MOST INFLUENTIAL PARTY MEMBER

"The Danish People’s Party fundamentally stands for the same principles as when it was founded in 1995: opposition to Danish culture being overshadowed by massive Islamic immigration; defence of national sovereignty; opposition to ceding power to the European Union; traditional family values; a Christian cultural foundation; law and order; and a social balance that prevents the disintegration of society."
