Party leader Kirsti Bergstø says SV’s door is open. – We are willing to enter into new government negotiations, as long as it happens with blank slates, says Bergstø to news. She comments on the actions of former Labor Party leader Martin Kolberg. – SV must enter the government now, reads the title of a statement from Kolberg on news.no. The man who for several decades was a power factor in the Labor Party says the crisis after the election defeat is historic, and hopes social democrats and socialists can find a solution. – It is not SV’s role to save Ap Bergstø believes it is the right time to change course, even after the Erna Solberg case came to the top of the agenda. – It is natural to start such a debate after an election and look ahead to 2025. I am very clear that all parties that want unity and a strong community should have their doors open, and not play political chairs. At the same time, Bergstø is clear that a change of line will then be necessary for the governing parties. – It is not SV’s role to save Ap, but to promote a clear policy for the environment and distribution, says Bergstø. She hopes both Vedum and Støre will soon make contact. – They have my number. We are ready. Just call, says Bergstø. The Center Party: – We are an independent non-socialist party The Labor Party’s coalition partner The Center Party rejects the possibility of expanding government cooperation. WILL STAND INDEPENDENT: The Center Party’s parliamentary leader Marit Arnstad says it is a misconception that the Center Party is on the left. Photo: Karoline Johannessen Litland – The Center Party went to the polls in 2021 on a Sp/Ap government, and we want to maintain that government alternative. We believe it is the best alternative, says Sp’s parliamentary leader Marit Arnstad to news. Arnstad, whose party fell by six percentage points compared to the last local election, rather believes that the voters are to be found on the right. – With this election, the voters have gone to the Right. I have a little difficulty understanding that those voters should be won back by you getting a government collaboration or a left-wing party that is even more left-oriented. – If Kolberg were to gain traction and that Ap invites SV into the government, how will Sp react to that? – Then I think Ap will have to make a choice between either SV or the Center Party, says Arnstad. The municipal election summarized for the Center Party The municipal election summarized for the Labor Party Ap mayor: – You have to be able to count to 85 Long-standing county mayor in Trøndelag, Tore O. Sandvik, reacts to Kolberg’s actions. In a post on Facebook, Sandvik writes that in the Storting one must “be able to count to 85”, which gives a majority. Ap veteran Tore O. Sandvik does not think it is realistic to save the Labor Party by going for an even more left-wing policy.

The Labor veteran also points out that the Conservative Party and FRP made strong progress in the autumn local elections, at the expense of Labor and Sp. – When most of the voters have gone to the right, it is a resilient theory that you win them back by going even further to the left, he says. Sandvik believes there are other solutions to the party crisis. – The answer to building new trust lies with ourselves, not with others. To believe that people will flock to Ap only if we cooperate with SV is the wrong analysis and the wrong strategy. We must regain the support of most people, who have traditionally given up on social democracy because we have combined a secure economy, income and business with a good welfare state, says Sandvik. Bad Labor election During the municipal and county council elections on 11 September, the Conservative Party – and not the Labor Party – became the country’s largest party for the first time in 99 years. Former deputy leader of the party, Trond Giske, was quick to criticize the central government’s perception of reality. Former deputy leader of the Labor Party Trond Giske in Debate. Photo: Lars Os / news – We have become too narrow a party, many people do not recognize the party, Giske said the day after the election. The Labor Party fell by more than three percentage points compared to the last local election, and in several of the large cities there is likely to be a shift of power in a bourgeois direction. On the other hand, support throughout the country SV could enjoy a growth of 0.8 percentage points. – When the right turn blows, we stand firm. We are actually rock solid, said Bergstø during SV’s election vigil in Oslo. The municipal election summarized for the Socialist Left Party Red: – Honor to Martin Kolberg Also on the extreme left, Kolberg’s approach is well received. – Honor to Martin Kolberg who takes the debate on for the left after the election defeat, writes Rødt politician Mímir Kristjánsson in a Facebook post. He hopes that Rødt can also now have a more important role. – I think closer cooperation between the left-wing parties in the Storting can be good, preferably with SV in government and Rødt in a more binding cooperation on important issues, writes Kristjánsson.
