Liberal Alliance leader Alex Vanopslagh addressed a "radical right" audience in London, asserting his rejection of experts' "conspiracy theories." His remarks come as his party, Venstre, has taken a noticeable shift to the right under his leadership, reportedly guided by a powerful secretariat.

The article highlights a shift in the party's political positioning. While Liberal Alliance was initially founded with an ambition for "zero growth," its current stance appears to be more accommodating towards a larger public sector, a departure from its original ideology.

During a parliamentary session, Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen faced opposition questioning. Notably, Vanopslagh, who was a contender for the prime minister post, was absent from this particular exchange, despite his colleague Troels Lund Poulsen being present.
