People in the Netherlands: we want to hear your views on divisive issues

This article is more than 2 months old

We want to hear from people in the Netherlands who hold different views on some of the more divisive issues of our time for our Europe edition of Dining across the divide

Where do you stand on the issues campaigned on by Geert Wilders, drug liberalisation, and the housing crisis in the Netherlands? Have you ever wanted to try and persuade someone with a different view?

For a Guardian series, we would like to hear from people, living in the Netherlands, who have differing viewpoints about some of the most divisive issues that affect their country. We have a regular column in the UK, called Dining across the divide, where we send two people with opposing political views out for dinner. Now we’re putting together some special European editions of the column. The aim is to find out whether meeting a person in the flesh and sharing a meal with them can bridge divides.

We’re interested in hearing from adults from every part of the Netherlands who are open to meeting and discussing opposing views with another reader.
