Politician

Snorre Valen was from 2003 to 2007 a member of the Trondheim City Council and a member of the Fylkesting of the then Sør-Trøndelag Province . In the 2009 parliamentary elections he was elected to the Norwegian national parliament Storting for the constituency of Sør-Trøndelag .

In 2015 he was appointed deputy party chairman of the SV. He has not been a member of the Norwegian parliament since September 2017, and in 2018 he announced that he would no longer stand for re-election of the deputy party chairman.

Positions

In February 2011, he officially proposed WikiLeaks to the Nobel Institute as a candidate for the Nobel Peace Prize .

Valen expressed criticism several times about the fact that Norway has a royal family . In January 2019 he was one of the co-initiators of a legislative proposal that would have turned Norway into a republic . The proposal was ultimately rejected by 36 votes to 130.
