The Big Bad Swedish Politics & News Thread

There were actually quite a lot of murmurs about Löfven stepping down before the 2022 election before the pandemic. But I think most people presumed that because of the pandemic he would stay on.

Anyway, considering how short time there is to the party congress in September and that there is only a year left until the election, I can't see anyone else than Magdalena Andersson succeeding him.

PM vote scheduled for 9 in the morning, budget vote scheduled for 4 pm


Still no word from C about the agreement between V and S, so Andersson is likely calling Lööf's bluff

I'm not sure what news sources you're reading, but so far there is no deal between S and V and V held a press conference at 3 pm saying they're prepared to vote against Andersson if they don't reach a deal.

So pretty hard for C to have anything to say about a deal that doesn't exist yet.
