Set Flanders Free

 Click here to see the full sized picture 08/07/2008 :: The June 10, 2007 elections were a clear signal that the Flemings have had enough. They want newcomers, whether these be Walloons or immigrants, to respect the Dutch identity of Flanders. This demand for respect on the part of the Flemish combined with the refusal of the French-speaking Belgians to renounce their “acquired rights” have led to a political stalemate. For six months it was impossible to form a government, then an “interim government” was formed, and after that a “real” government which was unable to agree on policies and fell as a consequence. More than 13 months have been lost. This situation cannot continue for much longer.

The Vlaams Belang advocates the breakup of Belgium. Flanders has to pull the plug on Belgium. The fundamental differences of opinion between Flanders and Wallonia prevent the application of efficient policies to deal with the problems facing our nations. It is in the interest of both Flanders and Wallonia, as well as Europe, that Belgium be abolished.

Our party, which is the largest party in the Flemish regional parliament, has been advocating Flemish independence since it was founded. More and more Flemings are backing this demand.
