The Norwegian Patriots (Norwegian: NorgesPatriotene, NP) was a short-lived political party in Norway led by Øyvind Heian whose sole aim was to stop non-western immigration to Norway. The party ran for election limited to the county of Vestfold[1] in the 2009 parliamentary election, where it received a mere 184 votes. The disappointing result lead to the party being "put on ice",[2] and on 23 September it was announced that the party was dissolved.[3]
