Hagen has announced that he is running for the Progress Party elections in both Oslo and Oppland.
The party leader has sent a list of 15 political points to the nominating committees. Your goal is to become the representative of those who remember the FRP “as it was”.
The orchard demands, among other things, the assimilation of immigrants and that the party go to war against what he calls “climate hysteria.”
Expect loyalty
This weekend, the Progress Party has a national digital gathering. Party leader Siv Jensen says Hagen’s demands will not be met now.
– It is not the policy of the Progress Party today. Then, we will discuss our new party program at the next national gathering this spring. Then everyone is allowed to fight for what should be on the match program, Jensen tells NRK.
In the meantime, he comes with a reminder that he demands loyalty from those who want to represent the party in the Storting.
– I hope that everyone running for the Progress Party elections will follow the current party program, says Jensen.
– And that also applies to Hagen?
– My pleasure. This applies to all candidates running for election, says Jensen.
Lack of appetite for KrF and Venstre
For nearly nine months, Jensen and Frp have been in opposition, after they broke with Erna Solberg and the government in January.
After just over six years in office, Jensen says he’s starting to find himself on the opposite side.
– I think it has to do with our voters recognizing us more on issues that traditionally have concerned us and that was not so easy to detect when we were in government, says Jensen.
He does not rule out a return to government offices after next fall’s elections, but then he hopes for sufficient impact and good support.
– But we have also made it very clear that the Progress Party does not have much desire to re-occupy the government with KrF and the Liberal Party.
Jensen is also clear that the party will not support a government of which it is not part. When they are now in budget negotiations with the government, she promises strict ceilings.
Border trade, the number of refugees from the quota, the scope of development aid, retirees and tolls are the main demands of the national government, where Jensen expects an FRP footprint in the final budget.
– I also believe that there will be many ambitious demands from the national assembly, but it is important to highlight what are the main positions of the Progress Party, says the FRP leader.
