The affected parents of the childcare allowance affair are fed up. In an impressive and emotional letter, they call on the cabinet, the media and the Netherlands to stop fighting and give them the opportunity to work on their recovery process. But also a worthy letter that doesn't throw mud but where, despite everything that is being poured out about them, people keep looking for the connection. No matter how difficult sometimes.” Last week, the news was dominated by allegations from anonymous Treasury officials. It unleashed a real hunt for Laurentien van Oranje in her capacity as a board member of the Equal Recovery Foundation. What is happening here goes beyond all the bounds of decency. We parents - if asked by name and by name - make an urgent appeal to the media, politics and government: we want to rest and get on with our lives. At least what's left of it.” In the past few months, we got the idea that there was suddenly an “SGH gate” and then a “Laurence affair”. But should we go back to what it's really about and started? Since 2004, there has been a benefits scandal. A scandal caused by the government and carried out by the tax authorities. A scandal in which tens of thousands of parents and children were duped. Tens of thousands who had to go through “unprecedented injustice” as a result of a government that was “blind to people and justice”. Tens of thousands who received apologies from the Prime Minister who gave us commitments. Commitments, many of which have still not been fulfilled.” The letter calls on the cabinet, politicians, the Dutch Association for Journalists and the Association of Chief Editors to (re) enter into discussions.” As innocent civilians, we were invisible to media and politics for years while our lives were destroyed. Everyone believed the tax authorities, part of the Ministry of Finance. As victims, we have been shouting the whole thing together over the past few years. There was always some attention from the media and politics. But also games of divide and conquer.” The letter exudes peace and serenity, but also contains anger, disappointment, sadness and pain. They also experience support from many Dutch people who unconditionally see these parents as human beings, as the victims of a major scandal. They appreciate this. They, quite rightly, want recognition for the suffering that was done to them and no longer defend themselves against unsubstantiated stories. the reports were clear, it was not theirs. In addition, their unconditional support to Laurentien of Orange-Nassau and the people of (Equal) worthy Recovery who have always seen these victims as people and are doing everything in their power to assist these people in their (emotional) recovery. I think we should embrace and support this call en masse.
