Wtf kind of result is that? What is the coalition going to be? Fascists and geriatrics and measles-infected fishermen from Urk?

PVV (35) + VVD (23) = 58, still need 17 more so...CDA (15) + SGP (3)?

I think they already backtracked from that.

CDA might actually keep their word on this. But i expect them to fold if we get some unholy vvd/pvv/sgp or vvd/pvv/50+ coalition option that needs CDA to have a majority. They really, really love being in the goverment and being all ''for the greater good''.

Funny enough, the neoliberals are loving the center-left in France too because of Emmanuel Macron, who's formed his own party and is basically splitting the center-left vote, ensuring a second round of the right-wing guy who wants to cut entitlements and likes Russia and hates foreigners and the far-right lady who wants to keep entitlements and also likes Russia and hates foreigners.

The PS polls so horribly that it's more like they're the one sapping votes from Macron rather than the other way around.

RT doesn't know what to do with itself when the only two candidates who can win are both acceptable to the Kremlin, I guess? Unless the French rediscover their love of Third Wayism or go Full Mélenchon (who as far as I can tell is kinda climbing in polls but not at a rate that would put him in the running for the runoff), France is either going to go Le Pen or Le Pen lite.

Update from the Netherlands:

Our prime minister swung slightly right in an open letter to the nation, saying "if you don't like it here, go away."

This video has been mildly popular:

the (more) openly racist holocaust-denying one is marine's dad, he has a feminine sounding first name so it's easy to get the two confused. he was the FN's head honcho for decades until marine shoved him in a closet as part of her effort to make the party 'respectable'

- Jean-Marie Le Pen is a literal war criminal and holocaust denier. Old as balls, built his racist party on the ruins of the short-lived petit bourgeois, populist and reactionary movement led by Pierre Poujade in the late 1950's. A political fixture on par with Lieberman or Thurmond. Kicked out his own party by his daughter.

- Marine Le Pen is the daughter of J-M and is everything you can expect from the offspring of a fascist shithead, but is more skilled at communication than her father and a bit more discreet with the dirty laundry.

- Marion Maréchal-Le Pen is the niece of Marine and is basically a mix of Rick Santorum and Ted Cruz. A bit more conservative than her aunt regarding reproductive rights.
