Will it be a Christmas deal or dismissal? Prime Minister De Wever (N-VA) buys himself time until Christmas to reach an agreement on the budget, but not everyone can laugh at that. “Only Bouchez is happy with this.” The question is whether a new postponement will make much difference, because De Wever continues to stick to the same menu and MR to the same protest. And yet it is possible that his threat of dismissal will gain momentum this time: “If he already feels within two weeks that it will not work, it should not necessarily last until Christmas.”
