The Sweden Democrats member committee has come up with its judgment on SDU peaks Gustav Kasselstrand and William Hahne.

They recommend expulsion.

On Monday summarizes the party the formal decision.

When SVT’s program, “party leader” continued today it was SD’s group leader Mattias Karlsson, who once again came on, Jimmie Åkesson. In recent weeks there has been an open battle in the party, the party leadership and Youth League SDU’s management.

In total, more than some 20 party members have been threatened by exclusion, including the SDU peaks Gustav Kasselstrand and William Hahne . They stand accused of a series of points. Meanwhile, they have accused the party leadership of authoritarianism.

Yesterday met the party member committee to come up with its judgment on the issue. The formal decision is made, however, of the party on 27 April. During the interview with Karlsson on SVT today announced Mattias Karlsson Member Committee recommends that the eight party members should be excluded. Among them are Gustav Kasselstrand and William Hahne.

Recites fifteen to twenty reasons

After the program developed Karlsson:

– The reasons that member committee states are fifteen to twenty points. These include that it has allowed activists from radical extremist groups become members and participate in the activities of the SDU. It has been criticized zero tolerance against extremism and defended people who obviously have had anti-Semitic views, he said.

But he says that the reasons are more.

– You have expressed sympathy for the racist sites on the Facebook, one has started collaboration with extremist parties abroad and tried to withhold evidence member committee in order to save members known to be extremists from becoming excluded. Overall, this has led member committee to this assessment.

According to Mattias Karlsson, there is evidence for all claims.

“We’re not back down an inch”

Both Kassel Beach and Hahnemann has said that they will remain in the SDU management, even if it is excluded.

– I think it reasonable had been that if you do not even have moderated the party’s confidence to be a member you can can no longer be representative. But they’ve the opportunity because the SDU is an independent union. Then it becomes a matter for the SDU’s union meeting later this fall. I think the Youth League members will choose another direction, he said.

He does not want do not go on the six other members are as a member on the Committee want to exclude.

– But it must be clear that zero tolerance against extremism and radicalism terms and the terms of the representatives of such youth. We want to show the electorate that what we say when we reject extremism, and that we make up our history, it is something we stand by and not just any media game. This is the focus of the SD in the future and we will not back down an inch.

Members Committee Chairman Magnus Olsson would not comment on yesterday’s decision. But he has previously ruled on the matter relating to Kassel Beach and Hahne.
