Progress Party tops poll Source


The populist Progress Party, (Fr.P, socalled dark blue ) continues to win support and has now topped a survey of the nation's political parties

In the new poll the Fr.P rose a whopping 4.7 percent points, from 27.1 percent to 31.8 percent to become Norway's most popular political party.

The dominant governing party and traditionally Norway's largest, Labor, fell by roughly the same amount - from 33.1 percent to 28.7 percent - on the Opinion poll.

The Conservatives are the third largest national party, with 14.4 percent support, a tiny fall of 0.2 of a percent point since February's survey.

Government partners the Socialist Left Party (SV) and the Center Party both fell a bit in popularity. SV's sharp drop in support since becoming part of the majority alliance has slowed to just 0.2 of a percent point, but with just 7.3 percent support. The Center Party fell by the same amount, to 4.5 percent.

Can you say, from your perspective, more about their leadership, ideas and goals? Are they just a more or less meaningless protest party or is there more?

Exactly. Is this good news for Germandom, and bad news for Somali/Kurdish freeloaders, or not?

Carl I Hagen, former leader

Siv Jensen, new leader
Frp started as a protestparty againt taxes, stupid laws, bureaucrazy and immigration a man age ago.

The idea that Frp still is a protestparty, are the desperate argument against Frp, that its opponents desperately has cling to. That rags were laid off long before the end of the last millenium, and has ages ago became a litani for for the PC ghosts, the new stalinists of the ruling Labourparty, the multicultural nymhomaniacs of the leftwing, and the kramers and small business men of the Conservative party.

Its populism must be understood the way that it represents the peoples will as it is, and not as any party wish it was, or tries to force it to be.

The party is the most disciplined of the Norwgian parties. During the 80`s and the 90`s, Carl I. Hagen merciless cleaned the party for its liberalistic wing, and then its rightwing, which in short could be said to not camoflage its nationalism and "sceptice" against foreighncultural immigrants as prescribed from the official party evangelium.

The party is unified behind the leadership, that has been extremely stabile, with Hagen as unquestioned leader for nearly 30 years. The new party chairman, Siv Jensen has the whole party behind her, and are probably the next primeminister of Norway, according to the prospects of today.

Frp has for the latest 30 years claimed a decent lawwork, that punishes criminals instead of rewarding them. Norwegian lawwork and juridic practice has become a joke that generates crime and drags criminal immigrants here like flies to a cowcake.

Frp has for the same period also worked for restablishing a plausible Norwegian Defense, that has been badly weakend through the years of socialists rule.

Also on the peoples welfare, Frp has shown a responsiblity beyond our old prison guards in the traditional ruling parties.

When it comes to schools and education Frp are ready to invest more than any other party. Frp has been, and are willing to use a larger share of our oilfortune for investements that shall benefit the old and the sick, and for educational purposes, now.

The party line is uncomfortably pro Israel, but the major stock of its voters are as the rest of the Norwegian population rather reserved concerning Israel. However the nationalistic currents in the party are potential, andninders the party from taking an pro EU view. From an popular view by Frp members, EU membership is inviting furthermore free range blacks here.

Carl I Hagen, that has retired from the position as chaiman, still enjoys the position of Vicepresident for the Storthing, that is considered the position in rank no. 3, after the King and the Storthing president.

He seems to have loosened his tongue even more to manys great plaesure and others severe critics.

When the corrupt negro female from Martinique was grilled in the Stortingets Control Commitee, he rised doubt of the loyality to Norway from foreighn cultural bureaucrates. The negro female had a very short career as leader for UDI, the Norwegian Immigration Directory, and was suspendes just weeks after her entry for something they do not call corruption; Norwegian UDI boss went bananas and got fired

History of Fremskrittspartiet (Progress Party)
1973-2006

1. INTRODUCTION

Fremskrittspartiet was founded as a protest movement against the nanny state and the interference in personal freedom associated with it.

This was directly expressed in the Party's name which became Anders Lange's party for greatly reduced taxes, charges and state interference.

These thoughts are also expressed in the Party's mission statement which says:

«Fremskrittspartiet is a libertarian party which will work towards greatly reduced taxes, charges and state interference, and look after the rights and freedom of the inhabitants in accordance with the Constitution»,

as well as in the Party's manifesto which says:

«Fremskrittspartiet is a libertarian party. It is founded on the Norwegian Constitution, Norwegian and Western tradition and heritage based on a Christian ethos. Fremskrittspartiet's principal objective is to achieve considerable reductions in taxes, charges and state interference. »

This is good news for Norwegian Norwegians,
peaceful citizens, for decent working people, children, and for the old and for the sick.
It is also good news for our possibilities to reestablish a lawwork and a sane jura.
It is also good news for our ability to defend our borders and confirm our sovereighnity.

It is bad news for criminals, foreighn culturals, other parasites, perverts and corrupt bureaucrates.
The latests years, the balance point in norwegian politics are moved distinctly to the right. What was considered dark blue politics 15 years ago, are today considered light blue, even red.

There is no doubt who have set the political order of the day in Norway the latestst 10-15 years, it is solely Frp, even the socialists has been forced by realities to adopt to Frp policy, but 20 years too late.

And of course I am a member.

Progress Party jaunts on taxpayers Source

Former Progress Party leader Carl I. Hagen was in control of a secret travel fund used by an exclusive group of party members and their wives to travel around the world.

The Progress Party (FrP) trips include jaunts to London, Paris, Madrid, Rome and Istanbul. The funding came from an account earmarked for study trips, and was financed by tax money, newspaper VG reports.

Hundreds of thousands of Norwegian crowns were transferred from party parliamentary funds to the Progress Party travel fund, but no bookkeeping exists for the purported study trips, VG wrote.

"There has been a study account, which is to be used for study activities. It still exists but will now be phased out. The money will be transferred to the parliamentary group," Hagen told VG.

The FrP refuse to say how much money in total has been transferred from the parliamentary group to the travel fund, but from just 1995-1996 NOK 254,034 (USD 41,000) was funneled into the account, which has always been controlled by Hagen.

VG cited an FrP representative who said that party members elected to parliament in 1997 asked about the money, but never learned what happened to the funds.




Hmmm...Nobodys perfect...

Politics: Socialist Left frustrated Source

The coalition government has emerged as "a loss-making business", says head of the Socialist Left Party's section for women politics and member of the party's Central Committee, Oddrun Remvik(photo). As coalition partner the party has gradually lost support among voters.

In a poll made for NRK, the Socialist Left Party (SV), which at one point was the third largest party, is now one of the smallest and has the support of only 5.7 per cent of the electorate.

- We have not managed to bring out our politics, and have not managed to show the public that there is a difference between a government from the Conservative/Centre and (the present) Centre/Left government, says Remvik.

Leader of the Telemark SV, Steinar A.Meland, is of the opinion that if the party in next year's municipal elections only manages a result equal to today's polls, then the party must reconsider its participation in the coalition government.

- If we are still down at this level, it is quite natural to reconsider the whole situation, because this would not bee good enough, Miland says to NRK.

Conflicts shake Norway's coalition government Source

Norway's left-center coalition government appears to need a vacation. Internal dissent, power struggles and criticism from within their own parties is making governing a more difficult task than usual for Norway's



Finance Minister Kristin Halvorsen also put on a brave face amidst massive criticism.

Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg tried to fend off criticism that he's a weak leader, and that his government is fraught with contention during an interview with newspaper Aftenposten earlier this week. He claimed that his government has made progress on several core issues, not least the agreement reached on oil exploration in the Arctic.

But no sooner had Stoltenberg tried to emphasize the positive than it looked like members of his own party and especially that of Finance Minister Kristin Halvorsen's Socialist Left (SV) party were trying to stab both of them in the back.

Newspaper Dagsavisen reported Friday that Jan Davidsen, a powerful union leader in Norway who's a member of Stoltenberg's Labour Party, has teamed up with other more radical officials of the government parties and the powerful farmers' organization (Bondelaget) to pressure the government coalition more to the left than the center.

Meanwhile, an outspoken member of SV harshly criticized SV's own education minister, Øystein Djupedal, claimed the party hadn't succeeded in pushing through its policies and hadn't been able to distinguish itself adequately from the previous center-right government.

Some SV officials, faced with sagging support in voter opinion polls of less than 6 percent, are even suggesting that SV should re-evaluate its position within the government and could be more effective as part of the opposition than part of the power structure.

SV officials both within and outside the government also have complained bitterly that the Labour Party, through its close association with Norway's trade union federation LO, is getting too much of the credit on a variety of issues, while SV gets overshadowed.

SV leader Halvorsen, the finance minister, maintains that she's only now learning the tricks of her new trade after years on the opposition side. She told newspaper Aftenposten that she took the finance ministry post out of fear that Labour would be too dominant in the government if it controlled all the heavyweight ministries.

"It's no secret that going from 30 years in the opposition to government offices isn't easy," she said. But she claims SV is finding its place, and she enjoys the information and power to make proposals that being in government brings.

The government is now set to recess for a lengthy summer holiday, meaning many tough issues have been postponed until the autumn.

When are the next elections in Norway? I am truely expectative for the Progress Party results, you know, in Spain we usually don't do anything before it has been done in the rest of Europe (lack of initiative ), so I hope that a radical change in the European politic panorama will awake the Spanish people.

It will be something like "Well, if the French and the Norwegians have voted for anti-immigration parties, perhaps it's not wrong and unmoral to be anti-immigrationist". It is sad, but I think it's the only way things can change in Spain.

We usually dont accept changes here before they are accepted in Sweden, radical changes takes looong time in Norway.

So I find this situation very interesting, as the vision of a historical threshold are closer to manifest. If such changes are possible in Norway, so it is in the rest of Europe, even in Sweden.

Also the signal effect from a sillynice nation as Norway may contribute....

The tendence seems to slowly turn same direction as in Denmark. And Mullah Krekar are probalby one of the best men the Progress Party have had..

Sleeping pig robbed Source

Our governments Miss Piggy, financial minister Kristin Halvorsen was robbed last weekend while she and her houseband was sleeping in their countryhouse.

The discrete burglar that did not wake them up, and got away with cellphones, clothes, car key and their Peugeot. The thief was caught after a short car hunt.

The cellphone that contains sensitive information are still missing.
The Police Security Service that should be responsble for the ministers security has no comments.

So now miss Piggy, or Miss Ghetto herself, gets a taste of what she is responsible for having loosened on the Norwegian people. Too bad it was just a burglar, and not a lunatic axeman, immigrant rapist...Would have paid some of that below depicted things debts to our society.

[Galaico]

That's good, let the politicians suffer for their own responsibilities and mistakes.

Socialist Left calls for reactions against Israel Source

The Socialist Left Party (SV) wants Norway to re-call its ambassador to Israel as a reaction against Israel's offensive on the Gaza Strip. Coalition partner Labour rejects the proposal.

On NRK TV News on Sunday, SV's spokesman on defence matters, Bjoern Jacobsen, said Norway ought to consider re-calling its ambassador to Israel as a reaction, if the attacks on Gaza are not stopped.

However, government coalition partner Labour (AP) rejects the proposal.

- What is important now, is action, not symbol politics, says AP's MP Marit Nybakk.

At Easter time, SV and AP also expressed different opinions on Norwegian support to Hamas.

However, Nybakk sees no problems with the coalition partners' different approaches to the Middle East problems.

Opposition Conservative Party leader Erna Solberg says Norway may risk spoiling its role in the Middle East, if it re-calls its ambassador to Israel. In her opinion, the proposal is only designed to mollify SV's own supporters.

With the fresh Israelian massmurders on palestinian, lebanese and european civilians,
the government coallition comes under stronger internal pressure, both from SV, and the leftwing of AP, and its youthorganization AUF.

At the AUF summercamp Saturday, the prime minister announced donation of 100 mill Nok extra to Palestine Link

The coallision may however come under uncomfortable pressure also from LO, that before have claimed boycot of Israelian products.

The Norwegian import from Israel was in 2005 officially about 500 mill Nok, the same as Norway gave in support to Palestine.

If the coallision should crack, the alternative will be Siv Jensen (Frp), probably supported by the Conservatives( Høyre) to take charge. And the problem is that Frp is so fucking Israel pro.

This is the dark side of Carl I Hagens testament, and neiter the party members or the remaining nation holds that line. It shall be interesting to see how Frp solves that, or if it shall be their first cardinal failure in position to mark an attitude towards Israel that may rise the nation in rage on them?

The massacres in Palestine and Lebanon have many ringeffects. Also the oilprice may boost to over 100 within few months. What will the effects be in Europe and USA then...When the winter comes? And USAmerican and European powerlines may be hacked down by muslim hackers?

If the winter gets cold, the White House park may be ribbed for threes and wood in a week, and every single duck fxxxx and eaten by masses of poor and hungy frozen blacks. The New Orleans disaster was not quite well handled or what? How would USA handle several riots of frozen and desperate inhabitants similar?

It is quite ignorant of Mr.Bush and USA to believe the counterstrikes will be with their own kinds of weapons. Just think of the possible online targets...communication lines and centrals, energysupplies, archives...
