More than six months after he was murdered Pim Fortuyn is, unjustly, still being depicted as a right-wing extremist.
He absolutely was not. In fact, earlier in life he was more of a Marxist.
He was a man who observed and understood the problems of our times, especially those in The Netherlands and concerning Europe, and wanted to offer practical solutions.
He threatened to tackle all areas which in his opinion are corrupted.
According to close friends he knew that his house was bugged and wanted to find out who was responsible.
The murder investigations still shows many smoke screens.
With new elections for parliament coming up, most of his rival political parties, left-wing to right-wing, are suddenly including Pim Fortuyn opinions in their party programmes.
Until not long ago they firmly rejected these opinions.
This shows Pim was right after all.
As he once said: "I will become the new prime-minister of The Netherlands. And should I not become prime-minister, then I shall still be the prime-minister".
Which he obviously did.
There is a crack in everything
That's how the light gets in
