Freedom and security mean a lot to the people of Sweden. It is disgusting that welfare becomes ethnically demarcated. We can afford and have an ethical responsibility to have refugee immigration, but it must be done in the right way without economic neoliberalism. But the election and the blue-brown's Tidö agreement show so far that if the red-green are to rule again,...

The red-greens must protect freedom and solidarity
Almost as many die in workplace accidents as in gang crime. Hundreds of workers, especially men, kill themselves every year because of the hard working life.

Lina Stenberg for Dagens Arena has tried to explain this by reading the parliamentary motions. I have made my own additions especially if they are red-green…

Equality builds the strong society. Why should low-paid workers, those looking for work, those born with a disability or those whose working life is cut off live significantly differently from ordinary people. And why should ordinary people be significantly worse off than the rich? We red-greens must believe in freedom under responsibility and equality if people are to vote...

Admittedly, the formation of the government in the autumn and spring involved a difficult process, but the result leaves much to be desired. The Social Democrats compromised on labor rights, the defense tax and market rents in new production. It is not worthy of a party…
