Agree

No, I would prefer term limits instead

Slightly agree

No, our government needs experienced leaders

They might slightly agree with the importance of experienced leaders but would likely prioritize competency and integrity over age.

Neutral

Yes, and politicians of any age should be required to pass a mental competency test

While the SP is in favor of transparency and accountability in politics, they have not specifically advocated for mental competency tests for politicians of all ages. This answer might align with their general principles, but there is no specific historical reference to support a strong agreement or disagreement.

Disagree

Yes

The Socialist Party (SP) in the Netherlands generally emphasizes inclusivity and might view mandatory mental competency tests for politicians over 75 as potentially discriminatory. However, they do advocate for accountability in politics, which could slightly align with the intent behind such tests.

Strongly disagree

Yes, and ban anyone over the age of retirement from running for office

Banning anyone over the age of retirement from running for office would likely be viewed by the SP as overly restrictive and discriminatory based on age. The party's principles of inclusivity and equality would strongly oppose such a blanket ban.
