07.11.2026 ⇱ The Day a Gunman Killed Nine in Krakow
⌹

Morning papers in The Hague kept the Tax Plan standoff centered on CDA leader Bontenbal, who spoke of a crucial week and thanked CU and 50Plus while staying silent on VVD, as commentators warned the coalition was driving toward a clash over wealth tax and a possible cabinet crisis.

Midday attention briefly returned to Washington, with analysis of what Democrats would do with congressional majorities under Trump, the appointment of Stephen Miller as chief of staff, and the rejection of California's billionaire tax.

From mid-afternoon all titles shifted to Krakow, where a man fired from a car on the central square, killing six and wounding fifteen. Police arrested a 24-year-old Pole in military clothing, described as inspired by far-right ideology, before finding three more bodies, likely family, in his home, bringing the toll to nine.

Kees Wassenaar (82) woont al sinds 1989 in hetzelfde huis in Loosdrecht. Geen vuiltje aan de lucht, tot hij een jaar geleden ontdekte dat de woonbestemming van zijn woning op wonderbaarlijke wijze is verdwenen. Wassenaar bezit slechts ’agrarische grond’. Foutje, even de gemeente bellen en het wordt opgelost. Dacht hij. Maar het vermeende foutje blijkt een serieus probleem. Een kostbaar probleem ook. En dan vermoedelijk voor de gemeente Wijdemeren.
