A lot has been written about the Forum for Democracy in recent years. Many scandals have been revealed and the party has been torn apart due to severe anti-Semitism and racism within the party. In addition, the inimitable policy choices made by party leader Thierry Baudet exacerbated the dichotomy. His current focus on critics of the corona measures and ignoring basic safety agreements doesn't always go down well with his party members. To avoid repeating ourselves, we started looking for an interesting new story. We therefore focus on a woman who is on the spot 19 of the candidate list: Carola Dieudonné (1991).
Carola commits herself 2015 as an intern at the Forum for Democracy think tank. She knows Thierry Baudet through a mutual friend and meets him at a JOVD meeting. The Forum is still far from being a political party and it helps organize meetings in the basement in Amsterdam. Carola Dieudonné has a Masters in Russian and Eurasian studies from the University of Leiden. You can therefore expect her to have an understanding of the political playing field in Eastern Europe.
In 2017 she is a FvD candidate in the House of Representatives elections and becomes secretary of the youth organization JFVD for six months. She then has a relationship with Freek Jansen, who is the chairman of the JFVD. Freek Jansen attends meetings of the alt-right group Erkenbrand and that way will be in October 2017 set up a meeting between Thierry Baudet and right-wing extremist Jared Taylor in an Amsterdam hotel. It is talked for hours between Erkenbranders like Fausto Lanser and Milan Bruynzeel, Jared Taylor of American Renaissance and Forum leaders Thierry Baudet, Freek Jansen as Carola Dieudonné.
The month of October 2017 is an exciting period for Carola anyway. With the JFVD she visits one “Freedom Summit” in Warsaw and she starts a new job as “Secretary Legal & Insurance” at the offshore company Allseas. This company is involved in the laying of the Nord Stream gas pipeline from Russia to Germany. A politically sensitive project that has been sharply criticized from the United States because it allows President Vladimir Putin to strengthen his position of power on the world stage. On the other hand, there is also criticism of the project of human rights groups. Because Putin is silencing the opposition in Russia and trying to sow unrest in Europe by supporting extreme right-wing and government-critical groups., such as Marine Le Pen's Front National. With her university studies on Russia and the Eurasian area, Dieudonné can advise Allseas with her insights.
In april 2018 Carola Dieudonné will be given a new position within Allseas. She is going to be “Personal Assistant To The President”. The president of Allseas is Edward Heerema (1947). In 2008 Edward Heerema caused a scandal when he wanted to name his company's new super ship after his late father Pieter Schelte Heerema.
That father was a member of the Waffen-SS in World War II. Edward backs down and renames the ship Pioneering Spirit, so that at least his father's initials still sail with the ship. The Pioneering Spirit is laying the pipes on the seabed for the Nord Stream project from Russia to Germany. Under pressure from Donald Trump, Allseas is on strike in December 2019 its work on the gas pipeline.
Much earlier there was a fuss about the Heerema family. In 1985 Edward Heerema loses summary proceedings against an anti-fascist magazine that has reported that he is on the mailing list of the black widow Florrie Rost van Tonningen and suggests that he financed the NCE. Edward Heerema denies in 1985 that he has given money to the NCE and claims to have no Nazi sympathies. However, the judge states that the journal has sufficiently substantiated the article.
The incident apparently did not teach Edward Heerema to keep his distance from extreme right-wing types, want in 2018 he appoints a woman from the top of the far-right Forum for Democracy party as his personal assistant.
