[Politrickian]

After alot of internal conflicts in the LPF, the party of the murderd Right-Wing politician Pim Fortuyn, the Dutch government resigns.

The most recent conflict was with 2 members of the LPF, both members of the government(One was the Vice-Prime Minister)

This ends the coalition of the 3 main parties, The LPF, The VVD(Liberals) and the CDA(Christian Democrats)

I wanted to put this in news, but I couldn't. Poor me.

Oh and, for those who wish to know: Yes, new elections are coming.

There's probably still going to be a new right wing government in the Netherlands. So that ain't good new. The new coaliton is probably going to be VVD and CDA. But the good news is that the left wing partys are going to get more votes. And maybe the coalition will be the right wing VVD, the CDA (Christian Democrats) and the left wing partys PvdA and GroenLinks (that's dutch for GreenLeft).

The last thing we need is a new "paars" (purple; left and right wing) cabinet!

It screwed up in the past so it will do in the future

Central Left might be possible though. You never know what giving some blame to Jan Peter Balkenende(Prime-Minister, from the CDA) As we all know, the media controls the people. So if the media tells em the VVD and CDA made a huge mistake with going with the LPF.

There was a possibility for another time of government, with alot of the smaller left parties.

But CDA and VVD is better than CDA, VVD and LPF.

Oh and SP's campaign is to tell that CDA, VVD and LPF lied to the voter during the elections. This is quite true.
