Wow, that rules! What is your party called & does it have an online presence, like a program etc available to read?

Also on a silly note, Does the district name Borgerhaut have anything to do/ contain cognates with "burgher" and "haute"? a name something like the High Burgher [District]? Burgher Heights? :P

It's called Partij Van De Arbeid or just Workers' Party of Belgium . I tried looking online for English programs but so far I couldn't find it. We're really active online in Belgium, so it's mostly Dutch and French.

Lol, that would be funny. But Borger comes from the Dutch word burger, meaning citizen. Hout means wood, as in Holly'wood'. So it basically translates to Citizenwood.

Speaking of Belgium, there is this clip going around on social media at the moment of a representative in Belgian parliament (French speaking) trying to address the question of the Nordstream bombing and getting yelled at for it by other members of parliament who are trying to shut him up. Do you know any details about that incident? Was that a member of a right wing party (i would assume so since in Europe it's unfortunately mostly only right wing populists who are going against the anti-Russia narrative at the moment) and does this sort of thing happen often in Belgian politics? Was that a one-off or is there any chance that more and more questions are starting to be asked about this (and hopefully not just by right wing bigots)?
