Vooruit holds a national New Year’s reception in Bruges

“I wish you all a happy New Year and never forget: Red is trump,” party chairman Melissa Depraetere said at the New Year’s reception.

The big absentee is ex-party chairman Conner Rousseau. He resigned in mid-November after unfortunate statements about the Roma community and would normally take the Flemish list in East Flanders.

Vooruit is heading towards the June elections with, among other things, affordable care, better education and good public transport.
