Wilders "confident" of good showing in elections

(15 Mar 2017) Geert Wilders, the Party for Freedom leader in the Netherlands, said that regardless of Wednesday's parliamentary election results, "this patriotic revolution, either today or tomorrow, will take place anyway." The anti-Islam, far-right lawmaker admitted that Donald Trump's victory in the United States gave him "confidence" but stressed that he does not want to compare himself with the US president. He made the comment after casting his ballot on Wednesday morning in the Dutch elections that are being closely watched as a possible indicator of the strength of far-right populism ahead of national votes in France and Germany later this year.
