What does this MP stand for?
Three questions for Rachel van Meetelen.
1. What drives you to serve as an MP?
As an entrepreneur in the fairground and events sector, I have seen how heavy the regulatory burden can be. My experience during the pandemic strengthened my resolve to enter politics. This is my second term, and I am committed to putting the Netherlands first again.
2. What would you change about the Netherlands?
We need to focus on SMEs, and particularly on the smallest firms. Current legislation and regulation weigh far more heavily on them.
3. Who inspires you?
My parents. They were politically engaged and worked incredibly hard. They taught me to persevere and to listen to everyone. In politics, Geert Wilders inspires me for his fortitude and for always standing firm.
