Bought a house in England and his partner is based there, doubt he goes to a Belgian club soon even though its the only place where his stock is still somewhat high right now.
C'est son but depuis son rapprochement avec Bart... confédéralisme où les Wallons et flamands co-gerent Bruxelles. Par contre, Actiris a grandement besoin de réforme...il a raison qu'il y a des dérives (surtout chez les sous-traitants)
Népotisme aussi. Comme Clarinval qui travaille pour la boite de papa comme seul vrai taf sur son CV. Ou Dolimont qui bénéficie de sa tante ou grand mère pour être connu dans son bled. Ou Lucie Demaret qui retrouve un mandat grâce à son compagnon.
Here's where I disagree Simon : I know Belgium has a =/= system, but the threshold in their constituencies there means small parties have a difficult task to overthrow larger ones even in a proportional representation system. In the NL low threshold means easier for grassroots small parties.
Depuis quand un non-Bruxellois est accepté comme negociateur régional ? On accepterait qu'un socialiste français vienne négocier au fédéral ou un Flamand en Wallonie ? Il serait peut-être temps que les autres partis mettent le holà
Yep, the day after the elections antagonised his potential coalition partners. No wonder he is now saying there needs to a majoritarian system in Belgium, he cannot understand compromise.
The ultimate caricature of the narcissist post-modern politician Georges-Louis Bouchez of Mons presents himself as the saviour of Brussels : "Look what happens when you leave Brussels to be governed by people in #Brussels" - We are heading for the DCification of BE+EU capital
Tech companies now spend €151m a year on lobbying in Brussels — a 33-percent increase on 2023. With the backing of the US government, they hope to push the EU Commission while it's looking towards simplifying its digital regulations.
et SURTOUT ceux qui n'habitent même pas la ville la plupart du tmps. Genre De Beukelaer et son pote qui vivaient réellement avec leur secte de raellistes cryptobros à Chaumont-Gistoux et viennent au conseil communal de WSP en Tesla (alors que domicilié officiellement à 50m de la maison communal mdr)
Et en occurance Laaouej le veut parce qu'il veut être Ministre-Président et rien d'autre. Car lui aussi c'est un gros arrogant connard imbu de sa personne.
Je pense sincèrement que Bouchez veut ce bloquage pour justifier une réforme de l'état où Bruxelles est gouverné par la Flandre et la Wallonie (donc pour l'instant De Wever et lui).
Exactly, McSweeney is probably telling Starmer Blusky is only Corbyn supporters or some shit like that. Starmer just follows because as it has been written multiple times now, that's all he does. Follow. Not lead.
Ceux qui dépendent de lui restent potes. Mais Leisterh était pote avant que Bouchez devienne président et ça commençait à grincer les dents sur le comportement et l'anti-BXLisme primaire de GLoub.
Is there any signficant evidence that Starmer is up to the task though? He has not demonstrated that he is as able as he proclaimed he was, only that he is slightly less of a buffoon than Boris Johnson (obviously) and understand a budget more than Liz Truss (obviously).
Some sensible progressives (sometimes by accident like the Belgian greens) were actually telling households "sorry, you have to consume less, it turns out pandemic and wars initially cause a recession until we can adjust". It's not popular either, but it would have avoided the tag of Left =Inflation
No, because even an old labor dem economic policy would not have told people that they still needed to consume like they did during a massive supply chain shock and energy crisis after Covid and Ukraine War. That was Biden's mistake and the mistake of many centre-left politicians in Europe too.
It's because the investment is being done off the balance sheet of the major tech companies so its honestly not that big a deal compared to previous bubbles. Its just very poor strategy on their part, but they will argue this is a "positive bubble" and a long term project. OpenAI is fucked though.
