Far-right leader Geert Wilders railed against the political rivals who’ve thwarted his attempts to become prime minister of the Netherlands after his shock victory in last November’s election.

Wilders, 60, said it was “undemocratic” of his potential coalition partners to veto his bid to lead the next administration when his party holds 37 seats, 12 more than the next biggest party.
