D66 Comes Up With Proposal for ‘Cabinet of National Unity’ D66 Leader Rob Jetten is Indeed Coming Up With His Plan Announced Yesterday to Replace the Caretaker Cabinet with what he calls a ‘Cabinet of National Unity’. The House Must then Appoint An Explorer to Find Out What Child of Experienced Administrators Can Temporarily Take On The National Administration.
SGP Leader Chris Stoffer Wondher It is also Possible to Ask VVD and BBB to Supplement Their Cabinet Team Themselves with People from Outside. Jetten can really follow that suggestion. The Wonder’s Whether parties Will Say “YES” to Experienced Administrators who Have A Distinctly Different Party Color. “I’d Love to Hear That.”
Discussion in Parliament about Calling the Cabinet ‘Inhumane’ A Discussion Arises about the Words Used in the House. The Third Speaker on The List, Van Baarle, Wonde “How Inhumane A Cabinet” Can Be If It Falls About “Measures to Stop the Genocide”. Those words are reason for chairman bosma to intervene, who calls them “unpleasant”. For GL-Pvda, that is again reason to intervene. Timmermans Points Out That Bosma Has Already Corrected by Baarle Twice, While Bosma’s Parliamentary Leader Wilders “Was Allowed to Vent Completely” About Asylum Seekers.
Van Baarle Points Out That Feels Limited in His Words by Bosma. “I take note of what people think, and I will continuously to speak out the actions of Israel.” “And the Latter is Your Right,” Says Bosma, “But I Said Something about your turning.”
PVV does not support motion of no confidence the PVV will not support a Possible motion of no confidence, Says Wilders. He is not sending the so-called rump cabinet, in which only the vvd and bbb parties are still sitting, home. “We will deal with it in a businesslike and mature manner.”
“We support good proposals and not bad ones,” Says Wilders. But he is no longer bound by the previously concluded outline agreement between PVV, VVD, NSC and BBB.
Later in The Debate, think leader of Baarle Indeed Submits A Motion of No Confidence Against the Cabinet. That will be voted on after the debate.
Think Leader of Baarle shows photos of deceased Palestinian children
Think Leader Van Baarle Begins About the Telephone Conversation That Wilders Recently Had Israeli Prime Minister Natanyahu. The Wonders How He can support him, while Tens of Thousands of Deaths Have occurred in Gaza Due to the Attacks by the Israeli Army.
Van Baarle Holds Up Photos of Murdered and Mutilated Children and Babies for Wilders. “Look at them,” he says to Wilders. “Do you have an ounce of humanity?”
Chairman of the Chamber Bosma (PVV) Intervenes. “This is not a debate about Gaza,” he says. It should be about the political situation that arose after nsc left the cabinet. But Wilders Still Answers: “I Could Have Brought Thirteen Hundred Pictures,” He says, referring to the terrorist Attack by Hamas on October 7, 2023.
On behalf of the outgoing cabinet, Prime Minister Dick Schoof, Deputy Prime Minister Sophie Hermans (VVD) and Deputy Prime Minister Mona Keijzer (BBB) present at the debate.
Bikker (CU) Disappined in Wilders Bikker (CU) is Disappointed in Wilders. Democracy is also about making Concessions and Being Accountable, Says Bikker. Wilders does not do that in her eyes. “That disappoints me.”
Wilders does not think he is response for the current situation. Hey hopes to Become the largest again in the next elections and already gives a warning to the voters. “This is the Last Chance Before Things Go Wrong for Good. And That Chance Lies With My Party.”
Bikker, Who is Visible Shaking Her Head ‘No’ At Wilders’ Words, Gives a Disclaimer to Those Same Voters. “Make sure you don’t give your trust to people who mess it up.” Bikker Says That There Were Plenty of Opportunities to Take Steps on Asylum and Migration. “I expected more Statesmanship.”
Wilders Accuses Cabinet or ‘Chaos’ PVV Leader Geert Wilders Begins His Contribution That this Cabinet is “A Chaos”. Wilders Often Starts His Contribution With Thesis Words. Now it Comes Across As Somewhat Strange, because in the Past Two years his party was of part of that chaos. The Public Gallery Laughs.
He now Mainly Blames NSC. In His Eyes, that party is to blame for all the political misery. Accordance to him, the PVV was “The Most Constructive Party” in the Old Cabinet. Among other things, because the pvv as the largest party up the prime ministership and then agreed not to introduce the asylum emergency law after all. “The Netherlands is Longing for a New Cabinet. As far as I am concerned, that will be the Wilders 1 cabinet,” Says Wilders.
GL-Pvda Will Look ConstructiveVILY AT THE CABINET, But Wants Action for Gaza The First Word is Given to the Largest Opposition Party GL-PvdA. In His Speech, Frans Timmermans Emphasizes The Fear That the Country Will Now Come To A Standstill. His party will constructively look at the proposals from the cabinet in the coming period.
But, HE WARNS, HIS party Does Expect Action in the Area of Gaza. “A Minister Has Resigned, so the cabinet will have to take steps on that point. Only then can we support policy.” As Far as Timmermans is concerned, Genocide “Cannot Be ignored.”
Fraction Leaders Speak the Debate Will Start Soon. The Floor Will Be Given to All Parliamentary Leaders, As Can Be Seen On The List Of Speakers. That is QUITE Common in debates that are about these child of things. Each Parliamentary Leader Gets Four Minutes of Speaking Time.
Official, it is still recess in the house. Yet the period in which the house does not meet this summer is different from usual. It Happens More Often That The Members Of Parliament Are Called Back To The House for Important Matters Duration Recess, But With Today’s Debate, The Count for This Recess Is Already At Three. Previously, The House had to Vote on State Aid for Shipbuilder Damen and There Was a Debate About the Situation in Gaza, which resulted in the Departure of NSC from the Cabinet.
VVD and BBB Have Divided Vacant Positions Themselves, Doubt in the House After the PVV Stepped Out of the Cabinet in June, The Vacant Positions Were Divided by VVD, BBB and NSC. Now VVD and BBB also because to fill the vacant positions Themselves. The puzzle for this was laid last night, although it is not yet know what the division is and who the new ministers and state secretaries should be.
There is Doubt in the House. The New Caretaker Cabinet Will Soon Only Be Able to Fall Back On The 32 Seats of VVD and BBB. Finding majorities for cabinet plans will then be quely complicated.
With the departure of NSC, Another Brick Has Been Removed from the Already Shaky Structure of the Schoof Cabinet. But Nothing (Yet) Changes for the Israel Course. You can read more about that here.
Parliament Debates Political Situation After NSC Departure The House of Representatives Will Debate The ‘Political Situation That Has Arisen’ From 10.15 am, as the Departure of NSC from the Cabinet is called in the House Agenda.
NSC Minister Caspar Veldkamp (Foreign Affairs) Decided to Resign on Friday After He Could Not Agree on Extra Measures Against Israel with the Caretaker Cabinet. The rest of the NSC Squadron Followed Him.
