entertainment">“This is not the first time that they have ignored corona here,” Heins said. “I have principles. I stop at 1Twente.” The DJ then shared photos of the drink on Facebook and wrote: “This is not possible. I stop! Today, June 18, I found this ‘party’ at local broadcaster 1Twente. Corona does not exist here.”
entertainment">The DJ says he has addressed director Flip van Willigen about the drink. “His response was that he thought this was possible. “Everyone had their own responsibility.” “No one had any complaints.” Legislation? I get angry about this. Businesses and people suffer. And the local broadcaster does this. (And this isn’t the first time they’ve ignored corona here). I have principles. I stop at 1Twente.

entertainment">According to Heins, who has been working as a volunteer for the station for years, director of Willigen has threatened that sharing the drink photo has ‘consequences’ for him. „I will not be threatened! Thanks to everyone I have enjoyed working with.”
entertainment">Also in Tubantia Heins discusses his dismissal, which he still supports. “We make broadcasts about corona every day. We interview the GGD, the mayor. We broadcast PO Box 51 commercials, so you also have an example function. But the director apparently thinks very differently about that.”
’Fuck You’
entertainment">Heins co-hosted, ironically, of ego show on 1Twente. And after he announced his resignation, he started the song Fuck You from Lily Allen and walked out of the studio wearing a mask.
entertainment">Director Flip van Willigen of 1Twente wanted, according to Tubantia only respond to questions via WhatsApp “Last night (Friday, ed.), with people who are in the same work bubble, have already been vaccinated for half and are also regularly tested, at the end of the working day we said goodbye to a colleague who was seven has worked with us for years,” Van Willigen told the newspaper.

entertainment">The corona rules would have been observed during the drink, but Van Willigen does not rule out the possibility that there were also a few moments when a number of people stood too close to each other. When Heins then took pictures of that scene, he was approached by a colleague who informed him that this is not allowed without permission.
entertainment">“I then had a conversation with him (Heins, ed.) and told him how carefully we have been handling the corona rules since the outbreak of the pandemic, which is also apparent from the fact that no one has yet been infected through or through our work. , while as an essential profession we have worked continuously from the studio. Apparently this explanation was insufficient for him and he himself decided to stop at 1Twente as a volunteer. Although that is his right, we always regret it when one of our 150 volunteers stops.”
entertainment">1Twente could not be reached for comment on Saturday.
