The Big Bad Swedish Politics & News Thread

KD, the Liberals and the Greens would all fail to make the parliamentary threshold if that poll was replicated in an election, no?

4% threshold, so yes. But wouldn't this lead to Moderate or Social Democrat voters strategically voting for the smaller parties so that their bloc will keep a majority in the parliament (if the centre-right bloc still exists in 2018 lol)?

What was the December Agreement?

It was an agreement where the centre-right pledged to allow left-wing budgets if they had a plurality, in exchange for the left doing the same after next election. PLus some other stuff, but that was the big one.

I honestly think Odenberg would be the right choice but they won't make it. It's a little bizarre, because a lot of M-people are acting as if AKB was the problem when the problem is very clearly one of policy. And yet there is no discussion on policy.

What are the main problems with M policy then? Being open towards working with the Sweden Democrats or are there other problems as well?
