“From the start, he discussed, criticized the decisions, blocked the reforms,” said the socialist regarding the president of the MR, coalition partner. “On VTM’s ‘Special Forces’ show, Mr. Bouchez was called a ‘dead weight’ for the group. I mightn’t put it better. The government wasted too much energy and time on him. “

The MR should not be given more power than he has. If Mr. Bouchez blocks everything, we also have other options. The MR is not essential. We can perfectly form another majority with Les Engagés
Mr. Magnette also believes that an agreement on the long-awaited tax reform is still possible. All the parties, with the exception of the MR, agree on the main principles. The Iranian visa affair is separate from that and, for the president of the PS, “we must not give the MR more power than he has. If Mr. Bouchez blocks everything, we also have other options. The MR is not essential. We can perfectly form another majority with Les Engagés”.
Tax reform: no agreement in sight even if “the discussion was good”
Finally, while Vlaams Belang is making strong progress in the polls, Mr. Magnette reaffirms the position of the PS, namely that there will be no negotiations with the far-right party. “If they want independence, let them have a referendum. It’s the only democratic procedure. And maybe now is the time to do it. I really mean it. Flemings will say ‘no’. This debate can then be definitively thrown in the trash.”
