More PVV problems, Wilders ‘totally sick’ of media witch hunt

PVV founder Geert Wilders told news agency ANP on Friday he is ‘totally sick’ of the media focus on his MPs and will no longer comment on individual incidents.


His comments follow allegations that MP Eric Lucassen has large debts and is claiming social security and that Hero Brinkman drove off from a police alcohol check while still a serving officer.
‘This digging around in the past of PVV MPs is beginning to seem like a vulgar witch-hunt, Wilders said. ‘Of course I will deal with it if PVV MPs have made mistakes, but the media can go in the freezer for the moment. I want a return to normality and will not react on every incident.’
