PVV biggest party among Gay Krant readers
The anti-Islam PVV has emerged as the biggest political party in an online poll by gay newspaper Gay Krant.
Some 22.3% of the 1,024 people who voted opted for the PVV, up from 16.6% in the previous poll which was held six months ago.
Support for the VVD Liberals fell from 20.1% to 16.6% with the D66 Liberal democrats rising to second place with 18%.
The rise in support is probably due to the increase in gay bashing incidents, often by youths with an ethnic minority background, website commentators said.
