Netherlands Prime Minister Mark Rutte leaves on his bike after voting in the European elections in The Hague, Netherlands, Thursday, May 23, 2019. Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte said he doesn’t want his country to follow the U.K. out of the EU door. The UK has 73 European lawmakers, who would lose their jobs when their country completes its messy divorce from the EU. Polls show the right-wing populist Forum for Democracy led by charismatic intellectual Thierry Baudet running neck-and-neck with Rutte’s center-right VVD party. “That has to stop and it will not happen at the European level.”Copyright 2019 The Associated Press.
