Dutch Labour Party backtracks on religious insults law

Only a few days after the PvdA, the Dutch Labour Party, voiced support for a parliamentary motion to rid the law of articles prohibiting religious insults, its leader Wouter Bos now seems to backtrack on that decision. Bos has withdrawn initial support to this motion by the centrist D66 party. Since the motion won't be voted on until Tuesday, I guess there'll be a long weekend ahead full of bickering in the newspapers. Without PvdA support, the motion probably will not get a majority of the votes in the Second Chamber (the Dutch Lower House).

Remember me?


Epibratie
"I believe in life. I believe in treasuring it as a mystery that will never be fully understood, as a sanctity that should never be destroyed, as an invitation to experience now what can only be remembered tomorrow. (...)
I believe in liberty. I believe that within every soul lies the capacity to reach for its own good, that within every physical body there endures an unalienable right to be free from coercion. (...)
I believe in the pursuit of happiness. Not its attainment, nor its final definition, but its pursuit. I believe in the journey, not the arrival; in conversation, not monologues; in multiple questions rather than any single answer."
Andrew Sullivan
