If it's any consolation, there is like one nuclear plant in the whole of the Netherlands and it provides less than 5% of Dutch electricity. So it's not like a pro- or anti-nuclear party will matter very much in that respect (especially as even if you elect the most pro-nuclear power party on earth, it will take about eight decades to build given the amusing failures of all new builds going on).
I already tried to explain this, but to no avail. Anyway, no person with "radical and extremely far left" politics would vote for the party that increasingly often out-right-wings the VVD on economic issues.

BRAKING NEWS: Single issue voters are not exclusive to the Christian Right
The thing is: there are no actual pro-nuclear single-issue voters in the Netherlands. There will be no new nuclear power plant.

Anyway, voted Hamon in the poll.

David you must be the only PVV/Benoit Hamon voter in the world lol.
Oh I wouldn't actually vote for Hamon (would be inclined to vote for Dupont-Aignan in the first round), I voted for him in this poll because it only includes candidates on the left -- and I like him better than all the others on the left.
