Controversial election-favourite Geert Wilders calls for all mosques to be shut and the Koran banned in Holland - as German right wingers want undocumented migrants sent to camps in chilling echo of the Nazis
- Geert Wilders has launched his one-page 'de-Islamification' manifesto
- The right wing politician wants all Islamic symbols stripped from Holland
- He also wants to follow Brexit and withdraw from the European Union
- German right wingers, meanwhile, want migrants sent to special camps
Dutch
right wing politician Geert Wilders has called for all mosques and
Islamic schools to be closed down and the Koran banned in a one-page
election manifesto.
The
Freedom Party leader, who is topping the polls ahead of next year's
elections, also wants a ban on all asylum seekers and migrants from
Islamic nations, as well as a Dutch exit from the European Union.
The
divisive politician has been leading the polls in Holland for several
months, although he may find it difficult to form a coalition due to his
extremist views.
Geert Wilders, pictured, has published
his one-page election manifesto which calls for the 'de-Islamification'
of Holland ahead of next year's vote. Wilders' Freedom Party is topping
the polls with its hard line stance against migration and his populist
anti-migrant policies
Wilders proposes
closing all mosques and Islamic centres in Holland, such as the Essalam
mosque in Rotterdam, pictured, which is the largest Islamic place of
worship in Holland as well as placing restrictions on the wearing of the
hijab while working among other measures
Wilders'
manifesto was the first published by a major political party ahead of
elections for the lower house of Dutch parliament which are due by March
15 next year.
The party calls for a total 'de-Islamisation' of the Netherlands.

He would also close asylum centres housing Muslim migrants.
The
party also called for a ban on headscarves for those who work in public
and a ban on all other Islamic symbols deemed to be contrary to the
interests of public order.
As
a preventive measure, radical Muslims would be locked away in jail
while criminals with a double nationality would lose their Dutch
passport and face deportation.
Wilders also proposes that radical
Muslims would be held in jail while criminals with dual nationality
would be stripped of their Dutch nationality and deported
The
party summed up their programme saying 'instead of financing the whole
world and people we do not want to see here, we will spend money on
ordinary Dutchmen'.
Wilders said the manifesto was a response to '1,400 years of Jihad'.
In
polls, the PVV is on course to take 35 seats in the 150-seat Dutch
Parliament, about ten seats more than the ruling Liberal party of PM
Mark Rutte.
Meanwhile, the Alternative for Germany party (AfD) wants to build camps to house refugees who do not have the correct paperwork.
For
many the proposal conjures up images of the concentration camp system
that the Nazis built to intern political enemies in the 1930s.
One Green politician condemned the party's 'Nazi jargon when it speaks of camps'.
The
populist anti-immigrant, anti-EU party in the eastern state of Saxony -
scene of repeated attacks against refugee homes and individuals in the
past year - say this 'separate quartering' is necessary 'to maintain
public order and security'.
AfD
politician Uwe Wurlitzer in Dresden said: 'A separate quartering of
refugees without papers is necessary until the facts are clear beyond
doubt. This serves the maintenance of public order and the security of
all.
'Accommodation
in camps with limited freedom of movement is the answer but school
education, medical and cultural assistance will be maintained.'
