Conservatives achieve sweeping international victories

Conservative Party leader Erna Solberg—nicknamed "Iron Erna"—will become Norway's new prime minister as the leader of a center-right coalition government likely including an anti-immigration party. Preliminary results from the country's parliamentary elections shows the Conservative Party got 26.8% of votes, the best result for the party in 28 years.  [Source] This follows closely on a sweeping victory for conservatives in Australia at the weekend.
