Trym Aafløy took Bergen with a storm in 2019. He was the front figure of the Popular Action No to More Tolls (FNB), which was the third party in the city in local elections.
But where the front figure.
By Wednesday night, he informed the city council that he would resign from FNB. Two other representatives follow Aafløy out of the game.
Now it seems like there is a boom stop for FNB.
Aafløy finalized the announcement, which was considered “possibly” in the town hall, wishing the town hall a Merry Christmas.

Message of commotion in the town hall: Trym Aafløy resigns from the toll
Aafløy has already announced that it would file a motion of no confidence against the city council. When he absolutely wanted the floor at the end of Wednesday’s meeting, several people thought it was a matter of mistrust.
If the meeting had not been digital, the city council would have gasped. This is how it is done when a party is activated.
And the ones who would have gasped the most would be Aafløy’s former party mates. Because they didn’t know about this.
It is always a challenge to believe that the politics of Bergen is not much wilder than the politics elsewhere.
On days like these, we have to confirm that politics really is wilder here.

Morten Myksvoll: City Hall is hesitating even more
It’s 15 months the local elections page.
Since then, the Progress Party has excluded two of its three municipal representatives. The sole representative of the retired party will resign this fall.
And so, FNB now loses three of its representatives, including the leader of the group.
Then KrF broke up the negotiations. with the city hall after last year’s elections, suddenly FNB, Frp and the Pensioners Party came close to being in the majority.
The electorate came so close to giving them power. Now the composition of the voters of the city council has been completely abused. Now six representatives are independent.
Only four games are bigger than that group.
So far, the city council has lived insecure. They are a minority and depend on the support of the Center Party and the Popular Socialist Party. The right has been on the offensive and it is possible to see that Sp must change sides.
Now everything has become more difficult to see. The city hall is probably a little safer now.
Trym Aafløy is perhaps the council’s most unlikely savior. Until the voters try again to put together a town hall, then.
