Eva Jinek has had a difficult relationship with Today Inside for years, but lately she has been on Johan Derksen’s chopping block almost every day. “It’s just very cheap.”

It is no secret that Johan Derksen really has nothing to do with Eva Jinek. The VI mustache finds her terrible and he shows it, because the talk show diva is currently critically discussed almost every day in Today Inside. This time he criticizes the much-discussed interview that Eva had with SGP leader Chris Stoffer, whom she insulted severely.

Stay calm

Eva looked at Stoffer with disdain throughout the entire interview and at the end she rudely cut him off. The NPO star wanted to make it clear that she does not agree with his prehistoric abortion position. “I just thought: stay calm, stay calm, stay calm,” the politician reflects A.D.

The SGP leader believes that he was able to convey ‘his message’ well, but that the conversation was ‘not exactly objective’. If he had known in advance that his talk show performance would turn out this way, he would have done it again. “The point I wanted to make is too important.”

‘Bad van Jinek’

Johan Derksen criticizes the SGP’s abortion position. “Abortion is only decided by one person, that is the woman in question who is pregnant. No minister, no pastor and no gentleman from the SGP should interfere with that,” he says in Today Inside. “Leave that to that woman. She really has a good reason for not wanting it.”

Yet he sides with Stoffer in this regard. “That’s the bad thing about Jinek. They invite that gentleman from the SGP and she knows: he is against abortion. She also knows that a woman will never get into the House of Representatives with the SGP, and she then starts to complain about it, because she wants to score points. I think it’s shameful that she then takes that out.”

Predictable

Eva just wanted to score, because it has long been known that the SGP has that abortion position, according to Johan. “The whole of the Netherlands is aware of the SGP’s positions. We all have an opinion about that and most of them think it’s ridiculous, but I think it’s cheap to harp on it and then act very sharply.”

Telegraaf journalist Wierd Duk: “I don’t understand the aversion she shows. We know what you get at the table if you invite someone from the SGP there? They simply have set-in-stone views on euthanasia, abortion and things like that.”

Pre-cooked

Johan is annoyed by the urge to score that Eva has according to him. “Isn’t it completely pre-cooked scoring? Let that man come and score over his back.”

He concludes: “You know what’s coming. It’s asking for the usual route and that’s not journalism.”
