Iðunn Helga Þórsenn (Iðunn Helga Þórsenn; born 22 February, 1982) has been the Astjórn of Helmark since 5 May, 2016. Alongside this, Þorsenn also has served as the Leader of the Helmark National Union since the same date. Þórsenn's tenure has been seen as significantly more left-wing than her predecessor Hjorten Svarren's, and much of the HNU's electoral success during her leadership has been accredited to her leadership and popularity. At just 34 years of age, Þórsenn was the youngest ever Astjórn when she was appointed as party leader in 2016.
Þorsenn believes strongly in Helmark independence, however backs a democratic referendum and views that public opinion is not enough in favour to warrant a referendum as of 2023.
Early life
Þórsenn was born in the Vales city of Inníanni in inland southern Helmark, to a working-class family who had a long history of industrial working in the region. Þorsenn spoke Asthonic natively until age 4. She went to the reputable University of Tynwald in the early 2000s, graduating with a 2:1 in Politics in Helmark, a degree focused on Asthonic politics specifically.
