Elections 2024: “The alternative is the PS”, Paul Magnette poses as a bulwark against the “MR/N-VA axis”
The PS warned voters on Saturday against the return of an alliance between the MR and the N-VA. “There is clearly an MR/N-VA axis,” said the president, Paul Magnette, in front of party activists gathered in Liège. “The alternative is the PS”.

Socialists have no doubt: an alliance of liberals and nationalists will result in massive savings in health care and the dismantling of Social Security.

“There is a front of resistance that we must put up. The N-VA with its MR allies are only waiting for one thing, to make savings in health care,” added Mr. Magnette who was worried about the prospect of seeing Bart De Wever become Prime Minister. He paraphrased the words used by the president of the Flemish nationalists in an interview: “If he becomes Prime Minister, a tsunami of misfortune will fall on Belgium. We socialists will not let this happen.”
One week before the triple federal, regional and European elections, the PS wants to reach out to the 20% of voters who are undecided or who do not want to vote. “The next seven days will be crucial,” predicted Mr. Magnette.
