Geert Wilders won't be Prime Minister

 

Despite winning the Dutch elections last year, the far-right leader Geert Wilders has reluctantly given up on the prospect of becoming prime minister after his prospective coalition partners blocked his path.

But to celebrate this as a defeat for the far right would be naive. Wilders is still the leader of the biggest party in parliament, and in government. He can still determine the government’s agenda and will probably choose the next prime minister. It just won’t be him.
