It was the beginning of a march that culminated in an as yet 2010, when the party with 24 seats was the third party in the Netherlands, after which they got great influence as tolerated party minority government on government policy. After the fall of the government decreased both the power and the supporters of the Freedom Party, but the party is far from disappeared from view.

With the rapidly growing influence of the Freedom Party raised more and more questions about the party. By which ideas the party is guided? Is the PVV populist or even extreme right or does it just right in a way that we do not know in Netherlands? And what does the organization of the 'free members' PVV out? Geert Wilders really all in control? How many people are in one way or another active for the party? In, hardly less relevant, What about the financing of the PVV? Thanks Koen Vossen these and other questions for the first time unequivocally answered.
