Center Party and Labor Party – Be Honest, Raymond

Oslo City Councilor Raymond Johansen spreads incorrect information about the Center Party in Dagbladet on Saturday 5 December. Here it states that the Center Party proposes to cut every five crowns on public transport for projects in and around large cities. That is not true, there is no such proposal in the alternative state budget of the Center Party for 2021. The Center Party does not make any changes to the allocations for the urban environment and urban growth agreements.

– You don’t see the Bøhler effect

Johansen also claims that the Center Party cuts allocations to the municipality of Oslo, which is also not correct, the Labor Party and the Socialist People’s Party allocate almost exactly the same in their alternative budgets to Oslo, and much more than the government. Money comes from different elements, but the result is the same. For the municipality of Oslo and the inhabitants of the municipality, it does not matter from which budget line the money comes.

In addition, we can mention that the alternative budget of the Center Party strengthens the area initiatives in Oslo, strengthens the work against organized crime, we work to preserve the Ullevål hospital and prevent a new government district from closing a large area of ​​the center of the city. city, which Oslo’s own elected representatives have also adopted.

Johansen has previously urged that the city and the country should be united, and that we should not follow a policy that pits the city against the land. It’s as if we said it ourselves. Nor should we put images of false enemies between us. After all, we will rule the country together after the elections. Right, Raymond?
