Mr. Husis wrote that French protests and demands for more welfare resources could give a misleading picture of the country's public sector. He stated that France's public spending accounted for about 57 percent of GDP, compared to Sweden's 50 percent, and that this share was the second highest in the EU. He claimed that the French, even more than the Swedes, had become accustomed to the state taking care of people throughout their lives. He also noted that around five million migrants, mainly from the Middle East and North Africa, had come to France in recent years and that unemployment among these groups was around 20-25 percent. Mr. Husis accused LFI, which he described as left-extremist and violence-advocating and as the French sister party of the Left Party, of inflaming discontent to win votes. He wrote that the same thing would happen in Sweden when riots eventually began. #Frankrike #välfärd #protester (translated)

Leopold wrote that the media's attitude towards democracy had become clear during the 2026 election. He stated that Ekot, P3, P4, Expressen, and Expo had contacted him to problematize him and ettfolk, which he described as Sweden's largest digital petition of all time. He said that as a lone private citizen, he sought support from think tanks and alternative media, but received no interest. When the petition had around 100,000 signatures, he had initiated conversations with a think tank about organizing a demonstration. According to Leopold, it turned out that the think tank was primarily interested in the email addresses of the petition and wanted him to sell or share them as a condition for the demonstration. He also stated that he was offered jobs and assignments, but that he refused and distanced himself. Leopold wrote that the established right had never supported ettfolk and that Riks had also not paid attention to the project. At the same time, he described the popular support as overwhelming and urged for continued grassroots opinion formation and unity on issues that affect the majority. #demokrati #mediekritik #folkligtstöd (translated)

Daniel Schatz wrote that Hassan Abadir, the substitute for the Left Party in parliament, was 34 votes away from being elected. According to Schatz, Bulletin showed that Abadir was granted debt relief in August 2022 for debts of 827,534 kronor, after the Enforcement Authority assessed that he lacked payment ability. He stated that Abadir therefore did not need to pay anything and that the creditors received no compensation. Schatz also wrote that several dozen new cases had been registered with the Enforcement Authority since the fall of 2023, including for unpaid vehicle tax, congestion tax, and parking fines, and that several were still unpaid. He asked if the Left Party accepted that standard for its parliamentary candidates. https://t.co/In8OQAsnv5 #Vänsterpartiet #politik #skuldsanering (translated)
