EDIT: See also the comments below which give some other aspects regarding this election and the involved parties from (probably Dutch) frens.
"AMSTERDAM (Reuters) - A farmers' protest party shook up the political landscape in the Netherlands on Wednesday, emerging as the big winner in provincial elections that determine the make-up of the Senate.
A first exit poll projected BBB won 15 of a total of 75 seats in the Senate, which has the power to block legislation agreed in the Lower House of parliament, with the VVD dropping from 12 to 10 seats.
The meteoric rise of BBB is a major blow for Rutte's governing coalition, casting doubt over its aim to drastically cut nitrogen pollution on farms, the single issue upon which BBB was founded in 2019.
Rutte's government, in its fourth consecutive term since 2010, has dropped to a 20% approval rating, its lowest in a decade. ..."

The new farmers party BBB got really many votes. Also/mainly because of the nitrogen crisis. The Dutch people protest against the nitrogen policy of the government and choose in big numbers the side of the farmers.
(VVD is from Mark Rutte) (BBB is a new party)

"This map represents what has just happened in the #Dutch #elections. It is the big victory of the farmer’s political party, the #BBB @BoerBurgerB.
Will this influence today's vote in the #Envi @EUCouncil?
🚨 Our farmers are not industrial plants! 🚨 "
This party is not good only Forum for Democracy is really awake.
BBB believes in nitrogen crises and climate crises.
Doesn’t it seem like BBB is build back better in some way? Or is it a harmless coincidence we should dutifully not question?
