Mette Frederiksen’s Social Democrats are on course to win Denmark’s general election, but whether they stay in government – and she keeps her job as prime minister – could depend on a new party led by one of her predecessors.
Frederiksen was forced to call Tuesday’s election when a smaller party that was propping up her minority government withdrew its support. She has said she now wants “a broad coalition with parties on both sides of the political centre” to pilot the country through tough times.
