    Yeah I’m also Dutch and agree with this 100%. Forming a coalition always takes time. If anything I think they’re actually going quite fast. I was expecting the VVD and NSC to push back more than they are doing.

    Honestly I’m fine with them creating this coalition quickly. The sooner it’s formed the sooner it can collapse.

      Haha yeah exactly. I’m currently hoping that the PVV voters will get annoyed that the solutions aren’t as simple as Wilders always pretends, and then the next election we might return to some slight normalcy again. Or shit will get even weirder, who knows…

        If those supporters are anything like the right wing in other countries, they’ll probably blame the opposition parties for every failure of their own candidate.

        This is not how it will go down. PVV might briefly hurt when its government fails, but then they’ll start spewing their far right populist shit again and people will eat it up and vote. In the meantime the whole political conversation has shifted to the right and will nor recover.

        Having PVV form a government is not good. Not on the short term, definitely not on the long term.
