      It disgusts me to see this guy fail upwards. He used the tax office to target vulnerable groups, destroying their lives, and was found guilty in doing so. 0

      That alone should have disqualified him from any political position going forward.

      But no, dumbasses voted him in AGAIN, and then he failed yet again. Now we have a conservative majority with a xenophobe at the helm. Ugh.

      Somewhat related: to add on to the above scandal, I had my own run-in with the tax office after obtaining my residence permit almost 10 years ago. It took me 3 years to even gain residency. As soon as the residency was approved I got retroactively fined on not having health insurance while being legally unable to get insurance under the Dutch rules. I’m certain it was a part of that “policy” as well.

      As a second fellow Dutchman, I third this.
