The central question is what helps the most when everything has become more expensive: Free after-school education or property tax? It is one of the main topics in news’s metropolitan broadcast from Bergen on Tuesday evening at 20:00. This is the last of news’s metropolitan debates before the 2023 election.

Firefighter Arild Hovland wanted to do something about the development and created a new offer for young people in the district. You can read more about that here:
