…and even greater thanks to Pelle Dragsted, Red-Green Alliance member of the Danish parliament, and author of a new book called “Nordic Socialism,” who I was thrilled to spend time with recently. The socialism Curley maligns seems to be working fairly well in Denmark! @pelledragsted.bsky.social
One the happiest populations on Earth AND one of the world’s highest employment rates. Workers get guaranteed paid time off and parental leave. Education and healthcare are free. Productivity is high. As Dragsted said to me, “This creates a good society for working people.”
Okay as the latest Nordic convert, I gotta read this. Thank you for the recommendation!
oh hey they're also funding passivhaus retrofits of social housing. good for the planet, and good for the residents.
We love it!! Working people 🤝 climate action
It was such a pleasure to meet you, Katie! Your campaign and the popular support for your ideas gives hope to the world for a future beyond Trumps oligarchy❤️
Go Red Green Alliance! Loved their inclusive campaign posters when I was there, and my progressive Danish friends were supportive. The complexities of Folktinget politics are way above me, though!
