ok, so after a long time of negotiating after the elections, a new administration is now a fact. Who will be the premier minister, is yet to come out.

The parties negotiating are:

1. PVV: party for Freedom of Geert Wilders
2. VVD: Party of former PM: Mark Rutte aka Pinnoccio, now represented by Turkish Yesilgöz (her voice sounds like a trauma trained chick)
3. NCS: New Social Contract of Pieter Omtzigt (former CDA)
4. BBB: Caroline van der Plas (with a lot of former CDA members)

Of course, everything sounds quite nice, until the agreement is read. One of the items in this agreement gives witness to the deplorable state:

They intend to request permission of the EU commission to deviate from the previous immigration Pact (Pact of Morrocco)

Just let that sink in. As a beggar with hat in hand they want to appeal to the EU commission, the unelected bureau-and technocrats in Brussels to do something. This is exemplary for how much sovereignty already has been conferred upon these unelected bureaucrats.

Also, NSC, in typical CDA fashion, tries to level a constitutional argument, yet the 300 pound gorilla in the room remains left untouched: for instance, When Omtzigt commented on the administrative agreement, he referenced the ways in which the previous administration had run roughshod over the rights of the Dutch people, but left the Covid-measures out of the discussion.

The new administration wants to level crisis-management as a tool to ram through certain changes. In my estimation, this signifies only tinkering around the edges. What is more, Yesilgöz mentioned that the war in Ukraine remains fully supported.

I smell a rat. I would project the VVD to pull a fast one if they electorally will benefit from it. Another thing is that this woman hold dual citizenship, and is by definition a stranger to our country. Her being in such a position, with potential trauma programming, is concerning.

The outcome, policy wise, will not change a lot, except a few niceties as temporary reduction of taxes.

added: The Netherlands is the world second largest exporter of agricultural products and hold the reigns were it concerns the production of chip-making machines.

Further: As it looks now, Mark Rutte will move to Secr. General of Nato.
