This map shows MR winning districts in Flanders (around Brussels), how is it possible?

The BVH (Bruxelles-Hal-Vilvolde) constituency covers Brussels region and 35 towns of Flemish Brabant.

I always thought that Bouchez was a great name, it seems very fitting for him.

Sammy Mahdi (the flemish christian (?) democrat party leader) in drag queen.

I was not ready for it.

I presume that the CDV strategy to win next election will not based on the muslim vote.

I saw an RTBF article that said it's more of an indication that the Vivaldi parties that are clearly set to lose next election are trying any desperate attempt for relevancy by trying to "people-ise" their party presidents. Of course De Wever was the first to really popularise this, he made his name through a game show, but now you see Rousseau, GLB, Mahdi all turn up on random game shows/reality tv and it's a sign of the utter desperation for any publicity as the Vivaldi PR machines scramble to find some sort of unique identity from the partiocracy blob.

Re: overall attitudes to LGBT, You see with the schools being tagged and burned down because of the EVRAS law though that cultural reactionary attitudes towards LGBT people are still somewhat present and if anything making a return (a strange alliance of far right conspiracy  theorists and Islamist alter-globalists), with conspiracies spilling in from France about "LGBT ideology" and "sex education classes teaching our kids about masturbation at 8 years old". So even if Mahdi is commendable for his attitude towards trans people, he may be actually shooting himself in the foot. We have a trans minister who when named nobody blinked an eye and we had Theo Francken be called out by his own twitter fans for making a big deal about women's underwear for men, but looks like we are going to inherit the worst aspects of the UK/France twittosphere and their braindead ideas thanks to the cancer that is social media and astroturfing.



there are good reasons to oppose Evra but none to burn schools.

It depends if one is criticising the actual proposition or if one has just read what the online conspiracy theorists have said about it. There is absolute chasm between the disinfo online and the actual proposition. There is no talk whatsoever of teaching 8 year olds about masturbation or even gender identity. There is talk of teaching 11 year olds about physical contact on things like legs and arms, and also how to tackle potentially awkward questions given many at that age have maybe already been sadly exposed to pornography.

Sorry but it's full wokist:
"L’objectif est de "prendre conscience que l’identité de genre peut être identique ou différente, se rapprocher, s’éloigner, correspondre, ne pas correspondre, différer, osciller, … de celle assignée à la naissance."

So? That is purely factual and untainted by Catholic or Islamic doctrine.

Two people died because of the storm, both in Ghent and they were absolutely evitable.

A German couple on vacation was in a park (the park was still open), but also... why enter a park if there's a major storm ongoing. The dad died, the daughter broke their leg.

In a child daycare, a Ukrainian refugee of 5 years old died because they were playing outside and a tree fell on the children. The 5 year old died while her sister and many other children saw everything. This is absolutely not understandable. One of the children came home say their parents and he only can say three things: blood, police, child.

You have to be INCREDIBLY INCOMPETENT and an absolute moron to let people play outside in that weather...

Our national weather service also changed colour code to orange way too late for that province, only 8AM. We know the storm was incoming far before that, and they've slept on it. Overall they did a good job. But communicate earlier! We knew this was happening before the morning, it's way too late to only change a warning in the morning when the storm was ongoing. The city services also communicated the change in colour code way too late.

Pure incompetence from many people across the board. Some Ukrainian parents lost their child while fleeing from the war.

Tragic.

All responses you hear: "was this it?". I found the storm to be pretty severe, i don't know why people are like this, but minimizing a storm of this extent should not be done. It's what led to this kind of neglect.

Someone on a british forum called netweather said: "how did the human race survived up to now without warnings". I responded this. A bit of an ignorant and stupid comment from his part...



Justice services are starting a case for child neglect now and manslaughter, while the city council starts an internal audit on what went wrong.

Why an audit? Just fire the employee who sent the kids play outside or, if she was forced to do so because of a policy, fire every manager who was involved in the development of this policy.

A few minor updates :

DierAninal, the most successful animal rights party in Belgium with its 1 seat in the Brussels Regional Chamber, has just lost that seat to Écolo : Victoria Autstraet will run on the green party's list next election (and its surprising given Ecolo BXL are pro-halal and kosher animals not being stunned before).

Apparently, she had been expelled from DierAnimal in 2020, they lost their seat long ago.

Another far right European "patriot" caught helping a Chinese spy get a visa. This time the guilty party is Filip Dewinter of Vlaams Belang, most known for calling for a "White Europe" back in the day. But helping illegals come to Belgium, and supporting a country still nominally communist.

And, yet, their opposition continues to be weak, instead of just calling them Chinees Belang.
