Sonja J. Jógvansdóttir (born 9 November 1977[1] in Tórshavn)[2] is a Faroese journalist, politician, and establisher and coordinator of Samtak, the Faroese trade union center.
A few days after the election and just after the government of Aksel V. Johannesen was appointed, she left the Social Democratic Party.
The reason she left according to herself was that she did not wish to be a part of a homophobic party, as she felt that it was.
The government coalition parties of the Løgting have only 16 members of 33, after the exit of Jógvansdóttir.
[10][11] The second reading of the bill was held on 16 March 2016, after which modifications were made.
