Frans Timmermans is very shocked by the way Wilfred Genee treated him on television during the previous elections. “It became very personal at the time, especially by him,” said the politician.
Will GroenLinks-PvdA leader Frans Timmermans also vote for the Golden Televizier Ring? It was presented to him in the talk show last night Pauw & De Wit. “It is one of the few programs that I know, but the program that is in the photo underneath is a program that appeals to me more,” he answers.
Frans does not vote for VI
Pauw & De Wit shows photos of the ten programs that are currently at the top of the score. Under Johan Derksen, the hunting season: Most Wanted van Giel de Winter is shown. “I really like satire on TV and that would get my voice,” says Frans. Ehh, yes, yes. So has no idea.
Then about VI: “But it is an image -determining program and it is also a program that is a trend -setter in the sector in which you are, do we have to acknowledge that too. I have to look at it professionally. In the past, when it came to football I was also a guest a guest and I thought that was great fun.”
Less fun
Host Tim de Wit then asks Frans about his last experience with VI. “I can also remember that you were there once and it was less fun. Haha. In the previous elections.”
Finally, Frans on that: “It was then very personal, especially by Wilfred Genee, whom I had known for a long time. I suddenly thought of: okay, what happens here? But that is also a bit part of the program. If you sit there, then you know it can happen.”
