Teh suck.
Okay, so the racist fascist Vlaams Belang is declining rapidly, but in its stead there's an empty populist liberatrian party on the rise, and a spectacular succes for a conservative nationalist party that wants to separate Flanders from Belgium. With a quarter of the votes in, barely 24% voted for a left or center left party. I am really, really sad. And for some reason, lefties are celebrating the decline of VB? With the actual left declining, two leftwing parties not even making the 5% voting threshold, that means two leftwing parties will be taking up residence in parliament, holding 22% of the available politicians there. 80% of our governmental work from now on will be in the hands of a center-right christian party, a right-leaning liberal party, a libertarian crap party, a nationalist party and an extreme-nationalist party.
Please, someone, show me where the joy is?
