As a leader, one must be able to withstand that some people say you should not keep the job, says Left leader Trine Skei Grande of the Norwegian newspaper Dagbladet.
– Now, are you generous?
– No, it seems I really don’t. So it must be. I remember when I began teaching was that it is impossible to get everyone in the class to like you. There is always someone at the back on the vindusrekka and think you are the teiteste in the world.
– A læreranalogi from the Left. Quite predictably?
– We are a lærerparti. The point was that we still have to lead. No one can be the chief place, if you can not tolerate that people believe you should not have the job.
your Problem is that these people on the “vindusrekka” is in your own party?
” I take me not so near of it, but the organization could probably be a bit annoyed over energilekkasjen. But there were two emails that were of a “distriktsopprør,” she says.
the Campaign against the Left –
– What about the figures that showed that 43 of your own listetopper mean you are not suitable?
– 101 of the listetoppene in the Left said I did a good job. I think that is quite uplifting. When we are struggling on the measurements, it is always easy to criticise, and in such times I think it is a lederjobb to be extra tolerant towards people who have a need to vent frustration.
You have also received a lot of support. Are you touched?
” It has been great, also for me personally. But motivation, my has never been bad. The bees die, the battle against climate change is in progress, and so we must use our time to talk about people – I think many Left-people are devastating when it comes such campaigns against us.
can WITHSTAND CRITICISM: Any leader who does not stand to hear that one should go off, should not lead, ” says Trine Skei Grande. Photo: Lars Eivind Bones / Dagbladet Show more
– Campaigns?
Many in the Left feel it distriktsopprøret was very medieskapt, yes. In sum, I think it was unifying for us as a party. The left is a party that is made for people who like to go uphill. We are not medgangssupportere.
Plan for success
– At one time or another had perhaps been nice with some more varied terrain?
– We have demanding voters. Our voters are the type that matches the Left and go out from the valglokalet and think “next time, it becomes something else”. It is well with demanding and ambitious, voters. It’s doing something with the policy our also.
– football team which constantly have to fight against relegation, tend to change the trainer after each?
– We do not lose voters to the other, but mostly to the fence. Where shall we lure them down, and it is our damned duty.
She brand Left
How then?
” We will beam out party, to show us up on the industry and the school also. The whole government must be able to show off the Liberal politics.
your goal Is just to slure between 3 and 5 per cent support forever?
– No. We can look towards other sosialliberale parties in Europe, they are located between 8 and 15 per cent support. We can also get to. The potential is huge. The vast majority have voted the Left one time or another in our lives – the challenge is to get many to do it with the same options, ” says Skei Grande and laughs.
– And how are you going to get to it?
– We are big among the youngest voters, we are in tune with the future. We do it well at the skolevalg. I think the Left is often a little ahead of its time. We located some snap before many others, and is not always given credit for the measures of our until afterward.
Not natural to give up the next year
– An example of that, thank you?
– Take plastic bags. We were verbally abused, but now the phases of the stores even out plastic bags. People see it was a necessary action to reduce the plastforurensing.
– there Are others in the party – no one mentioned and none forgotten – who are positioning themselves to take your job?
– No, but I hope we have many that can take my job. As a leader, it is my job to cultivate up other management talent to succeed me.
it Is natural for you to give you as a leader by the congress in 2020?
– No.
