The trainer reworked his “super note” and submitted it to the different parties during bilateral interviews. New meeting this Thursday, in vain: the text is still considered too unequal by several presidents. It leans too far to the right and contains a series of proposals that even the Swedish coalition, which did not include any left-wing parties, had not taken up.

But while some showed themselves ready to continue and intensify negotiations, the response was negative at Vooruit. The socialists are demanding that large assets be put to the tune of 20 billion euros while at present, it would be health care first which would be pressed to make savings. The tax on capital gains included in the note – and the subject of a dispute in August between Vooruit and the MR – would mainly serve to achieve an additional tax reduction, it was deplored.

Another source provided another version of the facts: most of the exercise would come from labor market and pension reforms. The tax cut would only have a limited scope and would not be at the heart of the discussion either. Furthermore, a consensus would emerge to impose a contribution to major heritage sites, a request that Vooruit would be far from being the only one to make. “Four of the five parties are showing themselves to be constructive,” it was said.

Other parties than Vooruit are having great difficulty with this “super score”. Among the Engagés and the CD&V, dissatisfaction also prevailed but the centrists want to continue and even intensify negotiations to move the lines. “The proposals are not going to change by magic,” it was emphasized. “You have to get into negotiation mode, continue to negotiate for a few weeks. In August, we were able to go far this way,” it was noted.

Negotiations then failed around a dispute between the taxation of capital gains between the MR and Vooruit. This failure led Mr. De Wever to put his apron back on for the first time before being revived following mediation led by the president of Les Engagés, Maxime Prévot.

Trainer Bart De Wever is now looking at what happens next and what initiatives he could still take. But he would have suggested Thursday noon that he would not propose a new balance. No plenary or bilateral meetings are planned at this time. On Monday, the trainer is expected at the King to report on a mission which today appears very compromised.
