The shooter in Norway was at least at one time a member of this party, and is consistent with his personal narrative.   So what does this “Neo-Nazi right wing extremist party” headed by a woman believe in?

– improving working conditions for teachers
– strong family ties are the basis of all successful societies
– spending the government oil money to take care of old people
– it’s founder was part of the anti-Nazi Resistance movement during world war II
– they’re libertarians and want lower taxes and less government
– concern that Islam is trying to take over Norway’s culture through lax immigration rules   (Norway is NOT a member of the EU)
– it strongly supports Israel
