I'm dutch and this really is disgusting. But you have to understand that the Dutch population has no real problem with this. The exact same political parties were elected a few months after this scandal. It's just democracy really.

Probably because most Dutch people assume shit like this can't/won't happen to them so it's no biggie that the lives of 5 families were ruined. Even less of an issues for them if some of those families affected were immigrants and not Dutch natives.

Except it was a lot more than just five families.
