Political career

In 1991 he became a member of the Belgian Chamber of Deputies for the Vlaams Belang (the former Vlaams Blok). In his party he belongs to the most right-wing group, with a firm anti-immigrant standpoint. He said that a Muslim could not be a democrat. In the Chamber of Deputies, he opposes the naturalization of hundreds of thousands of foreigners and the covert legalization of illegal immigrants. With regard to the crime figures, he pleads for an honest education of the citizens. As an advocate of tough crackdown on criminals, he advocates the actual execution of pronounced custodial sentences, the death penalty for murderers such as Dutroux and Aït Oud, the deportation of convicted persons with a migration background and the active search for terrorist cells.

With regard to energy and climate, he takes the position that the third and fourth generation nuclear power plants, together with the hydrogen economy, offer an answer to both the blackmailing of petroleum by hostile regimes and difficulties with energy supply, and in any case, global warming is not unsuitable (although he doubts that humans are the most important responsible for this warming).

With regard to the relationship between the communities in Belgium, he took the position “good administration = Flemish administration” and advocated the introduction of subnationality in Brussels, with residents being able to vote for the Flemish social and fiscal system. According to him, this should lead to a stronger position in the final negotiations on the division of Belgium ( Brussels Congress Book , 1999). His view on Europe is confederal, with a strong emphasis on the principle of subsidiarity and the development of Fortress Europe to prevent mass immigration from the south.

On May 26, 2019, he succeeded in entering the European Parliament in the 2019 European elections .
