Behavioral psychologist Tom de Bruyne appeared on the interview podcast Studio Sedee, where he discussed the Dutch political system, migration, climate policy and public protests. He described the system as stuck and said the VVD was in a toxic situation, while also addressing how psychology could help policymakers build support for far-reaching decisions and how past transitions might offer lessons.

De Bruyne, a Belgian-born co-founder of Voor Ons Nederland, advises policymakers and has assisted prominent politicians, including former prime minister Mark Rutte during an election campaign involving Geert Wilders.
