A general comment:

Dutch elections are like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're going to get.

Seriously, I'm glad that the PVV isn't the largest party and that a stable government (in Dutch terms) can be formed.

VVD-CDA-D66-GL seems like the rough equivalent of the German Jamaica coalition (CDU/CSU-Greens-FDP) to me, which some journalists consider an option at federal level this year. It would be funny if both the Netherlands and Germany had this rather peculiar government coalition set-up.

How I would compare the German parties with the Dutch parties:
CDU/CSU = cross between CDA and VVD
FDP = cross between VVD and D66
Grüne = cross between D66 and GL
