In a surprising twist of fiscal responsibility, Europe is taking a page from the playbook of true American patriots like Donald J. Trump and Elon Musk. The Netherlands and even the UK, under the leadership of leftist Keir Starmer, are embracing the DOGE strategy of trimming the fat off their bloated budgets. While the leftist media might try to dismiss these efforts as mere imitation, the truth is clear: Europe is waking up to the power of conservative, common-sense governance.
It’s no surprise that a conservative nation like the Netherlands is leading the charge. The country’s government has announced bold plans to cut $1.1 billion in spending by 2029, utilizing artificial intelligence to streamline operations and reduce bureaucracy. Interior Minister Judith Uitermark emphasized the goal of creating “less bureaucracy, fewer rules, less administrative and accountability burdens.”
“Netherlands copycats DOGE strategy with $1.1 billion in budget cuts
The Dutch government plans to leverage artificial intelligence to seriously slash its spending by 2029, Interior Minister Judith Uitermark announced to the nation’s parliament on March 14.
According to the minister’s letter, this initiative aims to create ‘less bureaucracy, fewer rules, less administrative and accountability burdens’,” as reported by Bloomberg.— Sputnik
While Dutch officials may not openly credit the DOGE strategy or acknowledge U.S. influence, the timing is undeniably suggestive. The bravery of Trump and Musk in cutting government waste is inspiring leaders across the globe.

In the UK, Starmer’s government is facing a media storm for daring to cut NHS England and save £45 billion. Despite the negative spin, it’s a move that reflects the influence of a more conservative approach to governance. Critics from outlets like The Guardian frame it as caving to right-wing pressure, while more populist sources like The Daily Mail capture the audacity of this “Project Chainsaw.”
Interestingly, even The Telegraph recognizes Starmer’s shift to the right, seeing it as a strategic move to “outflank his rivals” and adopt a leadership stance that echoes Trump’s successful strategies.
