In the latest poll, the Political Barometer conducted by pollster Synovate, the Right-Wing party of Geert Wilders PVV has dropped from 30 to 25 seats compared to two weeks ago, but still has one more than in the 9 June elections. The Synovate poll was conducted after the parliamentary debate on PVV MP Eric Lucassen, but before Thursday’s announcement that his colleague James Sharpe had decided to resign.Mr Lucassen was discredited when it emerged that, as an army instructor, he was convicted of indecent acts with two subordinates. In addition, some of his former neighbours have accused him of intimidation and violence.
Meanwhile, James Sharpe has admitted that he was in charge of the Hungarian telecom company Digitania when it received a record fine in 2008 for misleading customers. And a former girlfriend has accused him of physical and mental abuse.
