The leisure leader wrote that they, as a leisure leader, had observed that young people were drinking less, a development that many viewed as entirely positive. However, they were unsure if the change was solely positive and emphasized that alcohol could also be a part of adult social contexts, with parties, community, flirting, and rituals. They described the teenage years as a transition between childhood and adulthood, where trying boundaries and freeing oneself from parental influence could be involved. If young people socialized more, danced, fell in love, or found other ways to explore independence instead of drinking alcohol, they saw it as positive. But if the reduction in alcohol consumption reflected a more sedentary, digital, monitored, and cautious youth period, they expressed concern. They wrote that it was not the drinking they missed, but the rebellion. #ungdomar #alkohol #fritidsledare (translated)

Daniel Schatz described Gulan Avci's arrival and Jan Jönsson's departure as a boost for Stockholm. He referred to a DN article that described how Avci had furnished her office in the city hall with an Israeli flag, a poster reading "We can do it!" and boxing gloves. An unpacked moving box and wilted flowers reportedly indicated an intense election campaign. According to DN, Avci wanted the Liberals in Stockholm to continue tackling difficult issues over the next four years, including exclusion and honor culture. She also pointed out increased anti-Semitism as a problem. Avci accused the Palestinian movement of spreading anti-Semitism and harming democratic dialogue at recurring demonstrations, and claimed that the Social Democrats had not acted to stop the development. She stated that her criticism was not aimed at the right to demonstrate, but at anti-Semitic expressions and hatred within parts of the movement. #Stockholm #Liberalerna #Valrörelse (translated)
