Immigration has turned the Netherlands into a tinderbox
Release Date

Summary
In the Netherlands, a tough immigration and asylum bill was rejected by the Senate, with divisions even within the ruling coalition. Despite strong public demand to reduce immigration, the government has struggled to deliver effective measures, fueling distrust. Policies such as dispersing asylum seekers across communities have sparked local protests and resistance, worsened by a lack of consultation. As asylum arrivals continue, many voters feel their concerns are ignored, leading to declining trust in politics and rising social tension.
