GARDERMOEN (Dagbladet): – FRP’s parliamentary group wants a tax profile where the average Norwegian receive significantly more tax cuts than what they have accomplished so far, says FRP’s parliament Ulf Leirstein, who sat as Deputy Finance Committee from 2005 to 2011.
This weekend arranges FRP congress at Gardermoen, and Leirstein is very clear that the parliamentary group has great expectations that the party leader and finance minister Siv Jensen delivers on this in next year’s budget.
– It is important for us to reach out to the general population when it comes to tax cuts. Everyone should get pleasure from it, not just a few.
Right earn more than FRP
In “Election Survey 2013″ which came out last year, figures speak. 75 percent of the Progress Party voters have low or middle income, while 75 percent of Conservative voters have high or medium income.
Low income means income up to and including NOK 500 000, middle income is income from 510 000 million and 850 000. High income is over 860 000.
In other words, tax cuts the government has introduced so far greater extent benefited Conservative voters than FRP’s voters.
The government’s budget proposal for 2016 showed Siv Jensen graphs that the ten percent that has the second highest so-called equivalent gross income – a calculation method which also takes into account children in the household – would get most in tax relief.
Consumer Economist Nigel Sandmæl DNB concluded that “the super-rich are the big winners in the budget.”
– it is true that FRP’s voters on average have lower incomes than the Conservatives voters. Therefore, it is Conservative voters who have earned most of the tax cuts the government has introduced so far, says Johannes Bergh at the Department of Social Research, which was one of the researchers behind the “Election Survey 2013″.
Belief in Siv
– Claystone, what do you think of that tax cuts so far have benefited Conservative voters more than FRP voters?
– I’m not necessarily agree in the manufacture. But as soon as you touch the wealth tax and cuts it, then it will always look at the examples that it is the rich who get the big cuts.
– Do you expect now that Siv Jensen listening to the parliamentary group’s request?
– I have noted that Siv says it comes tax cuts, and I’m probably most concerned with the past. If we get a significant focus focus on tax cuts, so most people will notice it more than tax cuts.
Getting support of Hagen
Also Hagen believes Siv must adjust tax cuts down on at grade ladder.
– I would say that one should fight for tax cuts for those with low and middle income, regardless of what they are voting on. We will provide tax relief to most people, he says to Dagbladet.
In a post at the Congress on Saturday followed Soviknes up with enticing Per Sandberg and the program to go to attack on property tax.
– it is possible to run municipal no property tax, that goal we must never give up. It is deeply unfair and unsociable. It should be removed, but it is not majority. But we can learn from our Danish neighbors, let us go to election on tax stop, also on property tax! shouted Søviknes from the scene.
Siv Jensen says she listens to what the party says, but will not enter into discussion about next year’s budget.
– The are many tasks to be solved in the state budget for 2017, and I follow closely the debate that goes on landsmøtet.Mmen what I can assure is that the government submits the state budget until October, says Jensen in a brief comment.
But in his speech to the congress Saturday, she gave a little hint about their aspirations for the budget.
– We have to let people keep more of their income, she said there, and added:
– Dear Jonas, increased taxes are vision resolved. It will weaken firms – do they hire more.
