In a free and prosperous country like the Netherlands, we know the stories of revolutions in Europe. The vast majority only knows the French revolution, and we know, as the most decisive event for our country, the Second World War. At school it is taught to this day that we have been liberated by, among others, the Americans and that for a few hundred years we have had a solid constitution. However, there is not much left of what was once a “constitution” where the freedom of the people and the will of the people led the course of our country.. “We are liberated but are we in charge of our own country?”

In this time when people are (rightly) afraid of the power and possible abuse of power of our government, we have to ask ourselves what rights actually exist and which are included in the Constitution and which ones are hidden (have disappeared into the background). The “corona” emergency law, how dangerous is it constitutional? What power does the people have over the government?“We can even expect that we are on the verge of a great revolution.”

Simply put...
What is the real basis for our legal system (rule of law) and who is “the boss”?

What can the people do when there is actually a technocratic totalitarian power regime? Where should the line be drawn? And when does the emergency make law?

Questions that should be easily answered, right?

However, unfortunately, it is not so simple. We may even rightly ask ourselves whether we are indeed sovereign. In this blog I try to explain a healthy critical view regarding our constitutional rights, the actual constitution and the semblance Sovereignty of the Netherlands.

Constitution is not a constitution!
