Any suggestions on a solution ? Seriously. I don't see how elections can solve anything. We cannot split the country (what would happen with Brussels) and we cannot stay together. Help!
I promised myself not to blog about Belgian politics anymore (too many huge reactions...), so I 'll cram a proposal in here.
Enlarge(*) Brussels and make it an independent city-state. Afterwards, Flanders and Wallonia can decide on staying together or not...whatever the (remaining) politicians decide.
I know this is a bad solution, but I 'll buy anyone with a better proposal a beer ;-)
