Labour Party Targets Young Voters for 2025

Published: 2024-08-04

Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre is making a strong push to reconnect with young voters ahead of the 2025 parliamentary elections.

Speaking at the AUF summer camp on Utøya, he highlighted the issue of "political loneliness" among youth, emphasizing the need for the government to address their concerns.

Støre announced that the Labour Party will prioritize policies aimed at young people, including increased support for housing ownership and education.

He acknowledged the party's poor performance among young voters in recent elections, particularly among young men, and vowed to engage with them through social media and community outreach.

Støre's message is clear: the Labour Party aims to be a voice for the youth, addressing their fears about the future and economic stability.
