Campaign diary episode 6. And this week, first there is this scandal which has shaken up the political agenda. One more time, sexual abuse within the Catholic Church.
The Bishop of Antwerp Johan Bonny was summoned to the Prime Minister to explain himself. Alexander De Croo who also received a representative of victims and who then puts forward some ideas. The deputies will perhaps launch a commission of inquiry with the same powers as an investigating judge.
Work for MPs. Governments especially have the budget per head. All government looking for a few euros. Elio Di Rupo, Walloon Minister-President – PS, Alexia Bertrand, Secretary of State for the Budget, Open Vld: they talked regarding the billions of euros to be found this week. AND promised there will be no tax. We cross fingers.
This week, the campaign diary will take a little stroll in Flanders. Because it’s not just the Les Engagés party that is recruiting. The Flemish nationalists of the N-VA too.
On music that gives an impression of strength and power and hope too. Here is Jean-Marie Dedecker, independent non-conformist MP. Favorite file: confederalism and migrants. He had already been last on an N-VA list: 40,000 votes collected. This time, he will be at the top of the list… Ah the music on the videos. What a great invention. But if we change the notes and the style, the impact is not quite the same.
Finally in Flanders, there is a political subtlety that we know a little less regarding in the south of the country. And yes disguise and entertainment shows on television in Flanders, it is also political. We also knew Bart De Wever dressed as a panda during the 7th Star Night of Flemish television. Conner Rousseau, the president of the Flemish socialists of Vooruit as a singing rabbit. That was last year. And then at the beginning of September, Samy Medhi president of CD&V, the Flemish Christian social groups in dragqueen. He even won this televised competition still wearing 20 centimeter heels. Political strategy: be seen, known. This might bring some votes.
Come on, let’s remove that because it’s probably too political for me. Don’t forget we vote in 252 days.
