Liberal Party Withdraws from Coalition Talks in Oslo, Open to Negotiations with MDGs and Conservative Party

– We have notified the Conservative Party, Frp and KrF of this a short time ago.

– Do you want to negotiate only with the Conservative Party now?

– We are open to enter into negotiations with the Conservative Party and to form a minority council with them. Then the Conservative Party knows that we are also ready at any time to enter into negotiations with the MDGs, says Bjercke to Avisa Oslo.

– Will you repeat the call to the Conservative Party to include the MDGs?

– That door is open – the Right knows that well.

– Too bad

H, V, KrF and Frp were actually supposed to round off the polls with the bourgeois on Monday. But nothing ever came of it.

On Tuesday morning, Venstre’s Hallstein Bjercke confirms that they are withdrawing. They will only enter a city council with the Conservative Party – at the same time they are open to a solution that also includes the MDGs.

– It is a shame that the Liberal Party is withdrawing from further investigations. The Progress Party has been clear that we want to negotiate with all the bourgeois parties, after the election showed that the voters in Oslo want a new political direction. For FrP, political impact is most important, such as removing property tax, rehabilitating roads and strengthening care for the elderly, says Frp’s Magnus Birkelund.

– Unlucky signal

KrF’s Øyvind Håbrekke tells AO that he got the impression that Venstre had made up its mind before the probes started last Thursday.

– I see with astonishment that Oslo Venstre is taking a different line than the 60-year-long tradition of cooperation between our parties in order to drag politics as much as possible towards the centre. It sends an unfortunate signal, says Håbrekke.

KrF is still willing to continue talks with the four parties.

– We are used to thinking of the Liberal Party as an open and cooperative party. Therefore, it seems to me that this new line does not fit well with the Left’s tradition of ceiling height and liberal ideas. However, we can only take note of this.

– Now it is up to the Conservative Party, concludes Håbrekke.

– There are two ways we can lean

Avisa Oslo has asked Liberal leader Bjercke the following questions:

– What will be the parliamentary basis for a minority city council consisting of Conservative and Liberal?

– There are two ways we can lean. To the right in the form of Frp and KrF, and to the center and MDG, says Bjercke.

It is especially the differences within climate and environmental policy, drug policy and value issues that make cooperation with KrF and Frp not possible, confirms Bjercke.

– The soundings have not made us confident that the distance would be any less in negotiations, and there is therefore no basis on our part to proceed to the negotiation stage with KrF and Frp, says Bjercke to AO.

Regarding the concrete transport policy difference between the FRP and Venstre, he says that the two parties want in “exactly the opposite direction”.

– Oslo will become a greener and more liberal city, says Hallstein Bjercke.
