The new government may have a problem as Mona Keijzer (CDA), who was fired from the previous government as Deputy Minister of Economic Affairs in the fall when she publicly spoke out against the government's lockdowns and proposals for vaccination mandates, is considering taking up her seat in parliament, a scenario the CDA had tried to avoid. The seat would be hers when Wopke Hoekstra resigns from parliament to become minister next week. If the CDA declare her persona non grata, Keijzer, who crossed the "preference threshold" by receiving more than 18,000 personal votes in March, could still take up the seat and the government would already be down to 76 seats, a majority of 1.
