Arnhem and Rotterdam referenda fail to attract enough voters

DutchNews, December 1, 2016

Local referenda on building developments in Arnhem and Rotterdam both failed to attract enough voters, and both projects will go ahead as planned 

In Arnhem, just 24% of voters turned out to vote on plans to build up to 300 new homes in a part of the city known as the ‘wild back garden’. The 450 hectare site backs onto the Rhine and is largely overgrown, with some rundown buildings and a few house boats. 

Of those voting, nearly 65% were in favour of the development, which will go ahead as planned. The vote had been organised by opponents.

In Rotterdam, turnout was just 17%, well below the 30% threshold which had been required. Of those who voted, 71% were against the city’s plans to demolish some 15,000 cheap homes and replace them with houses for the better off. 

However, because the threshold was not reached, the referendum is considered void and the city can press ahead with the demolition.

‘It would have been better for democracy if more people had turned out,’ city alderman Ronald Schneider, who is pushing through the redevelopment, told Radio Rijnmond.

“…  Government

Let us speak of government. We're not speaking of your government, but of any government - the way it works, how it survives, how it has survived, the way it campaigns, and how it elects leaders. It's going to change.

Years ago, I told you, "When everybody can talk to everybody, there can be no secrets." Up to this point on this planet, government has counted on one thing - that the people can't easily talk to each other on a global scale. They have to get their information through government or official channels. Even mass media isn't always free enough, for it reports that which the government reports. Even a free society tends to bias itself according to the bias of the times. However, when you can have Human Beings talking to each other all at once, all over the planet without government control, it all changes, for there is open revelation of truth.

Democracy itself will change and you're going to see it soon. The hold-outs, the few countries I have mentioned in the past, are doomed unless they recalibrate. They're doomed to be the same as they have been and won't be able to exist as they are now with everyone changing around them.

I mentioned North Korea in the past. Give it time. Right now, the young man is under the control of his father's advisors. But when they're gone, you will see something different, should he survive. Don't judge him yet, for he is being controlled.

In government, if you're entire voting base has the ability to talk to itself without restriction and comes up with opinions by itself without restriction, it behooves a politician to be aware and listen to them. This will change what politicians will do. It will change the way things work in government. Don't be surprised when some day a whole nation can vote all at once in a very unusual way. Gone will be the old systems where you used to count on horseback riders to report in from faraway places. Some of you know what I am talking about. Government will change. The systems around you, both dark and light, will change. You're going to start seeing something else, too, so let's change the subject and turn the page. … "
