South-Holland FVD States member Ewald Kegel has dissolved his party membership and joins the new political alliance GO! from (also former FVD) Henk Otten. After the departure of States member Caroline Persenaire, Kegel is the second South Holland States member to do so the forum turn their backs on.
With the departure of Kegel from the States Group, the Forum for Democracy still has nine seats in the Provincial States of South Holland. Recently, the Zeeland FVD State Secretary Robert Koevoets hinted that in his eyes the Forum for Democracy shows too little interest in provincial politics.
It is not the first time that a member of the States has turned his back on Thierry Baudet and his party. Earlier Flevoland member of Parliament Cornelis van den Berg and Robert Baljeu from Noord-Holland already switched to the new political movement of co-splitter Henk Otten.
