The newly formed Feminist Party has its eyes on the upcoming spring’s municipal elections and then on the parliament polls. 
 
The party described its plans as part of women’s efforts to gain equality, their long-standing fight against racism, and rooting out non-discrimination: all of which the incumbent party seems to have forgotten.
 
The Feminist Party is currently gathering supporters, so that it may become a formal party. 
 
For example, it is encouraged by Sweden, where the Feminist Initiative Party has managed to have a sway over a huge number of voters. The Swedish feminist party was founded in 2005.
 
“Our nuclear weapons are on the same scale: equality, non-discrimination and security between the sexes,” said Laura Franck, who is responsible for the party’s economic affairs and communications.
 
“We want to do politics in a new way,” Franck said.
