Rob Goossens finds the way Sigrid Kaag speaks about Johan Derksen and Today Inside ‘a bit embarrassing’. “She should have said, ‘John, I should have just kept my mouth shut’.”
Sigrid Kaag, the political leader of D66 and the Minister of Finance, has been very critical of Johan Derksen and his Today Inside program several times in recent weeks. However, she has now revealed to the camera that she has never seen the talk show and that she had never even heard of it until recently.
Arrogant
According to Hart van Nederland reporter Sam Haegens, it is not really a choice to have an opinion about it. “Isn’t it a little bit arrogant to judge someone when you’ve never seen a show?”, he asks her in front of the camera (see clip below).
Sigrid then says: “I have seen the fragments and I have made a statement, just like many in the Netherlands – not just me, just make a list – about the statements. Not the person.”
Shut up
TV connoisseur Rob Goossens finds it shockingly arrogant. “A bit embarrassing, isn’t it? I myself was a member of her party – that’s my childhood sin – and all those people actually think that they should be allowed to vote twice, because they have really deepened and PVV voters don’t really know what it’s about,” he says. he in RTL Boulevard.
“And then she will now make statements about a program that she has never seen,” continues the irritated Rob. “Of course she’s done that before. Instead of saying now: ‘John, I should have just kept my mouth shut’, she just does it again. I find it painful.”
