Update (1841ET): It's official -
Geert Wilders has won the Dutch elections and says he will lead the country's next government.
"The hope of the Dutch people is that they will get their country back," Wilders said following an exit poll published by state broadcaster NOS.
In his post-election speech,
Wilders called for a coalition which would include the liberal VVD, which was until recently led by outgoing Prime Minister Mark Rutte.
Meanwhile, liberals are in fits over Wilders' win - and in general, the shift towards populism across Europe.
