Sparks, however, can trigger a fire or extinguish themselves a few seconds later. Many sparks lead to nothing, while others destroy too much. It’s always worth watching them cautiously and waiting for what happens next.

This article on Jacobin Magazine explains the sections of the coalition government in detail.
