The best of De Telegraaf

It is no wonder that European Commissioner Frans Timmermans and his chief of cabinet Diederik Samsom are throwing their weight into the fight to merge with GL; they are on the same page against nuclear energy. For GL, that action point was number 1, and Samsom as a former Greenpeace leader will not change that. Within the PvdA there might be support for a more positive view of nuclear energy, see recently former PvdA senator Prof. Rudi Rabbinge in Trouw, but the merger party will be against it.
