History

edit

The party was established on 10 September 1965. Amongst its founders were Niels Westerby and Børge Diderichsen, who had left Venstre over taxation policy.

The party received 2.5% of the national vote in the 1966 elections, winning four seats.[1] However, the party lost all four seats in the 1968 elections.[2] It was dissolved the following year.
