Mayor Kuurne sounds the alarm: “Valuable people leave local politics”
He himself does not think about stopping, but he admits that the accusations on social media affect him.
“People are angry, even furious”
“Politics is sick. People are angry, even furious. I understand many of them. Yes I am also angry at many apathetic decisions. The energy bill is an asshole, but at the same time it is sad how people deal with people. Let’s not talk about the ailing roads in which policy is conducted. They want to prove that the country no longer works but at the expense of all of us. And vice versa, there are politicians, who have become aliens since they started working in Brussels. It’s amazing how I hear certain people doing things, while hearing completely different things from residents. As citizens, we must learn to accept that we cannot demand everything but that politicians must stop pleasing only our own lobby group,” it still sounds.
