06.11.2026 ⇱ The Day Police Arrested 150 at Microsoft's Datacenter
⌹

Morning coverage still followed the US midterm fallout, with Hegseth rejecting an impeachment push and Trump replacing his chief of staff with hardliner Stephen Miller.

The previous day's aviation disruption continued with fresh bomb threats against Prague flights including one to Amsterdam, fighter escorts over Hungary and evacuations at Irish media firms, ending with an arrest at Schiphol after no explosives were found.

Attention then moved to Amsterdam, where hundreds broke through fences at Microsoft's datacenter construction site before riot police cleared the terrain and detained 150 to 200 people.

In The Hague coalition leaders canvassed parliament corridors for opposition backing for next week's Tax Plan vote, with Jetten portrayed as increasingly isolated.

The evening closed on a Nasdaq tech sell-off reviving AI-bubble fears and an NCTV warning that cyber resilience was lagging.

Seksueel misbruikte mannen doen nog minder vaak dan vrouwen aangifte bij de politie. Aangevers omschrijven politiecontact als ‘ontmoedigend’ en soms ronduit ‘vijandig’, blijkt uit politieonderzoek. „Als je als man veel emotie toont, ben je niet mannelijk genoeg.”

Vrienden, betrokken ouders en met de ambitie om zijn diploma te halen. Voor zijn omgeving leek de 19-jarige Muhammed K. een doodgewone scholier, maar achter zijn beeldscherm ontpopte de Eindhovenaar zich tot een fanatieke jihadist die wapens zocht en bereid was namens de Islamitische Staat een aanslag te plegen.

Met het verwijt aan het kabinet ’casinopolitiek’ te spelen en een sneer richting de VVD, zet CDA-leider Henri Bontenbal voor de derde keer in korte tijd de verhoudingen in de coalitie onder druk. Waarom gooit de man die in de campagne bekend werd door zijn constante oproep tot meer fatsoen telkens op belangrijke politieke momenten publiekelijk de knuppel in het hoenderhok? Den Haag hinkt op twee gedachten: onhandige flapuit, of drammerige dominee.

De Amerikaanse kiezer heeft afgerekend met de keizer en zijn slippendragers. Maar de impopulariteit van Trump betekent niet dat Democraten nu machtig of eendrachtig genoeg zijn om het leven van ontevreden kiezers materieel beter te maken – of populair genoeg om de presidentsverkiezingen van 2028 te winnen.

Het kabinet gaat de boetes voor het overtreden van arbeidswetten in één keer met ruim twintig procent verhogen. Het overtreden van de regels op het gebied van minimumloon, arbeidstijden en arbeidsomstandigheden wordt daarmee fors strenger bestraft. Ook komt het kabinet met een plan om een einde te maken aan een ’sluiproute’ waarmee mensen van buiten de Europese Unie in Nederland worden gedetacheerd.
