What if Vlaams Belang and N-VA together achieve a majority tomorrow? That question has been buzzing through the Flemish corridors for months and recent polls show that there is a chance. You don’t even have to get a majority vote. A good 45% is enough to score a majority in the Flemish Parliament. But what does that coalition buy for it, once the streamers and confetti are gone? Make the Flemish national anthem compulsory at school? Paint traffic signs in yellow and black? Want to tease some culture makers together? Making a real difference in what is really important for such a coalition is virtually impossible.
