What's your thoughts and the general opinion of this party? It seems to have been called left and right wing.

I did see reports that Allard allegedly called Somalian immigrants parasites and wants mass remigration.

His views on immigration seem bad, but I'm wary of this being media sensationalism to ruin the reputation of mullvad because they don't want people using VPNs.
