Politics'blog

Local issues from a local view

Politics'blog... the beginning

Politics? Politics.

I am politically very engaged. In fact, I discovered that most of my posts on my
weblog were politically oriënted. My blog wasn't intended to be that way.

But there was something else. I discovered in a chat with Pirkaf that people abroad have different views and (more important) different assumptions on politics and political decisions.

And the idea was born in my head: Wouldn't it be great, when politically engaged people from all over the world could share their ideas and knowledge at one central blog? It could be very interesting to read. I can see in my newspaper what goes on in another country. But I cannot see how people abroad are experiencing things. I think it is interesting to see local (probably a bit biased) views on politics.

Want to share? Join the group! It is open to everyone who wants to share something.

Only one simple question to (potential) writers: Put an aerea-code before your posts. Like:


[NL] Elections

This way, one can read where the text originates from, without having the need to search profiles of writers.

I have opened the forums. To begin with, There will be only one forum, for ideas, comments et cetera. When necessary, there will be created more forums.





a Discussion about Europe?

hi, good idea. beware only of polish :wink:. they may dominate this group.the shit which happens now in our politics makes people really angry. not all of them, of course, but this part which is younger, richer, better educated. i don't think you'll find via the internet somebody who supports our current governement, president and their allies.
conclusion: you may find on this site quite a lot of description of our country's political reality. it will be rather pesimistics.
or maybe not. personally, i used to study political science but now i'm sa disgusted that i prefere not to anlyse the situation.
you'll see.
good luck

I'll see what happens... A well-balanced opinion in favor or disfavor of any government is pretty okay.

Only a flood of opinions on the same subject is not good. It's better to do so in comments. Discussions can be followed up in a forum-topic. If you feel there can be some discussion, you can open a new topic in the discussions-forum...
