(Copenhagen Post) The lawyer Rasmus Paludan, a right-wing Islam critic and prospective MP who founded the party Stram Kurs (“hard line” or “tight course”) in July 2017, is under fire for his increasingly provocative means of drawing attention to himself.
Paludan’s modus operandi is to travel to a multi-ethnic area and hold an impromptu “demonstration” — a Q&A that he records and then broadcasts on his YouTube channel.
Paludan has been accused of being deliberately provocative, and critics have questioned why the police are allocating resources to providing him with security at happenings that are clearly not demonstrations.
