Analysis. Stefan Löfven looks to form one of Sweden’s weakest governments, with only 38 percent of the vote behind. The price to be able to collaborate with bourgeois parties in the future was to exclude from the Left government formation.

H he meeting was to elect will hang over Stefan Löfven as a sword of Damocles. In Greek anecdote hangs a sharp sword cut in a single hair from a ponytail above the throne. In the Swedish Parliament, there are many who can cut it with straw.
The alliance would be able to cut the straw, but lack the Prime Minister and Finance Minister to challenge Stefan Löfven and have their own wounds to heal first.
Ad:
Two of Fredrik Reinfeldt’s representatives, Lundgren and Ulf Adelsohn, criticized the outgoing prime minister to have thrown in the towel too quickly. There are those of the bourgeoisie who hope Stefan Löfven fail and that the alliance will be able to get back together with MP. It has Fredrik Reinfeldt now hampered.
Jimmie Åkesson (SD) may also try to get the sword to fall. He threatened already going to vote for the Alliance’s budget if the SD’s own proposal fall, a move that could trigger a government crisis.
And so left leader Jonas Sjöstedt, who yesterday went into opposition.
Stefan Löfven choose to proceed with his original plan and try to form a government with only the Green Party. The government will have a weaker support in parliament than the alliance parties have. The default setting for a parliamentary decision will then be to the alliance’s proposal wins.
Stefan Löfven therefore need at least Left Party’s support to get his budget through parliament. It knows Jonas Sjöstedt and have a good bargaining position. But Stefan Löfven may find it difficult to pay the Sjöstedt want.
Left leader requires an agreement to ban the gains in welfare. But who will support such a proposal in parliament? It seems unlikely that the alliance would like to save Jonas Sjöstedt. However, the FP and M an old settlement with S and MP in the context of the so-called friskolekommittén, but it does not go nearly as far as the Left wants.
Löfvens Options had been pick up the Left in government. Fredrik Reinfeldt realized that it is better to have potential critics inside the team than outside, then he took out Carl Bildt and Ulf Kristersson in their government. Fredrik Reinfeldt had earlier had conflicts with both.
But if Stefan Löfven would like to have control on Jonas Sjöstedt by sewing him into a part of the Cabinet Office, it would have acted as a red rag to the bourgeois parties The Social Democrats want and need to work with in parliament.
It is unlikely that the Liberal Party or the Centre Party in this state would like to form a government or make great bargains with Stefan Löfven. But eventually he will need to approach them if he is to implement some of the changes he promised his constituents and not just administer it permanent.
The selectors said on Sunday, and both his voice and S-leaders can have a taste on the expression of thought by violating pallor. Stefan Löfven smiled from Aftonbladet first page behind a squirting bottle of champagne, but actually became the overall success of the S and MP zero, in terms of the mandate. S won a mandate, MP lost one, according to the election authority to preliminary figures.
The voters rewarded as each change, the Sweden Democrats advanced strongly and also Feminist Initiative, although Gudrun Schyman’s party did not pass parliament latch.
Stefan Löfven has not been given a strong mandate to form a government, but it is the government parties that received a failing grade. Löfven remains in the same position.
It will be interesting to hear how the party leaders interpret voters’ signal in this.
Green Party, Ra and The Conservatives have all three , at different times, chosen to make the Sweden Democrats to the main opponents and picking up the immigration policy on the agenda. There are political science research that shows that when immigration policy is discussed much growing xenophobic parties.
There is a large group in Sweden – about 40 percent, according to Professor Sören Holmberg – who believe that Sweden should accept fewer refugees. It is far more than the SD’s voters.
When Prime Minister Fredrik Reinfeldt linked refugee immigration that there was money to promise new reforms, he confirmed also Sweden Democrats thesis that it is reasonable to speak of refugees in terms of costs .
The focus on Jimmie Åkesson in combination with the Social Democrats and the Moderates were crowded in the middle and copied each other’s politics explains much of the election results. Those who got the role of opposition became in many voters’ eyes of the Sweden Democrats, and the left became the Feminist Initiative.
The price paid Stefan Löfven now.
