Government? No thanks! – Dagbladet.no

Government? No thanks! – Dagbladet.no

(Dagbladet): And she has haste.

– I do not have power for power’s sake. That’s because there is much we should have done. Especially in the climate and environment we have a very hurry, says Liberal Party leader Trine Skei Grande.

Dagbladet power panel has named her country’s fourth most powerful politician, after Prime Minister, Finance Minister and center colleague Knut Arild Hareide (KrF).

The reason is that the four has an agreement, and that through the budget agreement governs over the big money and the big decisions in politics. What has gotten Left out of it?

– We have received that add up to cuts in transport and a greater shift to green tax shift than ever before. We’ve got to measures against child poverty. And Teacher Promotion, as the bourgeois agree, is very important, says Grande.

In the previous period it was she and Borghild Tenden amounted Liberal group.

Nothing they they suggested, was adopted.

No other voted for the Liberal proposal electrification of oil platforms.

– Now we have a unanimous resolution in Parliament for electrification on the shelf! This shows some of the dynamics that occur when a centrist party sits on the rocker. It would have been difficult to achieve in government, as small party. But on the flip-flop in the Parliament creates a dynamism when minority government.



Mighty on rocker

– So you are in the ideal position?

– Yes, I think we get a lot out of that position and the size of the we have. The beauty of minority government are all arguments required public in a quite different way than with a majority government. Ministers must stand in parliamentary hall in a completely different way. One can create dynamics and get moving in large cases, as we got to the electrification.

– How is it to be jointly responsible for a budget that has been judged as unsocial?

– The government presented, was poor on many points. Very many were astonished, and the mind in the Liberal group of missing green tax shift was genuinely felt. But then we negotiated with them, placed much good and got a teal budget that is a very much more popular budget. We get praise from political opponents to have done a good job, it takes we to us. Now get all four- and five-year olds free core in kindergarten and we’ve finally gotten through that prices for kindergarten for the families with the worst advice, to be down. These are important measures for the most vulnerable groups, says Grande.

Budget negotiations in Parliament went out, and fiscal debate had to be postponed.

But according Grande was neither tamping unit or profanity, and no more noise than the last time it was a minority government.

Prime Minister Erna Solberg has nevertheless said that one should learn the budget process in the fall and do something different next year.



Pre Conversations

– There will be no other procedure. We shall not be included in the budget process. But what is wise, is to clarify some items in advance. Which by definition is difficult, is that Left and Progress Party shall agree on vehicle taxes. Therefore we have a point in the budget agreement that we should take discussions on car taxes in advance. There may be conflict. We will not talk about the budget, for you must see the whole before you can be liable for a budget. It is for example clear that the way the government took down the wealth tax at the same time as they did those initiatives towards disability, was stupid, we must see the whole picture, So even if we take out a point in advance, it commits not for anything else says Left- conductor.

– But can such advance conversations help to bind you more to the government, get you one step closer to participation in government?

– Erna would probably like bind us more, but it’s not our job. It is not possible to be a little in government, it’s either or. It is clear it is more comfortable for a government to be a majority government, but that does not mean it is right.



Build up time Norway

– So you and Left are no closer participation in government?

– No, we are not. For Left would have been difficult to be in this government. But we see that we can lift the key issues. On socialist side, we agree on teacher commitment. One must understand what has brought the four-socialist parties together. That’s the challenge of turning Norway from being an oil nation to a nation of knowledge. Therefore we agreed learning initiative, she said.

– I think Siv has a more economic argumentation, I have a climate argumentation. But the result is quite similar. Oil Tida over soon, We will create a business and jobs of the future. Then we must have massive investment in school and research. When it is not enough just to focus on high taxes, which Labor, if we are to keep our welfare state. We must also have a business that manage to tackle the challenges ahead.
