…she’s gone. My personal feelings on the matter shall remain just that.
However, the history of her reign is a pretty good reason why you should always avoid voting for populist, “I’m alright Jack” right-wing parties. Whilst life might be better for you in the short term, your countrymen in other parts of your country will not be so lucky. They will never get a chance recover from a few years of “Greed is good” politics.
Once you have dismantled a “civil society” there are precious few ways to build it back up again.
Norwegian voters, take heed.
I agree with you about dismantling a ‘civil society’… is not good at any time. The legacies the politicians leave behind are hard to contemplate… Scary… Ever thought of going into politics? And do an honest job? Love, Me, xx
Thanks for the warning, Stan. I think we are too often ruled by the maxim that “greed is good”. The Financial crisis is also a moral crisis. Would have been nice if “someone” could come up with a different set of values?
