So, when the NVA breaks Belgium in 2, will you Flemish join The Netherlands?  ;D

Yes, let the lost brother finally come home :D

But as stated, the nation will not split up even though it probably is his wet dream.

Bart De Wever is not a moron, I believe he will be capable to move things around here as long as some parties are willing to support him, and to cover his back.

We'll see how it turns out

Haha, dream on, our roads are worse then the russian mudplains and snowfields. They will never get true :D

It will be interesting to see what coalitions will be formed. And lets hope he can get things moving again, the last three years where a disaster on all fronts.

I did not had to vote today
You don't like to excersize your duty/right to vote?

As for Flanders becoming (more) sovereign and possible independant: it would become a bit small, but it might work. Or we could just go and unite the low lands... while at it, we ditch the monarchies, merge some provinces (a single Branbant and Limburg for starters) and so on.  

Oh and you Belgians have some funny party names.. why not rename Open VLD to VLD (again), Sp.A to SP/SPV/VSP etc.  Basically rename everything to make sense:

Vlaamse....
... ChristenDemocraten
...Liberalen
...Liberaal Democraten
... Socialisten
(...)

...Vlaanderen
ChristenDemocraten..
Liberalen...
Liberaal Democraten...
Socialisten...
(...)

Though being required to vote by law is a bit silly, everyone "should" would but they should not be "forced" to vote. If people can't be arsed to go voting and you make them, I doubt they will put any effort at all in making a decision on who to vote for. Hell, some people barely inform themselves as it is, basically making their decision on what's said on the television (debate programs etc.)...

You only had to do a short trip to your local town hall before you left, and gave your vote so someone else, it's not that hard to do at all.

Well if you don't want to vote just hand in a blank paper. An invalid vote is not counted. The only effect is has is that there will be less funding, as political parties get payed for every vote they get (or something like that). One of the reasons the wallon politicians don't want BHV split, they lose funding.
Not voting will get you a 250 euro fine, but if you don't pay absolutely nothing will happen.

I am impressed with PVDA, every election they grow like 30%. Belgium now had 50 000 communists.

Also respect, a local party here has 5500 votes, not bad considering only like 40 000 people know who the f Walter goveart is.

Good, yeah you shouldn't need to cancel a trip over an election. Though that should simply be a matter of granting your vote to someone else so they can vote in your name.  But you made it sound like you weren't all to happy about having to vote at all (being too lazy or not giving a damn about politics at all while perhaps conviently using the liberty to bitch and moan about the way the country is heading).   :P

Well if you don't want to vote just hand in a blank paper. An invalid vote is not counted.
Yes,  and I'd say that people who would resort to making a totally uninformed vote shouldn't vote at all (or vote blanc/invalid). Though I'd urge people to atleast try to make a reasonably informed decision when they go to to excersize their right/duty to vote.
