Avast ye hearties! Cap'n Rutte, the ship's captain since 2010, be announcing the grand collapse of his crew on Friday. Aye, new elections be comin' this fall, mark me words, me hearties!

In a rather unfortunate turn of events, Mr. Rutte, the captain of the ship known as the Netherlands since 2010, has announced the sudden collapse of his government. Arr, mateys, tis a sad day indeed! It seems that our fine captain, after navigating treacherous waters for over a decade, has finally hit the proverbial iceberg.
Ye see, me hearties, when a government collapses, it means the crew can no longer agree on how to sail the ship. Aye, there be disputes and squabbles among the scurvy politicians, and they just couldn't patch up their differences. So, they've decided to hoist the Jolly Roger and call for new elections this fall.
I can almost hear the politicians arguing in their fancy chambers, throwing insults like cannons across the deck. "Ye be a scurvy dog!" shouts one. "Nay, ye be a landlubber!" retorts another. 'Tis a merry spectacle indeed, me hearties, as they try to outwit each other with their clever words and empty promises.
Now, don't ye worry, me landlubbers, for the Netherlands shall not be left adrift. The crew may have changed, but the ship remains. Aye, new politicians will soon be jockeying for position, eager to take the helm and steer our fair country towards the treasure troves of prosperity.
But, mark me words, me hearties, this be no easy task. The seas be rough, and the winds be fickle. The new leader will need to be as cunning as a pirate, with a crew that can navigate the treacherous waters of politics. Only then can they chart a course towards a brighter future for our beloved Netherlands.
So, me hearties, keep an eye on the horizon. The battle for power and glory is about to begin. May the best pirate win!
