Belgian government collapses
This comes from the French Daily L’Express:
And the crisis continues in Belgium … The acting Belgian Prime Minister Elio Di Rupo officially resigned on Monday night. He has been trying to form a government. But after a serious step forward in October, stalled negotiations have led him to go to King Albert II this afternoon.
Belgian media have quickly relayed the information, "Di Rupo goes to the king to resign," said the daily Le Soir in the afternoon. According to the RTBF, the Belgian "formateur" should "hand his resignation in to Albert II." So it’s a done deal.
This can’t be good.

The fact that Belgium continues to function as a civilized, economically productive society, goes some way to prove that the bulk of politicians are a) worthless and b) not acting in the interests of society, but themselves. Belgium’s state of affairs also proves that modern democracy is a con-trick inflicted on entire populations.
