The Dutch snap election 2025: A mirror of Europe’s stalemate parliamentary politics

The Dutch Snap Election 2025

The Netherlands held a snap parliamentary election on October 29, 2025, revealing the deep crisis of bourgeois democracy and political stalemate in Europe.

The election outcome represents a further stage in the power struggle among factions of the ruling elite, rather than addressing the urgent interests of the masses, as they face mounting social, economic, and geopolitical turmoil.

The ruling class in the Netherlands has nothing progressive to offer but war and social misery, and the Dutch working class remains leaderless without its own political vanguard party rooted in its interests and in the history of the international socialist movement.

The election result is not a renewal of liberal democracy, but a managed reconfiguration of a desperate ruling elite attempting to stabilize a collapsing bourgeois order.

Author's summary: Election reflects Europe's political stalemate.
