  3. Sweden, national parliament election today:

    Europe Elects' polling average shows that the centre-left Social Democrats (S-S&D) could fall to their worst result ever since the introduction of universal suffrage in 1918 at 28.0%.

    S likely remains, however, Sweden’s largest party which the party has been for 109 years – no party in any country has won the plurality of the vote for so long as the Social Democrats in Sweden.

  8. Sweden’s extremely close election could see the far right enter government.

    Opinion polls show the centre-left opposition alliance ahead, with Magdalena ⁠Andersson of the Social Democrats the favourite to become prime minister again after four years in opposition, but her bloc’s lead has narrowed considerably in the final days of the campaign.

    Latest polls show a 0.3-point gap between the left and right blocs.

    We can change the state where many of us cannot even afford to travel where we want, to see places beyond where we most often sleep.

    Freedom of mobility is necessary for freedom of the soul.

  12. Swedish PISA scores: Sverigedemokraterna lie: pivic.blog/blog/swedish-pisa-s

    Jimmie Åkesson, the leader of extreme-right-wing political party Sverigedemokraterna, blames the lower PISA scores on 'mass immigration'.

    Science paints a different picture.

    'SD’s manifesto includes pledges to introduce “anti-Swedish sentiment in legislation on incitement against ethnic groups”, revoke permanent resident permits and further cut immigration.

    One of its slogans is a promise to “make Sweden Sweden again”.

    Despite recent changes – including the deportation of teenagers, lowering the age of criminal responsibility and sending 14-year-olds to adult prisons – many voters and politicians continued to see Sweden as a “champion of human rights and a champion of the rules-based world order where human rights is an important part”, Stauffer said.

    “But it is quite clear that the Sweden Democrats do not have that ambition. They don’t see Sweden as an important player on these issues on human rights. So there will be less focus on this and Sweden contributing to developing the judicial framework around human rights.”

    He added: “It’s a fair guess that the negative trend will continue with SD in government, the view from abroad of Sweden will continue to deteriorate, less and less will be seen as a champion of human rights, but as any other country maybe. For some time Sweden has been seen as the exception.”

    In an attempt to win back voters, Andersson’s Social Democrats have also moved to the right on crime, immigration and integration, meaning that a win for the left was unlikely to mean a reform of current hardline policies, said Stauffer.

    “With a Social Democrats-led government, many of the things we see as problematic are not going to be rolled back. But maybe negative development will not continue in the same way,” he said.

    With polls so tight and record early voting expected, the performance of smaller parties could prove critical.'
