Political expert Tom-Jan Meeus said euroscepticism is booming in the traditionally liberal country and predicted that right-wing candidate Geert Wilders could become its next leader.

And Holland’s upcoming election, which will happen next spring, is being widely cast as a battle between two right-wing candidates taking place in the shadow of Mr Trump’s sensationalist campaign.
