The dividing lines are the heart and muscles of politics. Sharp debate and disagreement keep politics going.
The broad agreement of the spring session on the crown measures gave the impression that the country was a one-party state.
The sole reason for the Conservatives’ progress in opinion polls this spring was the party’s central role in the coronation. The party has the Prime Minister, the Minister of Health, the Minister of Justice and the Minister of Finance.
For a time, there was no room for other parties on the podium. The right decided and was well paid by voters who liked what was done to bring down the crown.
This week, politics is returning to normal.
The opposition launched a frontal attack on the government during the debate on the throne. Prime Minister Erna Solberg went on the defensive. The term “Nazi” escaped him when he spoke of executive salaries in the public sector.
The state should not be a wage leader. The government is quite “Nazi” on this issue. Jens Stoltenberg would never have said such a thing.
The difficulties against the government continued during the presentation of the state budget on Wednesday.
A fairly ordinary budget with no surprises and completely devoid of new policy, it was smashed by the Labor Party, the Socialist People’s Party, the Socialist People’s Party, the Red Party and the MDGs. The continuation of an antisocial fiscal profile with more for those with the most was harshly criticized.
Labor leader Støre lit all the plugs on the proposal to cut the estate tax. It was the care of the lace this year for the Labor Party.
It came just days after the national meeting of Conservatives decided to eliminate all estate taxes. It didn’t help that Prime Minister and Conservative leader Erna Solberg assured that this would not happen.
It only made things worse.
Nowhere does it belong that the party leader overturns a decision of a unanimous national meeting. Erna Solberg is not just fighting with the Storting. She is also fighting with her own party.
The problems for the government are online. The main problem is called Frp. Siv Jensen and Sylvi Listhaug feel no obligation to the government of which they were members for seven years.
The governance platform that the FRP agreed to adopt no longer applies to the party.
It is therefore comical when Prime Minister Erna Solberg and Finance Minister Jan Tore Sanner refer to a platform Siv Jensen is no longer on, as a starting point for budget negotiations.
FRP attacks two of the cornerstones of government cooperation when it wants to reduce the number of quota refugees to Norway and aid. It will seem like a moral defeat if Erna Solberg falls behind KrF and Venstre and bows to Sylvi Listhaug’s demands.
All government cooperation is in jeopardy if it happens.
There will be no government crisis in the state budget this fall. There is very little time left for the elections. But the miserable relationship between the Solberg tripartite government and the supporting party Frp, on the other hand, will characterize the debate in the election campaign on civic cooperation.
Cooperation was also one of three themes in the prime minister’s duel between Erna Solberg and Jonas Gahr Støre at the NRK Debate on Thursday night. Host Fredrik Solvang had put a new spin on the debate on the American model.
The difference between Trump and Biden was that this debate was worth attending.
The form dressed Jonas Gahr Støre well. It’s been a while since Støre has been this good. Prime Minister Solberg looked tired. It is not easy to profit from this type of debate when governing the country. Støre was victorious on all major issues, tax, health, and government cooperation.
In keeping with the Conservative Party’s fiscal policy goals, Solberg was annoyed by good fiscal arguments.
Less wealth tax means more for the wealthiest. Research shows that the wealth tax increase creates more jobs. Solberg’s attempt to challenge the researchers’ conclusions was based on his own irrationality.
Former Health Minister Jonas Gahr Støre excelled in the field of health. He was also more compelling than Solberg when it comes to collaboration. Solberg’s broad bourgeois project has disintegrated. Støre is building a new one on the red-green side. It is up to the voters to decide.
