Jon Leirfall
Jon Leirfall (7 October 1899 – 12 June 1998) was a Norwegian politician for the Centre Party.
He was elected to the
Norwegian Parliament from Nord-Trøndelag in 1945, and was re-elected on five occasions. He had previously been a deputy representative from 1937 to 1945. He was secretary general of the Farmer's Party in 1933 and was succeeded by Hans Holten.[1]
Leirfall was born in Hegra and mayor of Hegra municipality in 1959–1961, and was thus its last mayor before its incorporation into Stjørdal municipality. Leirfall was then a member of Stjørdal municipality council in the periods 1961–1963 and 1963–1967.
Leirfall wrote several saga-pastiches, satirizing Norwegian politics, with his political friends and enemies thinly disguised as vikings and berserkers.
