This week’s episode breaks down results from the 2024 federal election in Belgium, whilst looking ahead to the upcoming snap federal election in Germany. In Belgium, a government agreement has been signed 8 months on, leading to their first Flemish Nationalist Prime Minister. Why did the Government negotiation take half the time as last time? And why have the right-wing Reformist Movement topped the polls for the first time in Wallonia? In Germany, Sam and Chern preview the snap election that will likely see the CDU return to power under Friedrich Merz. What has so doomed the SPD? How many parties will likely enter the Bundestag? And what has fuelled the rise of the AfD? All these questions and more answered in this week’s episode.
