Åkesson (SD): Tvångsintegration blir stora valfrågan

Jimmie Åkesson, the early parties have made big changes in the criminal policy and migration policy. What is the next step for the Sweden Democrats? Now I think that the integration challenge that the Social Democrats offer, where they now with social experiments will be forced to mix the population and pass over problems that they themselves have created on ordinary, honest citizens. I think that will be the big battle in the future. They will not get away with it in the election movement. They will need to become even more concrete. And we are not going to accept the type of forced integration that they want. So for me that became the big election issue. We are one of the most segregated countries in Europe. How do you deal with that? By making demands on people who have come here from other countries to adapt, get their own supplies, contribute to society, become Swedes, raise their children to good Swedish citizens. And if you are not prepared to do that, then there is room for migration. You can get contribution to that. You can get help from authorities to return to the country where you may obviously thrive better. We are in a very long-term low-income country. Elisabeth Svantesson compares it with the pandemic. It is the households that are dragging this down. You have talked about reducing food waste. What do you want to do for the households? Among other things, reducing food waste is something that will be good because it benefits everyone. The shopkeepers benefit from it reasonably. The households benefit from it. The single mother of two benefits from it. I think it is a very good financial solution. It costs some money, of course, but it is self-financing in the long run. Then there are a lot of other things to do. People need to get more money from their own salary. Continue to drive a growth-oriented tax policy. These are important things. Electricity tax is something you should look at. You can do something about that. It is also something that affects all households reasonably. Child benefit, for example, which other parties talk a lot about, it hits wrong. Even I, who earns a lot of money, would get increased child benefit. It is not good policy. I think it is a bit fanciful. What tax changes do you want to see? You can make many different tax changes. We are now in the middle of the budget negotiations and I think I should not show the cards too much in this situation. Of course, income taxes for ordinary people with ordinary incomes should be lowered. I think you can look at electricity tax, food stamps. Company tax is not uninteresting in any way. Employment benefits in general are an expensive reform, but it is something that probably has an effect on the company's ability to employ, for example. So there is a lot to do. You said during the speech that the Sweden Democrats, after the next election, either sit in the government or in the opposition. What does that mean? It means exactly that. I have repeated that in every speech I have given since the election. The time agreement is very good. It has given us a great influence on important issues. But it is a temporary solution. After the next election, we will go into government. If we do not get into government, we will go into opposition.
