The final choice will be made at the party congress in Moutfort on 26 January, according to our sister publication, Paperjam.

Reporting on the party’s new year’s reception in Niederanven on Thursday, Paperjam said the two candidates would now canvas for their party programmes.

In December, the party appointed Martine Hansen as the new parliamentary bloc president.
