So stuff have happened in Norway lately that ahve gotten more people active and taking interest in political activity. Not that I myself believe that political action wil ever becom part of any good solution. But if it triggers more people to look into whats going on it helps. Adn the first thing that happened was that Sylvi Listhaug from the progress party made a statement on Facebook that created an uproar in political circles. Enough that she had to appologise for the statement.
The initiall satement with a link to her own page that details the statement: need new tools for terror control. ANd the main points that creted the reactions is this: (translated) "We are facing a new time with forign warriers and terrorists attacking our national security. To protect our country we need new ways to revoke the citizenshipss of thous who attack Norways security and take away they're passports."
She had earlyer pressented a new law proposal that whould give them new and faster ways of doing this and ehr eis the reasoning that was included in that same statement: "The resons for why we proposed that this should be decided by the state department is because its a security messure. To prevent terror events rewoking citicenships must be initiated fast. Its not a matter of circumvent the priciples of the court, as some have claimed. The desicion can ofcource the presented before the court."
Now the issue I see here is that the new proposals may make it abel to take citicanship away from ANYindividual being a citicen in norway. Regardless of how long youve been a citicen. I have perosnally not actually been following this as it happened so I dont know too much about the reactions, but i asume it is something sililar. But the issue is that the reaction and statement is tooo much based in fear , be afraid of others. And that disregards why individuals end up doing the things they do.
After the reactions she gare a response to it on FB where it seems that the terroris event that happened some years ago that was refered to Norways 911 was used to claim she was hinting to that: Listhaugs felt response And then came the appology where she also stated the situation to be "kindergarden politics": Kindergarden politics, and im sorry
And to top it off, Sylvi posted a picture showing the typical armed terrorist on FB that she have sinse deleted and appologised for, where it stated: "The labour party things thatt he rights of the terrorists is more important then the security of the nation." and article about that: Høyre politikere om Listhaugs uttalelse den bør slettes og beklages
Moving on.......
And now energy, and how to give it away to the EU!. OR atleast htats what is attempted by whoever proposed this and made it into a parlament vote. That now have been voted on and got a majority of yes unfortunattly.( Drama in the ACER debate that eventually ended in a parlament yes vote) But this havent gone thought unnoticed as this became a huge issue of debate in manny political circles including the top workers union relating to energy and technology jobs. And understandably so, as it signs hte rights to controll hwo much energy is produced when and where over to the EU via the organisaction named ACER. And why whould Norwegen politicians what that? IF we only knew.
An interesting note however is that the Labour party was strongly for this dela with ACER, while the Labour union is against it.(Labour partys yes creates unease in the Labour union) Dont they see the disconnect? And ther eis a new FB group being made that now ahve some 110 000 members thats against the ACER deal. (Stopp ACER) and thats only the once whos activly doing or seeking action to prevent and stop this. There is likely a whole lot more that is agaisnt it but is held back by the notion of "what can little me do about it?" being essnetially what a relative responded with when i asked him. But this does seem to wake some more individuals up to the fact that something is not right.
Now just to mention, the vote for yes did not come without any demands from Norways part. This article show the list and an article about it. (in Norwegen) And thouse demands is essentially describing that the controll and owndership of enegy production should be in the hands of the norwegen Gouvernment and its departments. But this issue is not over yet so how wil it end up? time will tell. As there is now a stronger move towards getting Norway out of the EU del called EØS agreement as a ressult of all this.
