  1. Really good video! I'm Dutch myself and have been following the news closely and it's fairly accurate. It is indeed basically completely useless to look at current polling for an election in November. The Netherlands is always pretty swingy and almost no party has a large stable voting base. It is not uncommon for polls within weeks before an election to change by 10%-points or sometimes even more. Parties can double or halve in size in the polling simply based on tactical voting and new developments. People who always vote for the same party are the exception rather than the rule in modern politics in the Netherlands. There is also the complete wildcard that is the BBB (farmer's party) that won big in the provincial election as a more or less new party. They could reasonably get anything between 4 and 40 seats.

  2. I agree, but they are literally called tldr, so yeah, you can't really expect to get 13 years of politics in detail in a single 10 min video.
