Swedish right coalition claims narrow victory in national elections

[Winston]

Gangerolf, could you kindly resize the picture you posted, it makes the thread hard to navigate.

Yes, resize = shrink, not enlarge..

[Gangerolf]

Pekka, yes I meant øvriga. I think "the fascists" as Zoid calls them is the largest of those. Like 2% or sometinhg

[Gangerolf]

oh ok

but that wouldn't do justice to Perssons big friendly smile

[Winston]

He looks like he just told a dirty joke, or set up a new Ministry for the Advancement of Flatulence.

[Pekka]

Well, maybe the pirate party will pass the votes of fascists next time? Let's hope so

[Zoid]

Gangerolf, around 2% AFAIK.

Pekka, nope. They weren´t listed separately. the Feminist Initiative (led by former Left Party leader Gudrun Schyman) got 1%, the EU-sceptic Junilist got 0.5%, the pensioners party got 1%, the party for healthcare got 0.5% (I think). So maybe 0.5% for the Pirate Party... But we´ll know for sure on wendesday when the list all the votes.

Liar.

Their gain is however symptomatic of certain unaddressed issues in your society, not least protruding in Southern Sweden. I guess you've reaped what you sowed.

Just what the SD says.

Are you one to disagree?

Do you think their dramatic gain is caused by something else?

ohh the drama of the socialists and leftist movements.. In fact, rarely does the leftist movement really threaten others and fear everything and exaggarate. It's the SDP vote that always does that. Brainwashed little lapdogs of satan's cheapest whore.

However, not saying you don't have some fascists in city councils. So when is the new holocaust goign to happen, or is ot more likely that the socialists will **** up the economy altogether with not doing anything to unemployment and ultiamtely hurting the poor more than anyone, including wannabe nazis?

I´m no Social Democrat, haven´t been for almost 15 years... So the question for me isn´t either fascist dictatorship or Social Democratic ditto.

But if the right-centre alliance can get more jobs out there I´m for it. Problem is that they´ll probably do this by slashing the welfare system to pay for lowering the corporate tax and other costs for companys. OTOH this is the first time the right-centre alliance has taken over during a boom in the economy. Previous times have been during recessions (1976-82, 1991-94). So it will be very interesting to hear how they will explain their failure if the **** it up for a third time...

[Flip McWho]

Easy.

The seeds of this recession was planted when the Social Democrat government was in power and if you vote for us for another term or two we'll make sure we fix it quick smart.

[Saras]

it was technically correct during the last time they were in power though

People are stupid and xenophobic. They can´t separate inner factors from outer factors (immigrants steal because it´s in their nature compared to stealing because they´re shunned by the swedish society for example) .

But I guess you´re right in a way. The Social Democrats have created this problem with their crap excuse for an immigration policy. The answer to this isn´t to throw them out though, but rather to find a way to integrate them into the swedish society. And the best way to do this is to give them work, not welfare.

Ett enda ord till, dansk, och vi dumpar Skåne på er. Förstått?

Congrats to our alcohol-deprived brothers on getting rid of that pathetic excuse for a leader, Persson.

Tack ska du ha. Det var inte ett decennium för tidigt. Och den här alkoholberövade svensken har rätt svårt att låtsas jobba idag, efter att ha festat hela natten.

Mods: I express my dismay at Danes presuming to have an opinion of their betters and rub my hands in glee over the fact that a shedload of welfare cases will probably have to stop posting at 'Poly and get a job now. Which can only be a victory for Sweden and 'Poly both.

Dom kan gott ta hela Skåne. Bara en massa rasister och socialbidragstagare...

Amazingly sane moment there, Zoid. I salute you!
