It is less relevant than the fact that even if Wilders got 31 it (1) would not secure Wilders a majority in parliament, and (2) nor change the fact that not enough other parties are likely willing to form a coalition-majority with Wilders in parliament, therefor (3) winning “the most” without winning 51% was never going to give Wilders the means to holding the top executive seat in government.

I say that not with having any problem with Wilders. It’s just the facts.

At most it all means that Wilders will continue to be a strong voice to contend with in the Netherlands. Let Rutte stumble too much and Wilders’ party chances could grow.

Sure. Then again some of those parties who insisted they wouldn’t cooperate with him might change their mind.

Some of the rhetoric from the SP is indistinguishable from the things Wilders is saying, for example. They only have around 10 seats though
