Little is now left of the optimism that was visible at the start of the formation of the PVV, VVD, BBB and NSC. The forming parties sneer at each other. Is this formation round doomed?
This weekend it was Pieter Omtzigt who slammed the messaging platform On 1 failed to condemn an argument by Farmers Defense Force leader Mark van den Oever, the NSC leader found.
Van den Oever had said that Minister Adema and NSC MP Holman ‘will be in the center of attention’ and that he has ‘taken a real dislike to them’.
‘Veiled threats are not OK. You just distance yourself from that,” Omtzigt tweeted to Van der Plas. It is yet another sign that things are not going well at the formation talks.
What do you think, does this formation attempt still make sense? Or should the participating parties pull the plug and look for other options? Let us know and participate in the Statement of the Day.
