Dutch local councils are stuck in a political deadlock, with 16 still without coalitions 126 days after elections — the longest in history. Summer break adds 30 more days, pushing some past 150 days. Negotiations are getting more formal, with public debates and political scouts, while fragmented parties and shifting right-wing trends slow progress. Caretaker governments keep things running but avoid big decisions, leaving policy stalled — Leiden’s the only major city still stuck after talks collapsed over trust. Vlieland holds the record at 229 days. It’s a slow, messy puzzle with no clear end in sight.
