What does this MP stand for?

Three questions for Daan de Kort. 

1. What drives you to serve as an MP? 

As a person with a visual impairment, I have experienced institutions trying to decide how I should live. I believe everyone should be able to make their own choices. 

2. What would you change about the Netherlands? 

I want fairer opportunities so everyone can develop their talents. There are too many barriers at the moment, and I want to remove them. 

3. Who inspires you? 

Theatre-maker Jaap Bressers. He has a spinal cord injury but, like me, always looks on the bright side.
