A Danish snap election, hardline citizenship politics, and AI quietly killing entry-level jobs: Denmark heads to the polls on 24 March after a strategically-timed election call, with Greenland politics potentially reshaping who can form government. Kalpita and Fionn dig into a Dansk Folkeparti citizenship controversy targeting an 18-year-old’s surname, the risk that immigration rhetoric tightens further for internationals, and Dinero’s AI-first support model as a warning sign for anyone trying to break into Denmark’s white-collar job market before ending on the only policy platform that unites the nation: bring back potatoes.
