BRITT FOR PRESIDENT | De Warme Winkel

Hey hello, have you also had enough of the muddling? Of half-hearted compromises, rearguard actions, and that eternal twisting? Do you also wonder: couldn't it just be better? Isn't it time that someone really tackled the problems and said it like it is, instead of drifting along helplessly? Then there is good news: Britt is going to get involved. Unburdened by administrative knowledge or skill, not chained by party discipline, and free from old-fashioned morality, this fresh wind flies in with a straight leg. Waar Den Haag and Brussels often seem to pull the strings, Britt starts locally: where big words break down on practice. Meanwhile, chasms are becoming deeper, bubbles stronger, and it turns out how vulnerable our democracy is. With this discursive thigh-slapper, De Warme Winkel investigates if, and how, to speak with our fact-free fellow human beings if arguments no longer matter and science is also just an opinion.
