GroenLinks
GroenLinks (Green Left party), which has been led by Femke Halsema since 2003, was officially formed in 1990 out of a grouping of four small, left-wing and green parties – the CPN, EVP, PPR and the PSP. GroenLinks won eight seats in the 2006 general election. The party’s core ideals revolve around environmental sustainability and social justice. Elizabeth Taylor look-alike Femke Halsema is a tough debater and has been described by more right-wing parties as ‘a true liberal’.
