At the VVD congress, many rural people wanted the farmers to be able to continue farming, and many young people wanted the builders to be able to build. Understandable, but also: own interests first. Let me ask you something that would benefit everyone. Can you please return the distinction between literal and figurative?
More and more you hear statements like: ‘Mán, I literally went crazy.’ If you keep asking, they’ve rarely actually gone to the attic with an ax to hack their way up. This weekend several farmers tried to justify their intimidating home visit to the minister with the argument that ‘the government is also coming into our houses’. Okay, that’s right, but as long as Mark Rutte is not in the yard uninvited: not Real Hey.
As the difference between fact and saying fades, the equal coin principle gets a little scary. The farmers also believe that their sector is being ‘destroyed’. What would they find an appropriate answer to that?
