Political views
Law enforcement
Outspoken on issues relating to law enforcement and the judiciary, Asmyhr often acts as party spokesperson on these matters. In response to the annual increase in numbers of aggravated sexual assaults in the capital Oslo in 2011, Asmyhr called for the establishment of women-only taxi companies.[2]
In the wake of case against the notorious child molester known as The Pocket Man, Asmyhr called for the implementation of Chemical sterilisation of convicted child molesters, warning against playing "Russian roulette with children's lives".[3] In the aftermath of the 2011 Norway attacks, he proposed a parliamentary ad hoc committee be set up to examine, assess and scrutinize the Norwegian Police Security Service efforts before, during and after the attacks.[4]
European integration
A lifelong proponent of Norwegian membership in into the European Union and European integration, Asmhyr was appointed to the central committee in the Norwegian branch of the European Movement International in 2011.[5] He led a group of dissenter when the Progress Party voted no to the EU Data Retention Directive in parliament.[6] After much debate, the measure was passed in the end, due to support from the Conservative Party as well as the Labour Party.[7]
