NL is currently similar to that one Homer Simpson meme, where he hides all the fat behind his back. We look good from the front, but due to procrastination of the government there are a lot of problems brewing beneath the surface. To name a few:

  • Nitrogen crisis
  • Housing shortage
  • Immigration crisis
  • Radicalisation of science deniers/politics
  • Stagnation of civil rights

I hope that now Mark is gone, we might get at least some progress in some of these, but we will have to see
