Bart De Wever en zijn grootvader

Deze en deze websites vermelden dat in 2010 "uitlekte" dat de grootvader van Bart de Wever bij de VNV zat (zie ook deze zoekopdracht). Of men socialisme.nl betrouwbaar kan noemen als bron, is natuurlijk een heel andere vraag :-) Mvg, GreenDay2 9 aug 2014 02:00 (CEST)

Aha, er zijn inderdaad de nodige bronnen voor te vinden. Dan kan die bewering er wel weer in. Bedankt voor je bericht! Met vriendelijke groet, MrBlueSky (overleg) 9 aug 2014 02:21 (CEST)
