Increased food prices and increased electricity prices affect the everyday lives of many Norwegians. – We have a government that sees the state’s money as its own. I see it as the people’s money, says party leader Sylvi Listhaug (Frp). – Sylvi Listhaug’s main priority is to cut wealth tax, so that many billions will go to the richest 1 percent. We aim to distribute this, replies Prime Minister Jonas Gahr St\u00f8re (Ap). While Ap is losing voters like never before, the number of Norwegians who will vote Frp at the next general election has skyrocketed. Both Listhaug and St\u00f8re believe their parties are best at easing the economy of the people – but how will they do it? I don’t think VAT cuts will help – We have an oil fund that could soon exceed NOK 20,000 billion. But a family of two adults and two children pays over NOK 40,000 more for food than they did three years ago, says Listhaug. Lowering the VAT on food is highlighted as a measure to bring prices down. St\u00f8re believes it will not last in the long run. – If food VAT had been a good move to be able to lower prices, we would have done it yesterday. – If we cut food VAT, it’s great day one, then that money will be eaten up in the grocery industry, in the shops and in the big chains. Jonas Gahr St\u00f8re (Ap) does not believe lower VAT on groceries will solve any problems.

Will give the people cheaper electricity – We see that people have received much worse advice in recent years. It has happened at the same time that the state has never been richer, says the Frp leader. Among other things, she refers to the fact that Norway earns large sums from selling power to the rest of Europe. – Access to cheap power has built Norway. We as politicians must take responsibility for the decisions we made, which were wrong. We should never have built the cables to Germany and Great Britain, which increased the capacity for export so dramatically, Listhaug acknowledges. Therefore, the state must give more back to ordinary people, she believes, and says that the FRP believes that so that no one should pay more than 50 \u00f8re for electricity. She believes that the current government spends too much money on immigration, aid and green energy, and would rather prioritize tax cuts and cheaper electricity. Sylvi Listhaug (Frp) will increase the electricity subsidy.

I would say it is the best electricity subsidy scheme in Europe and there is good reason for that, says St\u00f8re. Jonas Gahr St\u00f8re and Sylvi Listhaug in a debate about power production in Norway and how it affects ordinary people. Disagreement about offshore wind In addition, the government wants to electrify the shelf. It will not cut emissions, but increase the bill, says Listhaug. – And then they want to develop offshore wind, which provides more expensive electricity, says the Frp leader, who believes that hydropower should rather be invested in. St\u00f8re disagrees: – Hydropower must be improved and we must take care of our waterways. We are now developing power further. – Offshore wind is going to be something the whole world is working towards. There are not the same space problems as on land. We must not leave it to China to develop technology. Published 06.12.2024, at 10.09
