BP and LSD were the government, LSD lost 2 seats, but the gain from BP was bigger than the loss 3 seats).
Of course many new citizens have Belgium as origin so BP got far more votes than before. Almost as much votes as one month ago in total for all the parties. The gain in seats was not that big but last month BP won the most seats by tactical voting. This time that was far more difficult.
As always LSD organised their party members so with tactical voting they gained some seats. This party knows and uses the game mechanics.
GLD won a lot, from 2 to 6 seats, but they had more candidates now and was active in all regions. So they could easily gain votes from others. It became the third party of our nation.
I&W lost 1 seat and became somewhat smaller.
All parties got more votes than last month except GVD. But GVD had 5 congress members before that did not write a single comment in one month. So this loss is the right penalty.

The biggest party will lead the formation to a new government. All other parties are in contact with BP to see what influence they can have on the next government.
Hopefully our nation will have a new government soon.
