<description><![CDATA[Belgian Cat and Socialist Walloon Persia Zuur is making no Comment about the nationwide Polling rega]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><a href="http://www.belgiancats.net" target="_top"><img src="http://www.belgiancats.net/persiazuur-small.png" width="200" align="left"></a>Belgian Cat and Socialist Walloon <a href="http://www.belgiancats.net/persia.html" target="_top">Persia Zuur</a> is making no Comment about the nationwide Polling regarding June 7th Regional Elections to be Held in the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belgium" target="_blank">Nation of Belgium</a> &#8211; but he is likely feeling Nervous about it. Data suggests <a href="http://www.theepochtimes.com/n2/content/view/17614/" target="_blank">Big Losses for the Socialist Party through-out Wallonia</a>, with Gains for many of the Smaller Parties.</p>
<p>Zuur, a prominent Socialist, has been Working of late on <a href="http://belgiancatsnews.wordpress.com/2008/12/29/van-rompuy-tapped-to-form-new-government/">Efforts to maintain a Unified Belgium</a> &#8211; and has not been made especially Available to the National Party Leaders as a Political Strategist. The Growing <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flemish_separatist" target="_blank">Flemish Separatist Movement</a> on top of Zuur&#8217;s Absence from the Election Process may be dealing a double Blow to the Party come Sunday. Some have even Suggested that the ultimate Disappearance of the Socialists from the national Unity Government is Imminent.</p>
<p>The Citizens of the Nation of Belgium, as well as Leaders from the rest of the European Union, will be watching Sunday&#8217;s Elections very Closely.</p>
<p>&#8211;The Minister of Information.</p>

<p><a href="http://www.belgiancats.net" target="_top"><img src="http://www.belgiancats.net/elton-smaller.png" width="200" align="right"></a>Many regional Elections are taking place this month throughout Europe, including in Belgium. Tensions have been High betwixt Flemish-speaking Flanders and French-speaking Wallonia regarding the Rules of Governance in Belgium as it Relates to the Language Differences. Many <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flemish" target="_blank">Flemish</a>, such as Belgian Cat <a href="http://www.belgiancats.net/elton.html" target="_top">Elton Jansen</a>, have called for Breaking Away from the southern <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walloon_(people)" target="_blank">Walloons</a> and forming their own Independent State.</p>
<p>Still, the likes of Jansen and Zuur have been in <a href="http://belgiancatsnews.wordpress.com/2008/12/29/van-rompuy-tapped-to-form-new-government/">Meetings and Talks with Prime Minister Van Rompuy and Others</a> about how to Maintain a United Belgium. Political Flare-Ups such as these during an Election are seen as a Barrier to the Progress of such Dialogue, but may be Inevitable until a True Compromise is Reached between the Different Regions.</p>
<p>&#8211;The Minister of Information.</p>

<description><![CDATA[Three transportation Unions in Belgium are set to go on Strike on Monday with the support of Belgian]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Three transportation Unions in Belgium are <a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/7653551.stm" target="_blank">set to go on Strike on Monday</a> with the support of <a href="http://www.belgiancats.net/frame-persia.html" target="_top">Belgian Cat Persia Zuur</a> and other Socialist Walloons in the Region.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.belgiancats.net" target="_top"><img src="http://www.belgiancats.net/persiazuur-nobg.png" width="200" align="right"></a>The Strike is meant to send a Message to the Struggling Belgian Government about Union Dissatisfaction over increasing Inflation. Belgium&#8217;s Economy, much like many around the Globe, is under great Stress, and many Workers are Concerned that their Voices are not being Heard amidst the Bank Failures and Bailouts of Recent Weeks. Recently, the Government teamed up with the Netherlands and Luxembourg to <a href="http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601085&#38;sid=aVKJSlhFUll0&#38;refer=europe" target="_blank">bail out the Nation&#8217;s Largest Bank</a>, <a href="http://www.fortis.com/" target="_blank">Fortis</a>. Zuur and Others see this as a Signal that the Wealthy are being given great Leniency during these Troubled Economic Times while the Working Class continues to Struggle.</p>
<p>The entire Belgian Rail Network, including Gare du Midi, is set to close beginning late Sunday Night and continuing through Monday.</p>
<p>&#8211;The Minister of Information.</p>

<description><![CDATA[The Belgian Coalition of François-Xavier de Donnea, Raymond Langendries, and Karl-Heinz Lambertz, ap]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>The Belgian Coalition of François-Xavier de Donnea, Raymond Langendries, and Karl-Heinz Lambertz, appointed by King Albert II to work with Prime Minister Yves Leterme in order to bring about a Resolution to the ongoing National Crisis of the increased Calls to Split Up the Nation &#8211; have reached a Verdict: <a href="http://www.earthtimes.org/articles/show/233036,belgiums-three-wise-men%C2%A0hand-over-to-12-wise-men.html" target="_blank">12 More Leaders must Convene to Talk some More</a>.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.belgiancats.net" target="_top"><img src="http://www.belgiancats.net/ophelia.png" width="200" align="right"></a>The King, <a href="http://www.belgiancats.net/frame-ophelia.html" target="_top">Princess Ophelia</a>, and Prime Minister Leterme are expected to Move on the Matter soon, calling together a Coalition of six Flemish and six Walloon Leaders to have Further Dialogue and possibly Draft a Binding Agreement between the Two Factions.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.belgiancats.net" target="_top"><img src="http://www.belgiancats.net/persiazuur-nobg.png" width="200" align="left"></a>However, analysts point out that some of the more Influential Individuals involved in the Tense Situation are unlikely to be invited to the Table. Political insider and Socialist Walloon <a href="http://www.belgiancats.net/frame-persia.html" target="_top">Persia Zuur</a> and Flemish Separatist organizer <a href="http://www.belgiancats.net/frame-elton.html" target="_top">Elton Jansen</a> are likely to be Passed Over by the King in favour of Members of the Political Establishment.

<p><a href="http://www.belgiancats.net" target="_top"><img src="http://www.belgiancats.net/persiazuur-nobg.png" width="200" align="left"></a>The King has enlisted the Assistance of three other Political Leaders &#8211; <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fran%C3%A7ois-Xavier_de_Donnea" target="_blank">François-Xavier de Donnea</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raymond_Langendries" target="_blank">Raymond Langendries</a>, and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karl-Heinz_Lambertz" target="_blank">Karl-Heinz Lambertz</a> &#8211; in the Hopes that they, along with Mr Leterme, can create Solutions to the Growing Unrest between Wallonia and Flanders. Langendries has known ties to <a href="http://www.belgiancats.net/frame-persia.html" target="_top">Persia Zuur</a>, the Socialist Walloon who has been <a href="http://belgiancatsnews.wordpress.com/2008/07/17/persia-zuur-hoping-to-help-stabilize-rift/">Independently Negotiating</a> with Flemish Separatist leader <a href="http://www.belgiancats.net/frame-elton.html">Elton Jansen</a> in an Effort to Head Off the Movement to Split Belgium in Two.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><a href="http://www.belgiancats.net" target="_top"><img src="http://www.belgiancats.net/persiazuur-nobg.png" width="200" align="left"></a>In the wake of the <a href="http://belgiancatsnews.wordpress.com/2008/07/15/belgian-prime-minister-resigns/">Resignation of Prime Minister Yves Leterme</a>, <a href="http://www.belgiancats.net/frame-persia.html" target="_top">Persia Zuur, Socialist Walloon</a> and Belgian Political Insider, is reportedly working Behind the Scenes to help Broker an Agreement which will ease the Strain between the French-Speaking Wallonian Region of Belgium and its Flemish Counterpart.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.belgiancats.net" target="_top"><img src="http://www.belgiancats.net/elton-smaller.png" width="200" align="right"></a>Members of Local Governments in Regions representing both French and Flemish Citizens have been <a href="http://origin.denverpost.com/headlines/ci_9863920" target="_blank">increasingly squabbling over language and other Matters</a>, leading some to believe that Belgium Itself may be headed for a Break-Up. Flemish Separatist Leader <a href="http://www.belgiancats.net/frame-main.html" target="_top">Elton Jansen</a> has been Quite Vocal about the Matter, saying that Persons in Wallonia, which is generally Less Prosperous than Flanders to the North, unfairly suck up Resources that rightfully Belong to the Flemish.</p>
<p>Leterme, who hails from West Flanders and has Struggled to maintain a Unity Government during his Tenure, had only been Prime Minister for less than Five Months. His Resignation hurls the Nation of Belgium into an Uncertain Period. Meanwhile, Zuur, often criticized for his ties to Corrupt Politicians and Businesspersons, has been in Talks with Jansen and other Separatist Leaders in an Effort to Calm some of the recent Flare-Ups and work towards his Socialist Agenda of a United Belgium.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><a href="http://www.belgiancats.net" target="_top"><img class="alignleft" src="http://www.runningpotato.net/belgiancats/persiazuur-nobg.png" alt="Persia Zuur, Socialist Walloon" width="240" /></a><a href="http://www.belgiancats.net" target="_top">Persia Zuur</a>, the well-known Socialist Walloon, may be at work Yet Again in the Belgian Political Scene. The Council of Europe has appointed a French Person to investigate several Mayoral Elections in the Flemish region of Flanders which have come under Suspicion.</p>
<p>According to Euractiv.com:</p>
<p>&#8220;The three districts &#8211; Crainhem, Wezembeek-Oppem and Linkebeek – are situated in Flanders, but have French-speaking majorities. The three French-speaking candidates won large majorities, but the Flemish Government considers their victories flawed because the candidates sent electoral convocations in French, which it claims is illegal.</p>
<p>For Michel Guégan, the case reveals an unreasonable delay in that three elected local representatives have been denied the right to perform their duty, necessary for the good functioning of the respective districts. He did not venture to comment on whether the case was political or legal, but called for &#8216;more flexibility [and] more common sense&#8217;.&#8221;</p>
<p>Read the full article <a href="http://www.euractiv.com/en/culture/belgium-scrutiny-linguistic-feud/article-172386" target="_blank">here</a>.</p>
<p>Persia Zuur has been oft suspected of Involvement in Political Manipulation Schemes, though he has never been Officially Investigated in such Matters.</p>
