06.10.2026 ⇢ The Day the Jetten Cabinet Stalled in the Senate
⌨

Morning papers lacked a common lead, splitting between President Herzog's criticism of Dutch sanctions on Israel, the arrest of former BND chief August Hanning on treason suspicions, and Ukrainian drone strikes on the Moscow region.

Midday attention settled briefly on the Nobel Prize in Physics awarded to Belgian Francis Halzen for detecting ghost particles in Antarctic ice, while De Telegraaf and RTL warned of explosives and heavy weapons fuelling fear of youth violence in Amsterdam-West.

By evening focus moved to France, where hundreds of thousands joined education protests that cancelled lessons, and to the third anniversary of the 7 October Hamas attack, marked by commemorations and pro-Palestinian sit-ins. The day closed in The Hague, where five outlets described the minority cabinet's budget plans meeting resistance in the Eerste Kamer, with a right-wing route closing and VVD finding common ground with Pro.

Het begint onschuldig met een match op Tinder of Bumble met een aantrekkelijke man of vrouw. Maar na een periode vol luxe cadeautjes en liefdesberichten word je gevraagd een ’kleine’ investering te doen en vervolgens financieel kaalgeplukt. Het oprukkende ’pig butchering’ veroorzaakt in Nederland inmiddels meer financiële schade dan ooit tevoren.
