Ida Gabrielsson wrote that the Center Party could not be trusted as long as the party kept the door open for cooperation with the Sweden Democrats. She described the arrangement as a way to force a government with the Left Party excluded and maximum right-wing politics, rather than as cooperation. According to Gabrielsson, the Left Party would not achieve either a ban on profits in welfare or a billionaire tax by standing on the outside. She argued that the Tidö Agreement could not be compared to the January Agreement that Magdalena Andersson was offered to govern on. The Sweden Democrats had, according to her, not been able to threaten to switch to Andersson, while Thand Ringqvist had shown a willingness to do the opposite. Gabrielsson wrote that the Center Party had previously chosen the red-green alternative because the party did not accept dependence on the Sweden Democrats, and that it would not stay if the politics became left-oriented. She hoped that Birgitta Ohlsson and other Center Party members were serious about values being the most important, and that the members would permanently close the door to the Sweden Democrats. Gabrielsson also warned that a change of prime minister candidate after the election and a yes to what Annie Lööf rejected in 2018 could lead to the Center Party, like the Liberals, going into the 2030 election with the ambition of governing with the Sweden Democrats or being out of Parliament. #svpol #politik #demokrati (translated)
