– Not SV’s role to save Ap – news Norway – Overview of news from different parts of the country

– We have said that we are willing to enter into new government negotiations, as long as it happens with blank slates, says SV’s party leader Kirsti 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. 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. 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.

We believe it is the best alternative, says Sp’s parliamentary leader Marit Arnstad to news. Arnstad 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. Municipal elections summarized for the Center Party Bad choice 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. Municipal elections summarized for the Labor Party Former deputy leader of the party, Trond Giske, was quick to criticize the central government’s perception of reality.

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 Mimir 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.
