He argued that the only opportunity for the Social Democrats, as in 2018, was a minority government tolerated by the Center Party, either with the Social Democrats alone or together with the Green Party and/or the Left Party. According to Rosencrantz, such a government would lack a majority for its economic policy, find it difficult to implement major reforms, and risk recurring government crises during the mandate period. He wrote that Magdalena Andersson faced this option or an early election, describing both outcomes as a failure and as the opposite of what the Social Democrats had promised voters. He also suggested that the development could be the beginning of the end for the Social Democrats' unique position as the governing party in Swedish politics. #svpol #politik #regering (translated)
