Dutch elections - contrast with UK

[rhialto]

We had elections today. Unfortunately, the dangerous populist party PVV has won a lot, and the christian democrats have halved. So, whether there is going to be a left- or a right-wing coalition, it is likely going to involve at least 4 parties (judging by the prognosis; we're safely voting with red pencils again). It is also going to take more than 5 days to form.
