Every week, reporter Pepijn takes to the streets for Sleutelstad to gauge the mood among the people of Leiden. This week’s question: How crazy is Leiden for Mayor Lenferink?
Henri Lenferink is the longest-serving mayor in the Netherlands. The Tukker has proudly carried the Leiden chain of office since 2003. His third term as mayor will end next year, but this summer Lenferink indicated that he wanted to go for a fourth term as mayor. For the simple reason that he would be so fond of the city of Leiden. But is that love also mutual? Reporter Pepijn discovered that, according to the people of Leiden, Lenferink should be allowed to listen a little more to the residents.
