If elections were to take place in Flanders today, Vlaams Belang would be the largest party, followed by the N-VA. But breaking the cordon sanitaire in 2024 is not an option. That’s what N-VA chairman Bart De Wever told tonight in The Cooke & Verhulst Show. De Wever is not a fan of political extremism and, moreover, figures such as Dries Van Langenhove make collaboration with Vlaams Belang completely impossible, it sounds.

“If you look at what the far left and far right have contributed to humanity, it’s pretty meager. If you look at countries where those people really rule, you really don’t want to go there. You don’t even want to go on holiday there, let alone live there. So I think the voter is not always right. Extremism is a wrong idea, period,” says Bart De Wever.

If so many people vote for it, then the leadership of such a party might try not to act as a party that constantly humiliates, insults and attacks others.

The N-VA chairman agrees that extremist parties should also be given the opportunity to participate in the policy if they get the majority of the votes, but then they must be able to convince other parties to cooperate. “You have to find partners and then my question is: if so many people vote for that, then the leadership of such a party might try not to act as a party that constantly humiliates, insults, attacks, razes, insults,…,” says De Wever. “Both the communists and the far right do that very well and get a lot of votes with it, but you achieve nothing with it. That is completely useless.”

The statement by Vlaams Belang chairman Tom Van Grieken, that he will “eat the N-VA if the party again denies its principles in 2024″, is yet another testimony to this, it sounds. “It’s a shame they get so many votes because it’s useless. It’s not going to lead anywhere,” De Wever responds.

For example, when I look at what Dries Van Langenhove puts online, I think, yes, sorry, but a decent person won’t do business with them.

Moreover, for him there are a few figures at Vlaams Belang who make a collaboration really insurmountable. “For example, when I look at what Dries Van Langenhove puts online, I’d rather not look at that, then I think, yes, sorry, but a decent person won’t do business with it. If you see how he talks about LGBs… that just doesn’t work. The aggression that emanates from it. That really doesn’t work.”

That means that voting for Vlaams Belang is really useless, says De Wever, who understands that people are “tired and angry”, because they are concerned, for example, by the increasing migration and by the measures against climate change they are taking. feel in your own pocket. “I understand that people then vote extremist, but it really doesn’t contribute anything.”
