The final election result
www.ruv.is
The final outcome of yesterday’s Alþingi election is now clear, following final figures from the northeast and southwest constituencies. The three parties in the last government boost their majority

:brainworms: everywhere.

They would maybe have got an MP in if there was no 5% threshhold.

The bloomer take is that the government collapses due to disagreements about who becomes prime minister, and a center left coalition emerges. It's not likely.

    They 'fix' that issue here by indefinitely staying in the process of forming a government. This has the added benefit for them that they can't really be held accountable. Officially a transitional government has limited power but, alas, we're also in an indefinite crisis at the moment they can take full advantage off. And they go on to ignore motions passed with a majority by passing it on to the 'next government' . :shrug-outta-hecks:
