What makes Nordic Freedom a right wing group? The scholarly opinions of the parties involved differ, some calling them right-wing simply because of a patriotic focus (while ignoring policies) while other scholars choose to base their branding on their political beliefs and party program and instead brand them left of center conservatives.
You can see sources for both of these views on for example True Finns wikipedia page.
The parties themselves consider themselves to be left of center conservatives, their party programme is certainly financially left as they're all strong supporters of the welfare state. They are however clearly socially conservative and patriotic parties. So instead of branding them far-right/right-wing based solely on "they do not want the highest immigration rates in the western world" maybe it makes more sense to base the branding on more than one single policy that isnt inherently right or left and instead brand them as "left of center conservative nationalism" or similar?
I mean the proposed immigration policies are basically the same as what most of the western world already have but just because the other parties in the same country advocate the most extreme immigration policies there is then suddenly a very moderate policy by the standards of the rest of the world is now extremist or far-right?
Seems odd to me. Nationalist/Patriotic is definitely a fair branding, right-wing does not make sense however. Centrist Nationalism or Left-Wing Conservative Nationalism makes far more sense, and theres scholarly sources supporting these stances on each of the parties wikipages.
