Anna1849 referred to a Facebook post by Sara Franzen, who criticized the Green Party's school policy spokesperson Mohamed Abdukani. Franzen wrote that the criticism did not concern his statements, but what she described as difficulties expressing himself and showing understanding of the topics he spoke about. She stated that Abdukani had lived in Sweden for 23 years and had been politically active for nine years. Franzen emphasized that the role, according to her, involved responsibility for shaping and presenting the party's school policy, including through motions, reform programs, budget demands, and participation in the media. She argued that the position required linguistic and analytical skills and claimed that Abdukani was not suitable for it. She also criticized the Green Party, the Social Democrats, the Left Party, and the Centre Party, asserting that the parties did not place enough importance on schools, education, and the Swedish language. According to Franzen, the situation was a betrayal of the school, the teachers, and the children's future. #politik #utbildning #svenska (translated)
