OK, I knew about Frans' lawyer resigning. Theo is NOT in jail currently, I don't think, but Frans is, as of a few days ago. I missed the rest of that yesterday. I'm not sure how Frans' lawyer resigning is related to the breakup of the coalition though. What a mess.

I was told that there was a coup in the works.... Interesting watching it all actually happen.

Lesley--If you're referring to Minister Johnson, I was basing my note on the story in the Daily Herald, that he had left for some conference overseas. Daily Herald story

No sh*t... Right on. But they keep electing the same people. I have talked to several locals and there is a strong sense of "tribalism" around each politician. "my guy is a good guy."

Well, there's another good question! When even Sarah doesn't know whether they even have a firm agreement with the Dutch for the financing of the airport, something is seriously messed up!!

It's coming from World Bank. Politicians can't seem to find a way to get their cut.

Yes, I understand that, but the question is, since this was just approved last week, does that mean that despite all this hoopla, that the airport will actually get the money?
