The Liberals want to gather the blue ones on tax cuts (NRK “Politisk kvarter”)
On Tuesday, the Liberal Party presents its alternative state budget. Venstre’s deputy leader Sveinung Rotevatn says the party will ask for civic gathering until the election in 2025 with the fight issues reduced reduced tax and duty pressure and reduction of public expenditure.
– What we prioritize in our alternative state budget is to remove the entire additional employer’s tax that the current government has introduced and from which they will collect NOK 8.5 billion in 2024. This is money that goes straight to the bottom line of virtually all of the country’s employers . It weakened the profitability of the companies and, in addition, it destroys wage formation. This is money that is extracted from the workers. so our call to the other bourgeois parties is that we should get together that when we get power in 2025, if we win the election, we must remove the additional employer’s tax as soon as possible.
When asked where the money will be taken from, Rotevatn replies:
– We get money from a number of different areas. Among other things, we are removing a number of the unnecessary expenses that this government has incurred – largely because of the election promises from Sp such as cheaper ferry tickets and the unnecessary division of county councils and municipalities. In addition, we are making a number of structural measures, especially to make it more profitable to work. For example, changes in the pension system. One of our proposals is to remove the government contribution to the AFP, an early retirement scheme which basically gives everyone the wrong incentives to retire early and which is also unfair.

New pension reform: Must work longer (leader, Dagbladet)
Brenna would like to think that we should stay in the job longer, but it doesn’t help when employers want you out as soon as you pass 60, or hardly hire people over 50. There is a big gap between the reform’s ambitions and the realities in large parts of the labor market; especially in the private sector, but also in the public sector. The sea
All tax promises must be broken (Trygve Hegnar’s manager, Finansavisen)
SV’s fiscal policy spokesperson, Kari Elisabeth Kaski, sets the bar high when, before the budget negotiations with the red-green government start, she says that “all the government’s tax promises can fail”. We believe that Finance Minister Trygve Slagsvold Vedum knows how to put Kaski in his place, so we believe that neither companies nor individuals will receive large tax increases in 2024, and certainly not much in the election year 2025. The most frightening thing is Kaski’s claim that “the tax level in Norway is not particularly high compared to other countries’. With a salary today of NOK 700,000, which is slightly above the average income, the marginal tax is now 43.4. Ridiculously high level of taxation. The sea
