Cabinet of Helle Thorning-Schmidt

Who is Cabinet of Helle Thorning-Schmidt?

The cabinet of Prime Minister Helle Thorning-Schmidt is the current cabinet government of Denmark, announced on 3 October 2011. It is a coalition between the Social Democrats, Danish Social Liberal Party and Socialist People's Party.

Because of the government's minority status and its dependency on the support of the opposition, Venstre, the government had to jettison many of the policies that it had given during the election campaign. Although critics have accused the government of breaking its promises, other studies argue that it has already accomplished half of its stated goals, blaming instead poor public relations strategies for its increasingly negative public image.
