China and US Fighting over Chips & More Violent Extreme Right Protests - Lowdown #17

On this week's Lowdown, we'll discuss how Dutch companies keep getting caught in the trade war between China and the US, putting the Dutch economy at risk. Also, we'll talk about yet another round of violent extreme right protests across the country, seemingly part a spiral of violence.

After running through a handful of other headlines, we get to the Holland Hotline, where our international guest gets to ask their most pressing question about Dutch society.

In this episode, Ned's question is about how the 'water boards' (Waterschappen) work.
