On Thursday, the S leader Stefan Löfven was commissioned by President to try to form a government. How he’ll get support in parliament for both the budget and other policies are, however, five days after the election is still unclear, however.
Löfven repeats again and once that he will form a “energetic government.” But the only thing we know for certain is that his future government will be anything but energetic.
Sweden Democrats’ success is deplorable. But there are advantages to a weak S-MP-government that must baste themselves forward in parliament. With such, it becomes harder for Löfven to unravel the alliance policy – such earned income tax credit and health insurance reform – who served Sweden well.
The Social Democrats have in recent days been adept at suit liability issue to Annie Loof and Jan Björklund. Of media to judge receives almost the impression that it is FP and C-leader who now must ensure that it can be controlled.
The responsibility, however, is of course mainly Löfvens. If he can steer his government through his full term, he needs to adjust policies to the mandate voters have given him – and it’s not a left side mandates.
if voters had been united with Löfven that the red-green must “fix” the Sweden who “is about to go broke” it would have been seen in the election results. But despite eight years of alliance governance sees the future governing parties S and MP even like to go back together.
The Center Party and the Liberal Party has thus no reason to act doormats to Stefan Löfven. However, they should support the S-proposals of convergence is. The Liberal Party should, for example, vote for a third month dad about the issue pops up.
The Social dreaming now to block the policy should be broken up and that the party will again be the undisputed government agent. But even if the party primarily acting in self-interest, there is good reason for partisan agreements also in some major issues.
Much that built Sweden has strongly implemented in collaboration across the block boundary, as tax reform, the new pension system and the clean-up of the public finances.
A new sensible reform of the tax system, for example, stepped-interest deduction and the abolishment of compulsory military tax should be on the agenda for the coming term. Although the school and the defense would benefit from a handshake across the block boundary.
Before it is a possibility, however Stefan Löfven show that he can leave the election campaign, inflated rhetoric left behind and engage in politics under a mandate from voters. It will not be painless, a betrayal debate awaits surely around the corner. On the other hand, social democracy right big habit of flashing left and turn right.
