Another parlement has fallen.. time to write down thoughts

While, watching the dutch news. About the fall of the dutch parlement that just happened this evening.

for those who doent know, the dutch parlement was comming into crisis while having a big depate about immegration issues and such. When a certain faction within the parlement wanted to vote to get rid of the person leading the immegration issues. This resulted into a crisis because the other factions in the parlement supported her judgement.

Anyways, with having seeing the news, the recent debates on this topic. I have not more to add then it was the 'D66' faction wanted to give a final blow into the parlement. In fact, D66 (a democraty party within the parlement) was the smallest faction of the current parlement. And they did not have that many breathing room. So, my thought would be, they needed something to be pissed of about and give the final blow.

personally, I don't get it why they waited this long. I mean the 'negative' vibes have been going on for quite some times now. first a political dispute about sending troops to afghanistan (where the D66 was against at). And then this part about some issue with a person that didnt have the legal papers and lied about here 'dutch rights'.

Anyways, seeing all the interviews, comments etc. This was about to happen anyways. With a small faction having like less influence in the parlement and they just wanted to show their teath. Like "we can be big.. and we can blow up the parlement". Well... Congrats. In fact they did. Even while they wanted the minister of immigration to resign.. but they knew in their back of their heads the parlement would back up the minister. So.. In short... Its a small bug in the system that made the parlement collaps.

And i short, I hope this faction (D66) will vanish from the boards after the next election.
