Top politician Viktoria Tryggvadottir Rolka (S) is stepping down from her position as municipal councilor in Gothenburg after nearly fifteen years due to threats and a changed political climate that she no longer wants to accept. (translated)

Toppolitikern Viktoria Tryggvadottir Rolka (S) lämnar – efter hot och hat

This is what our life will be like... Surveillance, wiretapping, show trials. Etc. Communism has returned! (translated)

If anyone is wondering about Vindeln's sudden desire to regulate women's clothing: This is the WHOLE explanation. The municipal councilor feels threatened by a female teacher who has engaged against his mismanagement of the municipality and has become popular because of it. Yes, she looks good and is quite eloquent. Everyone understands that the councilor feels threatened and pressured. It's just ridiculous to pretend that he suddenly came up with the idea to regulate how well women's breasts are visible. That is not the case. It's his cope because he is threatened by organized younger women. It's ridiculous that the media can't put two and two together. The councilor has received incomprehensibly much criticism from women in the last 2-3 years. (translated)

The Left Party did not remove communism from its name and party program in 1990 because they stopped being communists, nor because they wanted to. They removed the designation because the iron curtain fell and millions of people could suddenly openly explain how communism actually worked in practice. The party naturally knew this already, but the voters could be frightened by famine, persecution, and state control. When the Soviet Union also fell in 1991, it was the last nail in the coffin for the old hypocrites to express themselves openly as communists. Only a few of them have since flaunted their communist "proud" history, and one of them today is Ida Gabrielsson, the vice-chairperson of the party. Ida was only 8 years old when the wall fell and 9 when the Left Party changed its name, but at some point, she should have opened a history book, the same demand I place on anyone entering a party. All parties have had ridiculous historical representatives and connections, but the Left is the only party that for 74 years has driven the party in a genocide-friendly direction before they at least got scolded by the marketing department that it was time to clean up a bit. Their obvious susceptibility and naivety have surely had significant importance for clans that can step in and take over positions. What do you think? (translated)

New electoral scandal: Several Somali associations in Borlänge claim to be politically independent. At the same time, they openly campaign for Social Democratic politicians. S-topper Maslah Omar has connections to several of the associations. As chair of the culture and leisure committee, he has also participated in decisions regarding millions of municipal kronor to associations where he has been personally involved. The connections go straight into this year's election campaign. An association that previously received municipal grants while Omar was a decision-maker has published a campaign video featuring him and spread calls to vote the government out. This must be investigated promptly. When association grants, political networks, and election campaigns merge, there is an obvious risk of undue influence and corruption. If the rule of law does not act, trust in democracy will be eroded. (translated)

Linköping Municipality, in collaboration with Linköping University, has launched KUNO, Sweden's first student department within municipal health and care, where students from various care programs work in teams to practically apply their knowledge under the guidance of experienced staff.

Linköping först med studentavdelning i kommunal vård och omsorg

A municipality sponsored a hockey team in another city with almost 170,000 kronor. The arrangement included, among other things, box seats and three-course dinners. “The chairman of the municipal council's son played on the team,” says the Waste Agency's Philip Syrén. (translated)

There is no one like @NadjaIsaksen in the Danish Parliament. The way she gets the whole choir going from the soft right wing all the way to the communists, both in due time and at inappropriate moments, is simply fantastic. She ends up making the conditions in the expulsion centers so unbearable that all the residents voluntarily go home😂 And that is just one of many areas where she excels completely and utterly. The success of a politician on the national patriotic right wing should be measured by the amount of negative press in the red media, and no one does it better than Nadja (shoutout to @LBMathiesen and @AllanFeldt_ too). That definitely deserves a follow if you aren't already doing so. (translated)

AfD ban? Regardless of the (in my view low) chances of success of a petition to the Federal Constitutional Court, important questions are completely ignored by the proponents: (1) A ban procedure would take at least 3 years: do we really want to talk only about the AfD for so long? (2) How should a ban petition be communicated to the population, who supports the AfD party by up to 30 percent and in some states even more, without finally tearing the country apart politically? That would have to be "explained" to the people. (3) The next federal election in 2029 would take place before a decision by the Federal Constitutional Court. One cannot seriously assume that the Federal Constitutional Court would exclude the AfD from the federal election by interim order before a decision on the ban petition. So how should a federal election go ahead during an ongoing ban procedure? (4) How do you communicate to foreign countries that precisely in Germany the largest opposition party is to be banned? All these questions are not being discussed. Because there are no answers. Not even Hape Kerkeling. (translated)

A strong majority of those who contribute to society today vote for the right-wing parties. They are the ones who go to their jobs and run businesses, etc. They pay the taxes and give more than they receive, thus holding society together. Meanwhile, those who consume tax money vote for the left, like communication professionals, HR, strategists, the aid industrial complex, the so-called civil society that generates about 30-40 billion every year in tax funds, administrators within the public sector, meaningless political academics, media people, culture folks who live on taxes, and recipients of benefits.

Hello everyone ❤️ A person who calls himself "The Party of Compassion" has gone bananas and is editing our films, which he then uploads to Facebook, making it look like we are collaborating with him. He changes our films with text boxes and texts that we absolutely do not support. We have worked hard to bring the debate about abused children to the agenda; we are working to publish facts, not his hate messages and violence. The phone has been busy today with people wondering. We have absolutely no connection with Azad or the Party of Compassion, which has been reported to the police and will be charged with copyright infringement if the material is not taken down immediately. We have communicated with him via email, but he claims to be above copyright law, calls us anti-Semitic hate messages, and refuses to take it down. (translated)

The EU plans to introduce a Europe-wide crisis-resistant communication technology system for police and emergency services to improve cross-border communication and minimize security risks in disasters. (translated)

EU will krisenfeste Kommunikation für Europas Rettungsdienste

The investigation suggests that the state should take over more airports in the country and guarantee that communication and security work for the entire country. Airports such as Arvidsjaur, Gällivare, Kalmar. I completely agree. The opportunity to fly needs to increase in the future. It is good for the whole. (translated)

The EU Commission has proposed a new crisis communication system to improve the communication capabilities of emergency services in crisis situations and to ensure cross-border interoperability. (translated)

The financial difficulties of the German municipalities are leading to drastic increases in fees and taxes to fill the empty coffers, which will heavily burden millions of citizens. (translated)

Kommunen in der Kassen-Krise - Kita, Müll, Parken: So sollen Sie die leeren Kassen füllen

Today's (so far) most important article is written by Sven Otto Littorin. He argues that Sweden has been a highly trusting society and that the electoral system is built for that. I, who can be a bit less diplomatic at times in public discourse, would say that our society and our democracy are in decline. Luckily, the decline is happening from a relatively high altitude. From the article: "The election administration has reported over 4,000 incidents to the Electoral Authority this year, compared to 489 in 2022. Part of the increase is due to the fact that reporting is now mandatory, but behind the numbers, there is a pattern that cannot be dismissed: Up until 4 PM on election day, over 300 incidents in the category of unlawful influence had been reported, of which around 90 involved group voting. The police have received 58 reports of improper conduct during voting. The National Anti-Corruption Unit is investigating suspected electoral fraud in Dalarna with pre-marked ballots, driven voters, and possible payments. In Stockholm, at least four vote collectors with ties to gang crime have received ballots, and no law prevents this. In four municipalities, nearly 600 votes have been lost or rejected. The Election Review Board has received nearly 12,000 appeals. The previous record from 2018 was 723." Regardless of everything else one might say about this, I agree with the author of the article on the need for "a parliamentary electoral integrity commission to be appointed immediately, with the task of presenting legislative proposals in time for the 2030 election." You can read about a number of proposals in the article. I don't know myself if I would support all of them, but it is a starting point. Personally, I can also add that it is a major problem that the left is currently trying to meet all discussions about shortcomings in the election with a dismissive attitude and attempts to discredit those who raise criticism or constructive proposals. The way in which debaters and the media have treated Peter Wennblad after his very concerning article about irregularities in Järva is in itself a sign of weaknesses in democracy. It tends to become a form of circular reasoning. If someone writes and talks about what sources report from Järva, Borlänge, or Rosengård, the criticism and reporting are labeled as a threat to democracy because questioning whether the election was conducted well is itself seen as a threat to democracy, which has the decidedly undemocratic consequence that the election and democracy cannot be discussed without democracy being threatened. Somehow, we must get over this. And move forward. Because I believe it is correct that our electoral system is not made for the society that Sweden has become. (translated)

For C, there are two options: parliamentary dependence on V or SD. There is no third way, no matter how much ETR dreams of unicorns and rainbows. What makes a former communist party, steeped in antisemitism, terror romanticism, dictatorship support, and extremism, more acceptable than SD? That is the question that C's performative apostles of goodness do everything to avoid answering. (translated)

In the midst of a tragic situation for Berlin, there is also something to laugh about👇😄 It is thus very likely that Berlin will soon have a communist Antifa supporter as mayor, which is very tragic. And as part of the communists' policy, they will defund the police and replace them with social workers. This has led the police to say that the upcoming communist mayor cannot have police protection! LOL! Which has made the communists very upset because, as it always is with them, there must be "rules for thee, not for me." Fantastic statement from the police👌😂 (translated)
