The Norwegian Response Plan - When Russians Are Coming

This satirical skit from "Martin and Mikkelsen" was first shown on the NRK 1 state TV (https://tv.nrk.no/serie/martin-og-mikkelsen/sesong/1/episode/1) on the 23rd of March 2017 and later published on the Facebook of NRK Underholdning (https://nb-no.facebook.com/NRKUnderholdning/videos/martin-og-mikkelsen-brigadesjef-i-forsvaret/557148278281990/) (NRK Entertainment) on the 25th of May 2020. It's quite similar to the Swedish skit (https://t.me/BeornAndTheShieldmaiden/1948) from 2014 that we showed earlier, in which the Swedes intend to run to Norway fast as hell.

It is not explained why the Russians would suddenly decide to come, but at least the planned reception is more sensible, than what is heard nowadays from the talking heads of NATO.

The video is also published on our Telegram channel, "Beorn and The Shieldmaiden" - https://t.me/BeornAndTheShieldmaiden/2053

We could not find a similar satirical skit from the Danish TV, however, actual politics presented something just as hilarious: The real thing!

In 1972, right wing liberalist politician Mogens Glistrup founded The Progress Party and presented quite an unconventional party programme.

Among other things, the income tax was to be abolished; the public sector had to be greatly reduced (abolition of "papirnusseriet", the 'paper-pushing').

There were to be monthly elections for a greatly reduced Parliament, and, the Danish Defence was to be abolished all together and replaced by an answering machine saying "We Surrender" in Russian. (https://danmarkshistorien.dk/vis/materiale/fremskridtspartiet)

At the 1973 elections, the Progress Party became second largest with 15,9% of the votes and 28 members of parliament (out of 179).
