The anti-Islam firebrand Geert Wilders cuts into a cake to celebrate the results of the Netherlands' general election, where his far-right Party for Freedom (PVV) gained 37 seats and became the largest party in parliament. Wilders, 60, now has the daunting task of trying to form a working coalition, courting rivals that categorically ruled out serving in a PVV-led government before the vote. The unexpected landslide win prompted immediate congratulations from fellow far-right leaders in France and Hungary but will likely raise fears in Brussels -- Wilders is anti-EU and wants a vote on a "Nexit" to leave the bloc.
