This week pulled the conservative party’s Helge André Njåstad from all positions in the party. Thus, there are five politicians in Parliament who just in the course of the last year have lost all their positions. There are 169 representatives in Parliament, and that we now have a discredited club with Trond Giske (Ap), Kristian Tonning Riise (H), Ulf Leirstein (Frp), Mazyar Keshvari (Frp) and the aforementioned Njåstad, who shall be seated until the parliamentary elections in 2021, is sensational. It inhibits and impairs the naturally partigruppene, but first and foremost it is that helthet serious for The trust.
Scandals has hit the Parliament in the last year, is both about morality relating to fellows and to the spending. They are not only personal, but also structural. Both metoo cases, mess with the vouchers and to and with charges of aggravated fraud, makes an impression on the voters and has affected the political parties hard. Likestillingspartiet Ap experienced a sharp fall of the measurements in connection with the process in their party.
Reiseregningssakene stand in a glaring light compared with regular innstramminger that Parliament itself adopts for others. Their own pension scheme is still gilt-edged, while most norwegians must expect to stand longer in the job. Njåstad let jobbmøter in connection with the holiday, and wrote parts of the expenditure on the Parliament’s expense. At the same time, voters pay a tax of flybonus, transportansatte tax of fribilletter etc. It is not certain innstrammingene is unreasonable or unwise. On the contrary, many of them may be necessary. Members of parliament who does not live as they accurately predict, giving your opponents free arguments. It weakens the Parliament’s function as the reformer and regeneration of the community.
In addition to the five officials who have lost their positions, also have The presidency and administrative management provided a serious crisis of confidence. The huge kostnadssprekken in connection with the construction of the new tunnel, new reception and refurbishment of the new premises of the Parliament, puts the spørsmåltegn by the ability to plan costly investments. And the credibility to demand it of others. Altogether, this has been an annus horribilis. Partigruppene in Parliament must reflect the above developments. We live in a time where the trust sits looser than before. Political systems in our immediate vicinity are experiencing major problems due to this, and here at home draws Norwegian politicians even up to the strong trust that is one of the most important components in our society. They must then deliver it yourself.
