The political landscape in Norway is shifting dramatically ahead of the 2025 parliamentary elections.

The Progress Party (FrP), led by Sylvi Listhaug, has surged to become the largest party, overtaking the Conservative Party (Høyre) by 7 percentage points in a recent Norstat poll.

FrP now holds 25.3% of voter support, while Høyre has dropped to 20.5%.

This marks a significant reversal from just a few months ago when Høyre was leading.

Analysts attribute FrP's rise to voter dissatisfaction with the current government and a desire for a clear change in direction.

Meanwhile, traditional powerhouses like the Labour Party and the Centre Party continue to struggle with declining support.

The shift has sparked debates about the future of Norway's political alliances and the strategies of its major parties.
