The Radicals failed in the economic policy, since the party in december negotiated a finanslovsaftale in place together with the S-the government, SF, Enhedslisten and the Alternative.
It takes the Liberal party’s president, Jakob Ellemann-Jensen.
– I must say that I, at best, been disappointed. The Radical has, unfortunately, failed in the economic policy.
– We have, for the first time in living memory, got a budget that makes all danes poorer, which makes it harder to operate, and the barriers to employment, he says.
the Left-the president had hoped that The Radicals with a political leader, Morten Østergaard, at the head “would be reason, and the principal’s voice.”
– It is not. They are blown out as left-wing, says Jakob Ellemann-Jensen.

– It has been our policy all the time, that the tax on inheritance shall be the same for all, so it may not come as any surprise.
– And it can hardly be a failure, when it is our policy, and we have found it in lots of years, she says.
the Increase of stay – and gaveafgiften has been criticized, both by business and the blue block.
Critics believe that it can end up putting a tremendous burden on the businesses that change hands from one generation to another. And, thus, reduce investment and cost jobs.
Jakob Ellemann-Jensen gets later on Sunday, the opportunity to express his views face-to-face for Morten Østergaard.
It happens when the two and prime minister Mette Frederiksen (S) will meet to partilederdebat by The People nytårsstævne at Hotel Nyborg Strand.
