Chez Nous (Belgian political party)

Chez Nous brings together former members of the Reformist Movement, the People's Party (PP), and the Destexhe Lists.[7]

Chez Nous is supported by the Vlaams Belang and the National Rally.[8][9]

Some of the party's ideas include:[10]

• The introduction of the citizens' initiative referendum;
• The decrease in the number of ministers;
• The privatization of RTBF;
• The ban on ritual slaughter;
• Tightening of the conditions for granting Belgian citizenship (knowledge of one of the national languages and ten years of residence and work).
• The ban on minarets;
• The introduction of a tax for digital giants;
• The abolition of the Senate.

When it was created, the political party organized a meeting in Herstal but it was canceled despite the authorizations already given by the mayor.[11][12] According to Chez Nous, 270 people were expected for the event. Several anti-fascist group meetings have taken place in the region in order to cancel the arrival of Chez Nous.

Following this decision, the party still held a press conference in Enghien. Leaders of the Vlaams Belang and the National Rally spoke during the press conference.[13]

On 5 February 2023, a meeting was to be held in Gilly in the Charleroi region, the meeting was banned by Mayor Paul Magnette one day before.[14]

Nevertheless, the French media TV Libertés held an interview with Jérome Munier.[15]
