Is the Netherlands going back 20 years?

So, it looks like we are going to have a new government. A coalition consisting out of Christian Democrats (CDA), a Socialistic Party (PvdA) and a back socks Christian party (Christian Union). A rather strange mix which is not a true representation of the Dutch society.
What will probably change:

  • Shops closed on Sunday. Sunday should be a day of rest,
  • Abortion restricted (back to the knitting needle),
  • Euthanasia restricted,
  • Increase of the high tax bracket,
  • Use of soft drugs not allowed anymore,

Yes, this is what the Dutch people asked for, NOT.
