Arbeiderpartiet tok ned side om rentekutt

Arbeiderpartiet tok ned side om rentekutt

Norges Bank increased its governing interest rate on Thursday, causing controversy among political parties. The Nordland Arbeiderparti removed their website that displayed a highly debated and tense campaign slogan for the Arbeiderpartiet. The slogan, "Tax cut for all or tax cut for a few?", was displayed on a poster that was up on Thursday morning before the interest rate announcement, but was no longer visible by Thursday evening.

The Arbeiderpartiet's central communications head, Emma Giskås, explained to Nettavisen that the website was created during the election campaign to highlight the stakes of the election. She said there is a difference between the right-wing that focused on tax cuts for the richest, and the Arbeiderpartiet that focused on secure economic management for everyday people's finances.

She added that it is natural for the party to regularly update its websites. Even though the website is down, it is still possible to find it through the Wayback Machine.
