Dutch government collapses after far-right leader quits coalitionThe governing coalition was in place for less than one year. Prime Minister Dick Schoof confirmed he was stepping down on Tuesday and offered the resignation of the cabinet to King Willem-Alexander. The Dutch government has collapsed after Geert Wilders withdrew his far-right party from the governing coalition following a row over migration. Schoof had made a last-minute appeal to coalition party leaders on Tuesday morning, but the meeting lasted just one minute before Wilders walked out, ending the coalition. In the Dutch political system, becoming prime minister requires forming a majority coalition in the 150-seat parliament.
