I think we might actually have a unique QZ-event here. A topic exclusively posted in by two Zoners.
Incidentally, the latest poll is in:
CDA (Christian-Democrats; conservative): 29 (currently 41)
PvdA (Social-Democrats; moderate progressive): 27 (currently 33)
PVV (Wilders; ultra-nationalist): 20 (currently 9)
VVD (conservative, even though they still call themselves liberal): 20 (currently 22)
D66 (liberal): 17 (currently 3)
SP (Socialist Party): 14 (currently 25)
GroenLinks (Green party; left-liberal): 10 (currently 7)
ChristenUnie (Christian; social conservative): 5 (currently 6)
Verdonk (the lying minister for immigration I mentioned. She was removed from her party): 4 (currently 1)
SGP (Christian-fundamentalist): 2 (currently 2)*
PvdD (animal wellfare party): 2 (currently 2)
* SGP seats in the House have, as far as I am aware, always numbered two, as their backing comes exclusively from orthodox religious communities which are constant as a percentage of the population.

Well, at least it's two intelligent Zoners. :-P
And thanks for the info on the polls! When is the election over there?

May 2011 in theory; then again, this is the 3rd *real* Balkenende cabinet (one of the official total of four, the third, was a 'romp-kabinet', which means a provisional cabinet, pretty much), and both previous ones fell prematurely (then again, prematurely?...).
Currently, a cabinet crisis might be brewing over the incompetent ChristenUnie minister for defence, Van Middelkoop, who is also thoroughly hated by the armed forces.
