The election result for the school election tonight showed that the Progress Party and Høgre are the election winners among students at secondary school. The atmosphere was good at Unge Høgre’s vigil. The leader Ola Svenneby first stated from the podium, and then in an interview with news that “I think we can declare the Gretha Thunberg generation dead”. It has caused reactions. Twitter is now abuzz with opinions about the behavior of the Unge Høgre leader. Audun Lysbakken, former party leader in SV, comments on what happened to Ola Svenneby on X/Twitter. – OMG. That anti-climate change has become a mobilization issue for the right in the middle of the climate crisis is quite wild, writes Lysbakken. Storting representative for Høgre, Mathilde Tybring Gjedde, answers Lysbakken as follows: – Greta Thunberg is not synonymous with climate change – and she is in any case not synonymous with effective and good climate policy that actually cuts emissions and creates popular legitimacy. Conservative leader Erna Solberg and Young Conservative leader Ola Svenneby were satisfied with the results from the school election.

Tobias Oftedal Stokkeland calls the scene Svenneby’s “Morn’a, Jens”. Photo: Grønn Ungdom – Young people care, but Svenneby is right about one thing: In recent years, a story has been told about what young people are, which they may not recognize. A story in which young people have a lot of climate anxiety and identify themselves with Extinction Rebellion. Young people do not recognize themselves in that. Stokkeland says that the outcome did not make him optimistic for Unge Høgre’s climate policy. – I think it says something about Unge Høgre, when he chooses to attack climate policy, rather than criticize the current government. Stokkeland adds: – If this is just his “Morn’a, Jens” wink, I’ll give it to him. Having talked about the climate in the election campaign, Synnøve Kronen Synen, leader of Socialist Youth, says that the outcome is unnecessarily polarizing. – I think it is special that he uses the opportunity to draw on one of the biggest role models for climate activists. I experienced that many people in the school election were concerned about the climate: – The Gretha Thunberg generation is definitely not dead. My experience is that many people are worried after a summer of extreme weather. This is precisely why it is important to cut emissions and simultaneously create new jobs. The 2023 school election The results of the 2023 school election compared to the 2021 school election, when students voted as if it were a parliamentary election.

That Høgre wins the election does not mean that young people’s climate commitment is dead, says the Su leader. Populist move Leader in Nature and Youth, Gina Gylver stands behind the criticism. – Scary, says Nature and youth manager Gina Gylver. Photo: Håkon Mudenia / news – It is primarily frightening that Unge Høgre profiles itself as an anti-climate party. – It is also very petty that Svenneby says this, because in the past they have profiled themselves as a climate party. It is a populist move that causes the debate to become polarized at a time when unifying solutions should be found, so what they are doing now is disappointing and frightening. Unge Høgre is acting to create increased opposition to an international push for a better climate, says Gina Gylver to news. School election 2023 Pupils at secondary schools in Norway participated in the school election. This year, 391 pupils are participating. The election will be held on 4 and 5 September, and 368 pupils reported their results before the deadline. The school election is organized in the election year. The election should give the pupils the experience and practical experience of participating in a democracy. The election is similar to a real election, the pupils vote by placing their ballot in a ballot box. This year, the pupils can vote for the party standing for election in the county council election in the county where the school is located. news compares this year’s result with the school election in 2019. There are several reasons for this. The election organizer himself compares the results with the school election in 2019. The election four years ago was the first time the students voted as if it were a county council election. The school election in 2019 is thus more comparable to this year’s election than the school election in 2021 is. In opinion polls and in the election next week, the result will be compared to 2019.
