Right-wing FvD gaining massive support in polls, ruling party losing

NL Times  

The latest poll by Maurice de Hond shows right-wing party FvD gaining massive support compared to the votes the party got in the 2017 parliamentary election. The environmental assessment agency PBL and central planning office CPB calculated that the government's goal of 48.7 megatons less CO2 emissions by 2030 compared to 1990 will likely not be reached by the plans in the climate agreement. The fourth government party, ChristenUnie, is the only coalition party that hasn't lost support since the parliamentary election last year, increasing from 5 seats to 7. The turnout for Provincial States elections are generally also 30 to 35 percent lower than parliamentary elections, and that may also have a major impact, De Hond said.
