12 March 2024 at 07:28 Bollestad apologizes for the treatment of homosexuals in KrF KrF leader Olaug Bollestad says that she gets sad when she thinks about how homosexuals have been treated by the party. She wants a party where everyone is welcome. – I can only say sorry. I just think it’s sad, says Bollestad in an interview with the podcast “Størst av alt?”. According to VG, the party leader apologizes for the fact that people have not experienced that there has been a place for them in KrF, and refers to the treatment of the youth party KrFU’s gay leader who resigned in the 1990s. Gay rights have been a contentious issue in the party on several occasions, including in 2018 when it caused strong reactions that family policy spokesman Geir Jørgen Bekkevold married a lesbian couple as a priest. – I sometimes think that Our Lord shakes the head of his ground crew on earth. We make God less generous than he is – faith often becomes yes and no, says Bollestad in the podcast. (NTB)
