Socialdemokraterna presenterade en ny laguppställning inför valet 2026 med flera namnbyten och nya roller. Epoch Times opinionschef Lotta Gröning menar att förändringarna är nödvändiga men försenade, och lyfter särskilt fram Lawen Redar som en skicklig politiker. Hon ser också satsningen på landsbygden som en reaktion på Sverigedemokraternas framgångar.
The Social Democrats have made quite significant changes ahead of the election
There are many new people in positions they haven't had before and old profiles that are now disappearing
How do you see what the Social Democrats are doing
I think it's great I have to say
They should have done this a long time ago
I think it's too small of a renovation for what they're doing
I think it's great that they highlight
Laven Redar She is a very skilled politician
Smart from Magdalena Andersson to let her travel around the country and so on
It's a bit nice that he disappears into Ygeman
I think he's upset because I did a bad job so now he's becoming the vice chairman of a committee instead
So that should be good
It surprises me that they are presenting Anna-Karin Säterberg as something new
I don't think it's new at all She was the minister of rural affairs in Andersson's previous government
She has also been a spokesperson for the countryside
I see this as a direct link to why the Sweden Democrats are so large
The center-right parties won the election with a narrow margin aided by rural votes
Oh but the Social Democrats are suddenly after years of neglect not even caring about the countryside at all
Lifter from the countryside
It's a sign that SD is growing and that SD is present with those questions
What must also be noted is that SD actually won big in the countryside
Today the municipalities say they don't have people there
They have also not accomplished much of what they promise
They have managed to achieve lower gasoline prices in principle
Also helping to stop wind power which many in the countryside are affected by
I don't trust the Social Democrats' promises
Because they have centralized everything that can be centralized
But when they say they are focusing on areas outside the customs then it's abou
Exploitation green industries LKAB moving communities and so on
People don't care too much about the people who live there
Laven Redar enters as the migration policy spokesperson
It's the first pure migration policy spokesperson
that the Social Democrats have had in 20 years I think
He also travels around the countryside as you said
Do you think the parties can show more involvement in the countryside
In this election campaign
She will travel around the whole country
I think she will be more in the cities than in the countryside
If one is to be honest in Laven Redar
From Säteberg I will travel around the countryside
I don't know when it comes to policy towards the
countryside I think the rural population is quite skeptical
For they have heard year after year after year what
they have promised and nothing
happens Nothing changes
They are closing hospitals they are withdrawing train lines
When it comes to power the power game has now begun in
earnest between the different sides in Swedish politics
In the countryside they have almost no power at all
They are too small to care about them
So I don't actually trust the Social Democrats' rural policy
I don't particularly trust the other side's
rural policy or the government's rural policy
There is no fighting over the middle class in the cities
The only positive thing I can say is
It is that the center even though I don't fully trust them
either has at least promised to keep the municipal veto
It is a valuable move Does it
hang in the air the municipal
veto It does All parties are after the municipal veto
They want to reduce the power of the municipalities over the green industries
They want to bulldoze them
They will also not contribute to the municipalities affected by
They get nothing back
Look at Kiruna one of the municipalities with
the absolute biggest economic problems
LKAB delivers billions to the state
They get nothing back just jobs
Jobs then they should be prepared to lose their homes at low
prices They are completely in
the hands of the state and LKAB
They have no power at all
What can the Center Party do if they are the only advocates
To maintain the municipal veto
The only thing they can do is if they become probably as they can become
To stay and I think Center will stay
it's that they can become the one that requires the tongue on the scale
Should they go in and support a government
Can they demand what we do not accept
That is you removing the municipal veto
It was similar when the Social Democrats tried to remove the municipal veto
Both when it comes to wind power and refugee policy
Then the Center party said no It was the only party that said no
I trust the Center They have consistently supported
the municipal veto and opposed its removal
If there is a left-wing government after the next election
how much influence can the Center have on these issues
They can have it for the Social Democrats are completely dependent on the Center
Can I imagine that they will be
They will also not get their own majority in the next election
You have two talents that depend on small parties and large parties
It is clear that they can play a key role in the municipal veto
It's the only thing I see
Back to the Social Democrats
Many elections have had migration as the major issue
Some argue that integration will be the next big issue in the election
What does it mean for the Social Democrats that the tide is turning
But are these questions raised in this way
These parties are very skilled at talking about integration
Even though she is very careful so that no one will move
The middle class to these vulnerable areas
There they have some problems
But she is very good at talking about it
I think she can be of great use
Social Democrats' integration
policy just like the integration policy
of the bourgeois parties has been disastrous
That's what's wrong in this country
There's a lot of other things that haven't worked either
They have absolutely not worked
