What does it mean that the Dutch Government collapsed?
In: 37
The Dutch government consists of a coalition of different political parties working together. If there are issues they do not agree on, they have to work to find a solution that is agreeable to all parties.
In this case, the issue was immigration. The prime minister proposed restrictions on uniting families, which the Christian party did not agree with and neither was willing to budge. So, the cabinet fell.
The government before this also fell. It just means new elections wil be held and a new government wil be formed.
