With 76 seats (out of 150 in total) in the Chamber according to projections made by Ipsos, the Vivaldi coalition (Open VLD, MR, PS, Vooruit, Ecolo, Groen and CD&V brought together 87 seats in 2019) barely has a majority, d ‘a seat ! Suffice to say that in these conditions, and always in any hypothesis (this is a poll, not the election), it is not renewable. Within it, the PS loses three seats compared to the 2019 elections, Ecolo also loses three, Groen four, the CD&V two, and the Open VLD, the Prime Minister’s party, no less than five. Only the MR (plus one seat) and Vooruit (plus five seats, which is still two fewer than in our June survey) benefit from their participation in the federal government. In opposition, the N-VA is no longer at all dashing, giving up six seats, while Vlaams Belang is wandering, gaining seven. Result: we have here a fragmented Federal Parliament which reveals a likely long crisis politics following the elections next year.
