Local: not too happy, a populist party holds the majority and they’re only looking out for their own interest. Also generally our municipality tends to be too ambitious, pouring lots of money into stuff that doesn’t benefit the residents.
Country (the Netherlands): we had elections in november 2023, the (right-wing) cabinet was formed in july 2024, and it blew up in may 2025. New elections will be next month, and the right-wing Islamophobic Israel lover is leading the polls once again, even though they didn’t make good on any of their promises in their current reign. So really unhappy about that.
