During her speech to SV’s national board on Saturday, party leader Kirsti Bergstø talked about the wall of shame, with what she calls “gold nuggets from the kingdoms” – When I come to the office in the morning, it is clear to me who and what we actually work for. And the wall, it has received attention far beyond Norway’s borders. Two hours ago, Elon Musk posted a photo of Bergstø in front of the wall, with the comment “Wow, this is crazy”. – I agree, baby! This is crazy, said Bergstø to the comment. – It must change – We cannot accept that people are let down by the community. And while we do this, the right wing works hard to weaken people’s welfare, and listen to the riches on the wall. She talked about increased prices and the expensive time that affects most people’s wallets. – The government’s job should be to reduce the differences and ensure that everyone contributes to the community. That’s what they were elected on. At the same time, the 2,500 richest families in Norway own as much as the 1.5 million families who have the least. And the 400 richest in the country have only gotten richer this year, said Bergstø, adding: – This is Norway in 2024, and that must change. Fearing the right-wing Bergstø also spoke about the climate and the natural disasters that have hit the world recently. And then about the right side and that “Jern-Erna” is back. She believes it bodes poorly for the disabled and those on sick leave. – Both Frp, NHO, Venstre and parts of the Conservative Party are announcing cuts in sick pay. We have no reason to believe that Jern-Erna will leave the sick pay scheme alone, said the party leader from the podium. Bergstø believes that this shows what the right-wing side puts first. – Cuts in sick pay do not make anyone healthier, but sick people get sicker. Therefore, we will never, ever accept this.
