Crisis in the Netherlands |
|
After it became clear that the Dutch also need to come up with serious budget cuts to reach the European 3% deficit rule, the French Swiss correspondent comes to the Netherlands to make a report about the crisis in the Netherlands. How is it possible that such a rich EU state has such deficit problems, and why are there so many families that need to survive with the help of food banks. In a food bank in a suburb of Rotterdam people explain what they think what went wrong and a politician from the Socialist Party gives his views, showing the large amount of empty office space, and houses for sale. It seems reforms are very much needed.
Activities: research, set-up and planning, accompany filming.
