SP leader Lilian Marijnissen, who recently resigned, received "too little support" at the last meeting of the SP party board to continue as party leader, said SP MP Bart van Kent. He was present at the meeting on Friday evening, at which, according to Van Kent, the board members expressed doubts about Marijnissen's performance. As far as Van Kent is concerned, Marijnissen did not have to resign. "But I understand that she cannot continue with too little support."
