the 12 headed monster



On the frontrow from the left Uri Rosenthal, Mark Rutte, queen Beatrix, Maxime Verhagen and Ivo Opstelten. The

This row is an example how politics work. The 2 men on the outside did the inquiries in the first stage and the second stage. They got a ministerpost for their work. The man left of the queen won the election. He becomes the new minister president. Right of the queen, the big loser of the election 4 months ago. He waited for his turn and is now vice minister president.

This is really outrageous. Wilders who makes this cabinet possible supports the hidden backroom politics giving jobs to men who made this possible (the outsiders on the row mentioned). The bad thing is the lack of transparancy in the formation proces.
The average age is high ( some say 63) maybe because of the reliability of the men.
There are 3 women, to please the emancipation lobby?

How long will this awkward structure last? I think it won't last it's whole term of 4 years. Some people say 6 months, others say 4 years.
