increasingly made comments about Muslims and used the slogan to "Make Denmark a Muslim Free Zone". In 1983, Glistrup was sentenced to three years in prison for tax fraud. While Glistrup was in prison, the pragmatists led by Pia Kjærsgaard took over the leadership of the party. Returning to the party after his release in 1987, Glistrup was no longer in control of it and internal strife broke out again. Glistrup refused to vote in favour of a proposition which had been agreed with the government in 1988 and was stripped of his position as a representative for the party. He was expelled from the national executive of the party in 1991 and went on to found his own party, called Prosperity Party (Trivselspartiet). The Progress Party won twelve seats in the 1990 Danish parliamentary election. Internal disputes were still far from resolved, and eventually led the party to be split when the Danish People's Party (DF) was founded by Kjærsgaard and the pragmatists in 1995. While liberals remained in the tax-focused Progress Party, the new DF included those who were concerned with immigration as their main issue. When the party's new leader Kirsten Jacobsen decided to leave politics in 1999, Mogens Glistrup was allowed back in the party again in lack of any leading figures. Because of this, the Progress Party's remaining four member in parliament left and founded Freedom 2000. Despite their own positions against immigration, Glistrup's comments in the media had become so extreme that they felt forced to leave the party (comments included "either one is a racist or else one is a traitor" and demanding all "Mohammedans" in Denmark to be interned in camps and expelled from the country). Glistrup led the party for the 2001 Danish parliamentary election, but it had lost almost all its support and received less than one percent of the vote. The party did not run in the 2005 Danish parliamentary election nor in the 2007 Danish parliamentary election. However, it did run for the local and regional elections in November 2005. The party generally received less than one percent of the votes (though with several local exceptions), and got one member elected in the municipality of Morsø serving as the last elected representative of the party until the end of 2009. In the 2019 Danish general election, the Progress Party supported The New Right. Ideology Main issues The party's
