Quite some people here in the Netherlands have come to believe that it was 'the left' that has been ruling this country for many years now.
In real life, we've had government coalitions led by @minpres Rutte's center-right VVD for the past 14 years.

Wow, seriously? The Netherlands certainly feels more right-wing than its neighbours.
Issues such as outrageous housing prices for tiny flats, expensive healthcare, or the fact that life must be shockingly expensive for anyone without diploma—all apparently contributing to the PVV success (as if merely getting a few thousand foreigners out would magically solve all this)—rather seem to be the result of years of deliberate right-wing neoliberal policies, increasing inequalities.
Honestly, quite a few parts of Dutch media can give Fox news a run for its money when it comes to frothing at the mouth and shouting "THE LEFT" at their audience.
