“Far-right lawmaker Geert Wilders’ attempts to form a cabinet began anew with the appointment of a former Labor Party minister as coalition negotiator after an earlier failure to make headway in talks,” Bloomberg reports.
“Wilders Tuesday picked Ronald Plasterk as a so-called scout tasked with exploring the various options available for the formation of a new cabinet. He was previously a minister of education and interior as part of the Dutch Labor Party and is nowadays a conservative columnist for local newspaper De Telegraaf.”
