This party does not have good attitudes towards immigration, the best argument for this statement is that mass murder Anders Behring Breivik who was responsible for murdering 77 people in Utoya Island was once a member of this party.

It’s actually interesting that this kind of party is getting support if the statistics shows that people generally are not having problems with immigrants, but that is a different topic.
