Bødskov and Social Democrats open door for new coalition

Morten Bødskov, Minister for Industry, Business and Financial Affairs, express strong interest in forming a new centrist government with the Liberals and Moderates following the next election, despite recent poor polling. Bødskov emphasizes the need for the government to prioritize business conditions and competitiveness. Voices from the Liberals, like Stephanie Lose, echo this sentiment, desiring continuity of the SVM government’s political direction. However, Lose insists that her party retains its independence. Recent polling shows a decline in voter support for the government, registering only 37.3% combined approval. Bødskov’s intentions are criticized by the Red-Green Alliance’s leader, Pelle Dragsted, who argues this coalition would maintain tax cuts and prioritize affluent interests, offering voters a choice for those wanting a government more aligned with ordinary people.
