After 14 years in local, Flemish and national politics, Anseeuw (47) decides to quit. From an almost non-existent party, he has brought N-VA into the majority in Ostend. But in 2024, his name will no longer be on the list.
“I really like to do this just to be clear,” he says. “I do politics with passion, with heart and soul. It is also a responsibility that you cannot half-assume. That I do not want to do half-heartedly. If I am honest
with myself then I know that there are many other things that I would also really like to do in life. Hence this decision. “
