With a round trip through six counties in four days, Prime Minister Erna Solberg of Høyre (H) will launch this year’s election campaign.
Solberg had crisis-sunglasses handed to her at the last minute before she began Høyres election campaign on Friday morning.
–
Officially, Høyre will open its election campaign on August the12th, but Solberg has a packed, four day program in Eastern Norway.
–
‘We try out the election campaign before we put on full oufits for the whole party,’ she said.
–
‘It’s a nice time in the summer. It’s party time and people are gathered together. So, of course, we have issues to present, and we’ll be where the people are,’ she said.
–
On Friday the trip takes her to Oppland and Hedmark. She’ll go to cultural events, such as the opening of Hakkebakkeskogen and a visit to Prøysenstua. A tour of technology companies at Raufoss is on her program.
–
As they sing in England, ‘She’s here, she’s there, she’s every_ _ _ _ingwhere’, including the Elton John concert at Hamar will see Solberg with a smile on her face, and a tap to her foot.
–
She also gives notice of real political developments, for example a promise of research and technology, and new equipment for the police.
