STOCKHOLM (Dagbladet): – I am convinced that it is possible to change things for the KrF in Norway, says Ebba Busch, leader of the Christian Democrats in Dagbladet.
While the KrF has fallen below the blockade limit and is fighting a battle against cancellation as a political force in Norway, the Swedish sister party Kristdemokraterna is a success story.
Led by the Norwegian medium Busch, the party managed to attract new electoral groups with a softer abortion policy and a stricter immigration and crime policy.
On Wednesday, Busch declared the right-wing bloc’s electoral victory in Swedish politics as the party’s first leader. A support of 5.3 percent of her makes her optimistic about hiring the ruling party.
Majority abortion behind closed doors
– In conclusion
– We are the ones who have been decisive for the change of government that is taking place in Sweden, he tells Dagbladet.
In KrF, an internal battle is now underway over which direction the party should take. Dagbladet wrote about how party forces want to copy Busch.
KrFu leader Hadle Bjuland he proposed that the party protect the current abortion law. On Friday, party leader Olaug Bollestad will address the national council for the first time since the storm.
Busch says that not long ago KD had the same problems as KrF.
– We were way behind a number of years ago, but we managed to reverse the situation, says Busch before giving clear advice to her Norwegian friends, as she calls them:
– You have to show what difference a vote makes for the party.
Sources: I want to copy it
– A kind of racism
While nearly all Swedish political parties up until this year’s election campaign refused to enter into any formal cooperation with the controversial and right-wing nationalist Swedish Democrats, Busch and his party have long reached out.
– We were the ones who were ready to talk to everyone in Swedish politics and start talking to the Swedish Democrats, says Busch.
A tough immigration and integration policy has become something of a trademark for the young party leader.
– You have been accused of being xenophobic when you say that everyone must adapt to Swedish law and Swedish values. It’s when you don’t do that that it becomes a type of racism, because it’s the areas with high immigrant density that are most affected, Busch says.
Recently, Dagbladet was able to say that the majority in the national council of the KrF youth party wants to support the current abortion law with self-determined abortion up to the 12th week. This is the same line taken by KD, where they do not fight for stricter access to abortion in Sweden.
– Time for the Swedes to wake up
– Great thanks
Busch points out that issues of value are more than the fight against abortion, which KrF has put a lot of effort into.
– I believe that the decisive differences on the issues of value, not only on abortion, but also on integration, I believe will be decisive for doing better in future measurements, Busch tells Dagbladet.
– Do they have to be harder?
– Yes, they have to take tough measures for weak values, I would say. I am convinced that Olaug and my KrF friends can do it.
Abortion bomb
Roser Listhaug
Before the election, FRP leader Sylvi Listhaug came out and paid tribute to Busch. The FRP is usually positioned closer to the Swedish Democrats, but Listhaug said he has as much to spare as his fellow party leader.
– She is a breath of fresh air that has put aside the naive line. The Christian Democrats have a lot to offer them, Listhaug told NRK.
Busch says he is happy with the support of the FRP leader.
– We do not support each other on all political issues, but I am happy that you see that we are not responsible for this anxiety that Swedish politics had when you hardly dared to talk about the fact that certain values must apply to everyone, Busch tells. Dagbladet.
