Nye Borgerlige is a right-wing populist and national-conservative party in Denmark. It combines a strict anti-immigration policy with a radical free-market economic agenda. The party advocates for unwavering national sovereignty and rejects supranational interference.

Values and Worldview

The party's foundation is built upon a classic "Denmark First" worldview. It views the Danish cultural community as a heritage worth protecting, threatened by mass immigration and the influence of Islam. Ideologically, it combines this cultural conservatism with a libertarian understanding of the state: the government should largely refrain from interfering in citizens' lives and the economy. Freedom here is defined as the absence of state paternalism, coupled with adherence to national traditions.

Policy Priorities

The party's agenda is characterized by a "zero-tolerance" approach to immigration, including calls for withdrawal from international refugee conventions. Economically, the party aims for significant tax cuts, the reduction of bureaucracy, and a drastic shrinking of the public sector. It primarily appeals to voters who find established right-wing populists too economically left-leaning and traditional liberals too lenient on immigration policy.

Role in the Political System

Strategically, the party positions itself as an uncompromising force on the right of the political spectrum, aiming to push the established political bloc further right. It acts as a corrective against the political consensus and challenges institutions with fundamental systemic criticism of the EU and international treaties. Its goal is to shift the political 'red line' and make it impossible to form a right-of-center government without incorporating its stringent demands.
