5 March 2024 at 15:16 The Storting voted down motion of no confidence against Brenna The representatives of the Progressive Party were left alone in supporting the motion of no confidence against Minister of Labor and Inclusion Tonje Brenna when the Storting went to vote today. The vote took place by roll call in the Storting hall. The representatives who supported the motion shouted “yes” and those who did not, shouted “no”. There was not a full house during the voting. The number of votes was 13 against 89. The Labor minister also avoids a decision on strong criticism for breaching the rules of competence, despite the fact that the Conservative Party, KrF and MDG wanted this. The majority in the Storting with Ap, Sp, SV, Venstre and Rødt is instead in favor of a milder decision to criticize Brenna. A no-confidence motion is a motion put before the Storting. If it is adopted, it means that the majority in the Storting no longer have confidence in the government or in a single minister, who is thus forced to resign. A criticism decision is a solid scratch in the paint for Brenna, but it has no practical consequences for her work as a minister.
