HISTORY OF THE CENTRE PARTY

[01.12.09] The National Congress in 1920 was a resolution stipulating: “Norsk Landsmannsforbund will turn itself into a political party”. Bondepartiet (The Farmers’ Party) was born, although its name was first used in 1922.

Soria Moria II:

Political platform as basis for the Government’s work

[28.01.10] The new Norwegian government was formed on October 17 2005, consisting of the Labour Party, the Socialist Left Party and the Centre Party. These parties formed a coalition majority in the Storting (the Norwegian Parliament) following the 2005 elections. The Government's inaugural address was based on a political platform for the period 2005 - 2009 that was negotiated at the Soria Moria Hotel in Oslo.

Voters in the parliamentary election on 14 September 2009 granted these parties a renewed term of office, through continued majority in the Storting. During the nine days from September 28 until October 7, representatives from these parties negotiated this political platform as the basis for the Government's ongoing work for the coming period of
2009- 2013.

Here is 100 good reasons to vote for The Centre Party!

[01.12.09] Our heart is beating for the whole of the country

In the parliamentary period from 2009 - 2013, the Centre Party has grand visions for our country. In times of climatic crisis, food crisis and financial crisis, the Centre Party solutions are more necessary than ever before. The blind faith in the market solving all problems has shown itself not workable, and people are clamouring for more political and democratic control. The Centre Party will not leave political decisions to market forces, but will make it possible for people themselves to make decisions as to what kind of society we shall have.

The Centre Party is impatient and we want to get going! We are asking you to state your confidence in us to allow us to continue our project of building the country. We will push for more money to build roads, railway and super broadband. We want more environmental and climate friendly energy as well as establishing a green industry with focus on small and medium sized enterprises. There are still many tasks not yet completed and so the Centre Party is ready to make efforts to achieve further improvements in transport, communication and infrastructure, employment opportunities all over the country and good schools and good care there where you live.
