PVV in a panic: Asscher

Vice Prime Minister Lodewijk Asscher (PvdA) has said that the Geert Wilders-led PVV party is in a state of panic. In a response to Wilders' call to report PvdA-leader Diederik Samsom and party president Hans Spekman, Asscher told Nieuwsuur that the PVV is flailing its arms wildly about. PVV-MP Fleur Agema has said that she would file a report against Samsom and Spekman, as Wilders recommends. In Nieuwsuur, Asscher repeated that according to the cabinet, Wilders is boxing away an entire group, namely all Moroccans in The Netherlands. "He said fewer Moroccans. Full stop."
