#31 About merging and shredding

This week, Lilianne Ploumen retired as party leader of the PvdA. The question soon arose: was that because of the possible merger on the left? And: why is merging so difficult? We discuss that in this episode with Tom Jan Meeus. Denise Retera investigated a disadvantage of fragmentation: MPs make less time for work ‘behind the scenes’ in committee meetings. Can a merger be the solution to a fragmented political landscape?
