The news comes out that recently a riot has arisen around a guide from a fishing museum in Woudrichem. During an explanation about craft rope, he said to a young visitor that you are doing the same Moroccans can tie up. The child's father had reported the incident on a social medium, after which there was a storm of criticism. The museum distances itself from the statement, but also says that it has been taken out of context and therefore unintentionally gets a heavy load.
