GLD party leadership
•

Dear fellow citizens,
In recent days there has been some commotion regarding the role of Peter Green in the Dutch politics. Me (Pander Sols) and Trinc feel the need to respond to this.
A short resume of the facts:
- Peter is being accused of buying votes, more specific, votes from American marines (an invading force back then). Evidence for this seems stronger than the arguments from him against this.
- Peter ran for presidency in the USA!
- Peter has not been seen on IRC or on the forum in recent days, and therefore his commitment to the party and the government is being questioned.
- Peter's role in coalition talks has been marginal. Me and Trinc did a lot of work for this, while he has a party leader should have been more active.
These recent events have brought us to the conclusion we do not support Peter Green as our party-president anymore. From today, I (Pander Sols) am officialy a candidate for the party presidency. Ofcourse, any fellow GLD'er is invited to do so too, I am sure a lot of suitable people are around, but for now I just did this to send out a signal. I'll decide later if I want to go through with my candidacy.
We also asked our forum admins to remove him from his duties as a GLD forum admin, and from any other roles that he might have that include forum responsibility.
We are a young and ambitious party with some very active members and we cannot accept that our reputation and role is being destroyed by an inactive party president. A president who is also a member of the political elite in a country that invaded our own country and is an enemy of our allies.
We want to make a succes of our first period in the government, and we want to build upon these experiences in the future and continue to be a pleasant and reliable partner in politics.
We hope we'll get support from all fellow GLD'ers. This is not by any means a rise to power, we're not taking over the party or anything, and everybody is welcomed to discuss the recent events on our forum.

Goed artikel, ik wens je veel suc6 met je kandidaatschap en hoop dat je een goede opvolger mag zijn want op het begin deed Peter Green het ook prima😉
Had zelf eigenlijk wel liever Trinc als opvolger gezien maar ik mag daar eigenlijk niks over zeggen omdat ik geen eens bij jullie in de partij zit🙂
Voted.
Bedankt Sybout. Het is trouwens absoluut niet gezegd dat ik de 'opvolger' ben, het is gewoon een signaal wat ik heb afgegeven. De komende tijd kan Trinc zich ook beraden en als hij zich ook kandidaat wil stellen dan kan ik dat alleen maar aanmoedigen (geldt trouwens ook voor andere GLD'ers).
Het PP-schap is absoluut geen must voor mij, het partij-belang en het belang in het algemeen staan voorop.
met stemmen kopen is nx mis🙂
It is, and especially if you're buying the enemies votes who are trying to invade our country.
The fact that Peter ran for presidency in the USA itself is not a problem even if that country is an enemy of our nation. The fact he tried to buy votes is not illegal, but of course not good either. If those votes come from enemies of our nation that is not a problem, it depends if it is a political take over to put enemies of our nation in our congress or just to get some votes extra for honest congress members. Again the morality is low to buy votes, but maybe these enemy soldiers otherwise would vote for really bad people.
The biggest problem in this is that a party president must be honest to his party members. That he must be honest if others ask if this is true. Peter Green seems not to be honest and lost the trust of his fellow party members. I wish the members in GLD success in cleaning their party of deceit.
The fact that he didn't react on this article says enough.
Hmm this is sad to see.. Lucky for the party you reacted fast, wish you guys all the luck searching for a new/more active president
