 Already before the national convention , the entire local party chapter in Osterøy was disestablished , but mainly due to the European Union controversy . The party had one representative in Osterøy municipal council at the time . One day after the national convention , delegate Kristian Eidesvik announced his withdrawal from the party , though he would sit through his tenure as member of Hordaland county council , which lasted until 1995 . Eidesvik was a former member of the central board , and also a former deputy member of Parliament . The same day former MP and youth wing leader Pål Atle Skjervengen withdrew , commenting that the libertarians " are asked by the party leadership to go to hell " . Skjervengen had been criticized by Carl I. Hagen from the rostrum at the national convention . Many years down the road Skjervengen joined the Conservative Party . Harald Eide Ellingsen , member of Stavanger city council , also left .
