Conservative January Ericsson had raised the issue of the government’s actions surrounding the EFSI, European Foundation for strategic investments. He argued that the government’s flawed policies risked cost Swedish taxpayers a lot of money. Ericsson was supported by comrade Fredrik Schulte in the pulpit, also accused the government of lacking control in question and that now do not act.

“Slipping on the truth”

But when Schulte was done had Magdalena Andersson ilsknat to – a lot.

When it was her turn to board the pulpit, she went instead to President podium and Tobias Billström, who is now the first Vice-President and former were moderately Minister.

There questioned her why Billström had not acted against his party colleague who she thought had slipped in the truth.

РThere can not be a point of order, as demonstrated in speaking chair, it may finance minister in that case take each Board member, I perceived nothing that violates the rules of the House, responded Billstr̦m.

And Andersson continued:

– Good, you may slide on the truth what seems like forever, according to the moderate President.

“Kafta not with the Bureau”

But then Mr Billström enough and selected:

Magdalena Andersson defended himself by saying that she walked over to the bureau for help. And continued:
