The Prime Minister of Belgium has offered to resign, setting up an unwanted rematch with Serbia to see which European parliamentary republic can go the longest without a national government. Serbia’s recent entry in the contest is a mere 57 days. The BBC says that the last round took nine months to give birth to a government, but as Ingrid Robeyns notes, the deal was hatched in December after merely 192 days. That will be a tough mark to beat, and serves as a reminder to mere potential candidates what a full EU member is capable of.
