The Dutch Minister for Asylum and Migration looks like Miss Trunchbull cosplaying Eva Braun. That’ll do it.
That is a completely undeserved compliment.
She looks much worse than that. Or maybe it is just her insides leaking into her appearance. She’s absolutely vile.
I literally looked up pictures of Miss Trunchbull and you’re right. Minister Faber looks much worse: like an older Miss Trunchbull, her face weathered away by the bile she spews. I think she would be thrilled with my compliment and I genuinely think this is the look she is going for, incl cosplaying Eva Braun ![]()
Interesting piece on Georgia Meloni in the Guardian recently - is she the neo-Fascist she started out as, or just tactically moderating?
She’s a viper—all the more dangerous because she plays the game so well. I got a bad feeling about all this.
Since this seems to be the thread where right-wing ascendancy in Europe is being discussed…
The results in Romania seem to imply again, as do similar results elsewhere, that Russia is continuing to successfully hijack the rightward drift for its own purposes.
