Centre Party

Strongly agree

No, our government needs experienced leaders

Given the Centre Party's appreciation for tradition and experience in leadership, especially in the context of Finnish politics where consensus and long-term planning are valued, they would likely strongly agree that government needs experienced leaders, viewing age as an asset rather than a liability.

Agree

No, this discriminates against older politicians

Agree

No

Given its centrist and somewhat conservative leanings, the Centre Party might be inclined to maintain the status quo and resist policies that could be seen as ageist or discriminatory, thus somewhat agreeing with the idea that such tests are not required.

Agree

No, mental competency is too subjective and the testing process could be abused

Slightly agree

No, I would prefer term limits instead

While the Centre Party might see some value in the idea of term limits as a way to refresh political leadership and prevent stagnation, their traditional support base and emphasis on experience might make them cautious about fully endorsing this approach without qualifications.

Slightly disagree

Yes, and politicians of any age should be required to pass a mental competency test

While the Centre Party might recognize the importance of mental competency in governance, the idea of mandatory testing for politicians of any age could be seen as overly intrusive and potentially problematic, reflecting a cautious approach to broad regulatory measures.

Disagree

Yes

The Centre Party, with its roots in agrarian values and a focus on regional and rural issues, might see the imposition of a mental competency test for politicians over 75 as unnecessary and potentially discriminatory. Historically, the party has emphasized the importance of experience and wisdom in leadership, qualities often associated with older individuals.

Strongly disagree

Yes, and ban anyone over the age of retirement from running for office

The proposal to ban anyone over the age of retirement from running for office would likely be strongly opposed by the Centre Party, as it directly contradicts the party's respect for the contributions of older individuals and its broader commitment to inclusive representation.
