More details?

Basicly the new platform that the leadership presented took the party in a very Libretairian direction. The three most controversial new positions being:

1) Free-immigration, no regulations or restrictions on immigration at all.
2) No mandatory school, parents who don't want to send their children to school don't have to.
3) Making the federal income-tax flat.

There's a reference on TheLocal.se about supporting polygamy as well but no further details.

Is there no adult supervision in the decision-making process of the party?

So appealing to their Stockholm yuppie voters rather than their straw-chewing base? Weird.

It manages to make the Lib Dems or Irish Labour look like political geniuses in comparison. Even the FDP might seem competent.
