Ida Gabrielsson criticized the editorial page of Dagens Nyheter, stating that it often exhibited the same contempt for people that it accused its opponents of. She argued that DN portrayed itself as a mediator of decent truth and responded to people who disagreed with condescension. According to Gabrielsson, the newspaper's view of decency lacked class and equality. She also criticized the Center Party (C) for not wanting to discuss substantive issues or collaborate within the majority that had reached an agreement in the parliament. She wrote that C did not want to participate in joint preliminary meetings before the committees and that C had not answered affirmatively to the question of whether the Left Party (V) was included in the same government support. Gabrielsson called it common sense for V to want to know which parties would govern together before a government agreement was negotiated. She questioned how this could be interpreted as S coddling V. Gabrielsson wrote that DN's view of decency did not seem to encompass issues such as unemployment benefits, health insurance, working conditions, and funding for welfare. She also highlighted the working conditions in the gig economy, asking whether it was decent not to prioritize that nursing assistants could live off their pensions. She wondered if it was competent for the government to privatize the employment service, which she believed had opened the door to crime while job seekers were left without help. She asked whether a society could be built together without understanding how people were affected, for example, by the risk of being denied sickness benefits after decades of work. Gabrielsson argued that understanding was not the same as agreeing, and that it was necessary to effect change. She warned that voters might lose faith that their vote made a difference, and wrote that political opponents should try to win support for their direction rather than attempting to impose their will by condescension or circumventing compromises. #politik #samhälle #jämlikhet (translated)

Mats Larsson described a hypothetical scenario where Kristersson received 173 yes votes in a prime minister vote. He wrote that Muhammad Ali was lying on the couch, that two people in the "opposition" were sick, and that Nooshi accidentally pressed the wrong button and voted yes. https://t.co/XARfBGwceA #Sverige #politik #omröstning (translated)

Daniel Schatz asked why the Social Democrats, along with their intended coalition partners V and MP, voted against the condemnations of Islamism and the Muslim Brotherhood in the EU Parliament, when Magdalena Andersson, according to him, stated her desire to combat extremism. https://t.co/8fDTkp0V2D #Politik #Extremism #Islamism (translated)

Ebba Busch wrote that the parliamentary vote showed that Magdalena Andersson lacked support in the chamber to become prime minister. She stated that the Christian Democrats would vote yes to a government builder whose parliamentary support the party was part of. Busch believed that Sweden was best served by a government that could continue to manage the successes of the blue-yellow government and drive a policy for growth, security, and stronger welfare. She also wrote that the party was ready to take responsibility and continue to build a Sweden where families could grow, businesses could create jobs, and people could feel hopeful about the future. #Sverige #politik #regering (translated)

The Center Party votes against Magdalena Andersson as Prime Minister in the Riksdag, despite the fact that she is the most likely candidate, which both the Left Party and the Green Party have also announced they will do. #Riksdagsvalet2026 #Centerpartiet #MagdalenaAndersson (translated)

The writer stated that a prime minister vote would be held at 12 o'clock in the Swedish Parliament. They expressed that they would vote no to a "dark red" prime minister and a government that they thought would be very harmful to Sweden and the Swedish people. https://t.co/dqEZrdftsl #Sverige #politk #riksdag #SE (translated)

Ledarsidorna.se wrote that when Sweden joined the EU in 1995, the country had three recently independent neighboring countries on the other side of the Baltic Sea, but that the social democratic government instead focused on Islam in Europe and the Mediterranean region. According to the site, a Swedish-funded conference the following year recommended that the dialogue between Europe and the Muslim world should have a secretariat in Sweden. The site linked this to the fact that all five Swedish social democrats in the European Parliament, according to the post, voted against a strategy against Islamist entryism 30 years later. It also claimed that the background made Margot Wallström's and Morgan Johansson's attitudes toward Israel understandable and described it as hate. Ledarsidorna.se announced that an article on the subject would be published the next morning around 6:00 AM. #svpol #EU #Sverige #politik (translated)

Mats Yxhäll wrote that according to him there was jubilation at SVT and speculated that perhaps there was also cake served and a speech given about having succeeded in lifting the friends in the MP. He claimed that the significantly larger increase of the Moderates was not mentioned in the headline. Yxhäll called MP a small extremist party and questioned why anyone would vote for the party and want harm for Sweden. #politiken #valresultat #Sverige (translated)

Ida Gabrielsson wrote that the Left Party, unlike most other parties on the red-green side, had not campaigned primarily with the message of saying no to the Sweden Democrats (SD). According to her, the party had not repeatedly talked about an SD government, presented proposals for twelve SD ministers whom she described as more or less uncouth, or warned that Jimmie Åkesson could become prime minister. She wrote that the Left Party also believed that SD was wrong, but that voters needed to know what policies they were voting for. Gabrielsson thought that the negative campaigns and the political representatives' approach to each other had made it confusing to distinguish between SD and the other Tidö parties. She emphasized that the rhetoric had come from, among others, Ebba Busch, Simona Mohamsson, and moderate ministers, and that the politics had been presented jointly. According to Gabrielsson, the Left Party had therefore primarily focused on the policies it wanted to change. A campaign solely against SD risked, she wrote, appearing to target a group of people and giving someone the opportunity to adopt a victim role. She also believed it was contradictory to claim to be able to collaborate with everyone except SD, or preferably with the Tidö parties without SD, while campaigning on a different policy. Gabrielsson wrote that the Left Party had campaigned on its own policies and with Magdalena Andersson as a candidate for prime minister, well anchored in the red-green side. Therefore, according to her, the Left Party should not have to settle for having achieved a no to SD. #politik #Val2024 #rödgröna (translated)

Daniel Schatz wrote that the European Parliament wanted to label the Muslim Brotherhood as a terrorist organization and that the Left Party, Social Democrats, and Green Party voted against it. He asked why the parties did not take a stance against the movement, which according to him had inspired and nurtured extremism worldwide. https://t.co/jGNTwYR9QE #EU #terrorism #extremism (translated)

Ida Gabrielsson questioned after a discussion with Martin Ådahl whether there was any other party that the Center Party considered sufficiently acceptable. She wrote that C had tolerated the Social Democrats and the Green Party because they had previously agreed to govern with bourgeois economic policy so that C would not collaborate with the Sweden Democrats. At the same time, she argued, C had criticized S for its migration policy and rejected the Left Party despite V agreeing with C on the issue. Gabrielsson contrasted this with what she described as a contradiction in the Center Party's rhetoric on decency. She pointed to ministers from the Moderates whom she considered increasingly Trump-like and accused them of going after journalists and conducting negative campaigns, as well as statements from the KD leader, the right's talk of voters as voting cattle, and comments from Member of Parliament Lars Beckman (M) and Alice Teodorescu (KD), whom she described as conspiracy theorists. She wrote that Ådahl and C seemed to believe that the former alliance parties did not really support their current policy, but had been kidnapped by SD and deep down wanted to return to the era of Fredrik Reinfeldt. Gabrielsson argued that Ådahl and Magdalena Andersson seemed to think that the parties would return to the center when the Tidö cooperation ended. She called the view condescending and emphasized that the changes could also have been made deliberately and voluntarily. During the election campaign, Gabrielsson stated, she had spoken with a leading center-right politician from Stockholm about more people voting for SD in the area where she grew up. She recounted that she had highlighted material and social reasons for dissatisfaction and mentioned a neighbor who worked almost around the clock on his farm and cleared snow in half of Norrland during the winters. According to Gabrielsson, the center-right politician had responded that a difficult life did not excuse a vote for SD, as others with difficult lives did not vote for the party. Gabrielsson also relayed that her father, who grew up in Ockelbo, used to refer to C and the farmers as "the right aristocracy." On Tuesday, he had told her that he had closed the door on a DN Kultur journalist who wanted to discuss the family's background and life in the countryside and in the industrial town of Åmotsbruk. Her father had also criticized C as the worst party of the day and said he preferred the party when it was at least a farmers' party. Gabrielsson wrote that she had corrected him, but at the same time agreed that a party with 7 percent could be perceived as self-satisfied if it assumed that others would follow its line. #Centerpartiet #Sverige #politik (translated)

Susanna Silfverskiöld wrote, referring to a clip from SVT from November 2025, that SVT's mapping showed that the Centre Party voted more similarly to the Sweden Democrats than to the Social Democrats in the parliament. She called it exciting if policy issues were to decide. https://t.co/kxnr6VQfkx #politik #Sverige #riksdagen (translated)

The writer wondered why the right was upset that the imams in Järva had urged everyone to vote. The post stated that Frida Sundkvist had gone to Rinkeby to clarify the debate about election fraud and asked if anyone had actually cheated, or if the right did not want the poor, immigrants, and Muslims to vote. https://t.co/pULJjI77OQ #valfusk #röstning #Järva #SE (translated)

Today, SvD writes that Borlänge municipality does not see any signs of electoral fraud. "Our perception of the voting is that it has been a good early voting process without major incidents," says Fredrik Holm, deputy municipal director. At the same time, the newspaper Bulletin has gone through the daily reports from the vote receivers that present a completely different picture of the patriarchy that controls how women vote. The municipality has not reported this further and has no obligation to do so. Perhaps the municipality is technically doing the right thing. But can you understand that many Swedes are shaking their heads? This does not create a good impression. Something must be done. Sweeping this under the rug will lead to decreased trust in the electoral system and democracy. #valfusk #demokrati #Borlänge (translated)

Yes, the police have been in with drug dogs at my daughter's school. It ended with a Somali in her class being taken away. My daughter is in 7th grade. It has always been.. No, it has NOT.

This would never have happened if Hultqvist had continued as defense minister. Magdalena Andersson's leadership does not include promotion based on competence. If that had been the case, Hultqvist, Ygeman, Strandhäll, etc. would not have become prominent. It makes a big difference what you vote for. #val2024 (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. #politik #samhälle #val (translated)

Tänk att ett kommunistparti marinerat i antisemitism och terrorvurm röstar för en borgerlig talman – medan ett självutnämnt liberalt borgerligt parti röstar emot. Vad har talmansvalet med SD att göra? Ingenting. De C-väljare som trodde att de röstade på ett borgerligt parti har all anledning att känna sig grundligt blåsta. #politik #svenskpolitik #kommunism
