It is a real nytårstradition, that the opposition criticises the prime minister’s new year speech.
And that’s how it is in 2020, where Mette Frederiksen delivered his first new year speech as the prime minister of Denmark.
She had especially focused on the situation of vulnerable children and got into that more vulnerable children should be eligible for adoption.
the Liberal party’s president, Jakob Ellemann-Jensen, praises the prime minister for wanting to help disadvantaged children, but of course there is a “but”:
– Thank you for the speech Mette Frederiksen. Agree that we should always take the children’s party, he writes on Twitter.
– But missed the basic concrete answers to the challenges facing Denmark with the climate, well-being, and how we must continue to ensure the good times with jobs in the cities and rural areas, adding Ellemann-Jensen.
Sophie Løhde, the Liberal party’s political rapporteur, adding on Twitter:
– Many big and fancy words from the prime minister. However, no concrete response to neither the healthcare, the climate, the police, or how we ensure growth and jobs in the UK? Where were the answers to all the big challenges? Big words do it is not alone.
While Mette Frederiksen had a focus on the children, so she failed to go in depth with themes such as the climate and the differential pension which is otherwise one of the most central election pledges, from the Social democrats.
The last notes, the Danish people’s party chairman, Kristian Thulesen Dahl, is also.
– It surprises me very much that the prime minister did not come with anything new or specific in relation to her election promise of an early pension for the worn.
– It is now almost a year ago, she for the first time promised early retirement to run down. Now she must soon be more specific about who should have the right, say DF-the president in a written comment.
