The Winkeltijdenwet was instated in 1976 when we had the Den Uyl government, which consisted of Partij van de Arbeid (PvdA), Katholieke Volkspartij (KVP), Anti-Revolutionaire Partij (ARP), Politieke Partij Radikalen (PPR) en de Democraten 66 (D'66)

That is a lot of left radicals and only 1 religious party.

There is no reason to assume the left wanted to work on Sunday.

And many others besides.

Really, why would you even try to argue something that is pretty much settled history at this point in time? The Netherlands historically had a very strong religious streak running through it and one of the last vestiges of their direct influence on Dutch society is the 'Winkelsluitingstijden' law.

That link is a wall of text. Could you please quote what is supposedly proving your point? Because I can't find it.
