    Hello all,

    I'm Woeler and I'm from the Netherlands. I stumbled upon this forum while I was googling some news articles and it seemed like quite a busy place, which is good for a forum.

    The past few years my interest in politics has grow to a point where it could no longer be a hobby, so I decided to start studying it. I'm now a student in political science at the Radboud University in Nijmegen. Aside from that I own a small company in web design and multimedia which supplies me with a reasonable amount of money.

    Last yerar I decided to join a political party. Not a major one as I didn't want to be 'just a member'. So I joined a local party named VLP (Verantwoorde Lokale Politiek, or in English: Responsible Local Politics).

    Well, I should probably tell you about my political preferences. I'm a right wing conservative, and by conservative I mean a legitimate European conservative, not a bad(*)(*)(*)(*)crazy American conservative. I'm euroscpetic, meaning that I am against a political European Union. Besides being an atheist and a secularist I'm also an antitheist meaning that I think religions are harmful to society.

    Well that's about enough about me I think. So yeah, hi...

    I think things have gotten out of hand when people study politics at university and we have professional politicians. It's all wrong.

    Willkommen!

    Welcome

    Euroskepticism when combined with conservatism usually gives a very unfortunate result , i hope that this is not your case.

    American politics are so ridiculous that the liberals are called "the far left" ...
