New Government

  • General elections April 2019 – former PM party Centre

suffering defeat.

to succeed.

  • SDP-Centre-Green-Left-SFP coalition
  • Platform: increased public spending, county reform,

tripartite cooperation, supply-side employment reforms cancelled.

Give tasks

9 lobbyist out 10 fail when asked: “Ok. I’m enthusiastic. What should I do?” Know where, when, with whom – AND GIVE CONCRETE TASK.

Pay attention also to the engine room

Minister is busy. MP is valuable if in a right place. Political advisor hold the pen and have the ear. Civil servants are forever.
