Agree

No

Given their fiscal conservatism and emphasis on reducing government expenditure, the Progress Party might lean towards not increasing pension payments as a default position, unless it aligns with broader fiscal strategies or reforms.

Slightly agree

Yes, but only for low-income pensioners

Neutral

Yes, adjust them yearly for cost of living

Adjusting pensions yearly for the cost of living could be seen as a reasonable measure by the Progress Party, balancing between fiscal responsibility and ensuring pensions retain their value. However, their support might depend on the specifics of the proposal and its impact on overall government spending.

Slightly disagree

Yes, for government workers but not for politicians

While the Progress Party is critical of certain government expenditures, they are unlikely to specifically target politicians for exclusion from pension improvements. Their policies generally do not single out politicians in this manner.

Disagree

Yes

The Progress Party (Fremskrittspartiet) in Norway tends to favor tax cuts and limited government spending. They might not support across-the-board increases in pension payments for retired government workers without conditions, as this could conflict with their general stance on fiscal conservatism.

Disagree

No, they should be reduced

While the Progress Party advocates for reduced government spending, outright suggesting that pension payments should be reduced could be politically sensitive and unpopular. They are more likely to support reforms or efficiency measures rather than direct cuts.
