I moved to Denmark so hello! :)
I'm curious of your examples actually as I'd like to learn more about the Danish process specifically.
As for ECIs, the wikipedia page does show successes. Of course I have my doubts this will even reach the necessary 1 million signatures (and honestly needs more cause many will be invalidated), but if it does reach 1 million, it does have a shot of doing something!
- encom 2y agoWelcome to Denmark. Pardon the weather. The danish petition site is here: https://borgerforslag.dk/ https://borgerforslag.dk/ Of 1843 petitions, 52 have been presented in the Folketing, and some of those are silly/unrealistic, like removing tax on fuel. Others had very widespread support and a lot of news coverage, like banning genital mutilation of children, but nothing came of that. I think the enthusiasm for this initiative has declined greatly, since only one petition got enough votes (50.000) in 2024 to reach the Folketing. People have realised it's pointless.
- sighinggoldfish 2y agoThanks for the context! Unfortunate to hear and curious to do some follow-up reading. And at least the weather has picked up a bit right now haha! Time to get off the web and take advantage of it as Denmark gets so nice once the weather is good.
