nothing will really change. They had to argue for months just to form a “coalition” imagine when they actually have to agree on somthing…. Nothing will change
Some all whatever dudes weird all of them are weird really specialy the bbb its all shit. But was to be expected the “older” parties are all stuck in the 50s and the rest are just, i dunno, to much lead paint or sonething.
Well i just read there “goals” and if this cabinet still exists in 6 month it will be a miracle. From what i have read most of the things they want will never get through the rest of the chamber. And that would be good btw. Yes the farmers and climate will be a disaster but then again all they do is yell they dont want that but a sollution never comes up with these dingdongs. So long debates, zero solutions, blablabla, collaps, new elections (probably). If you want to read there proposals heres a link (dutch but hey google translate)
The six months is a optimistic dream from me :) I dunno i mean i totally forgot they where still forming until i heard it yesterday. First they have to agree on who will be the face of it all… so that will prob take some time. Before we know it and after a lot of debate 4 years past and new elections will be held and nothing will really have changed or decided. Like you said we will see.

Dont have time for all the other bs.
