Here in Scandinavia, the biggest issue since the late 80's is coalition governments, tiny parties with very low figures get major influence by pressuring themselves into office on account of their weight being needed to shift a majority. At one point, around 2000, a party with a little over 4% managed to snag the prime minster post, it was their condition for joining the cabinet (which consisted of Right, Left and Christian Peoples Party... what a mess). |
Wow. Seriously. I had no idea. That just... defies logic.
