STOCKHOLM (Dagbladet): On Friday evening, Sweden’s party leaders will meet for the “Last Debate”, i.e. the final party leader debate before Sunday’s election.
This is likely to be a thriller of choice between blocks on the right and left side. But who might end up in government in various wings is also unclear.
She is the problem
When asked by Dagbladet whether it was appropriate to let Jimmie Kesson’s Swedish Democrats enter the government, Moderatna leader Ulf Kristersson was clear:
– No, my message has been fixed. I’ve said a hundred times what happened.
Want to be in government
Kesson, for his part, isn’t so sure he should be kept away from the government building, if there’s a win for rights.
– Would you demand a place in government if SD got bigger than Moderate, as some polls show?
– I think the voters should have their vote on Sunday. Then we have clear parliamentary preconditions in front of us and then we can discuss the government, Kesson answered the press that was present before the debate.
– But do you feel that way?
– I really want to, of course.
Towards the fall election: – Very serious
Barking together
Two days before the election show average of the polls the left leads the election with at least three mandates.
Prime Minister Magdalena Andersson’s Social Democrats are the largest party with 28.8 percent. Then followed by the Swedish Democrats with 21.3 percent.
During the final party leader debate of the evening, many hot topics were discussed. Climate challenges, electricity prices, nuclear power, Swedish schools, crises in the health care system and gang crime are some of them.
Saturday was the last prime ministerial duel between Magdalena Andersson (S) and Ulf Kristersson (L).
