Get contribution cheaters punished – Västerbotten Courier

There are few people suspected of benefit fraud to be punished, according to Dagens Nyheter. Of the 613 police reports that the Social Insurance Agency was again reported by police last year was 70 percent down.

The reason so many notifications laid down is often the person has moved abroad, the preliminary investigation restriction applies, which means that the person is already being investigated for felonies, or that the case is time-barred.

Both the Social Insurance Agency and the police are guilty of some crime time-barred. It may have been a long time between the grant of the offense and that the insurance agency reports. The police have many other issues higher priority.

– We are following many complaints. We can not keep up as much as we want and can not strike at all. It will take time before we can look at some contributions crime increases the risk of it going so long that the offense is time-barred, says Jan Granqvist, group manager for Stockholm Police’s Fraud Section.

Control of support to civil society – Västerbotten Courier

The government faced tougher checks on organizations’ basic values ​​before tax money paid, writes Culture and Democracy Minister Alice Bah Kuhnke (MP) in Dagens Nyheter.

“Support to civil society and religious groups to deepen democracy, not undermine it,” she writes.

the government will take a series of measures. Among other things, support only paid to ethnic organizations in their activities to respect the ideas of democracy, such as equality and non-discrimination. Although demands for democratic values ​​must be tightened for religious communities.

“We can never accept that taxpayers’ money is used to organize hatretorik and increased polarization” writes Bah Kuhnke.

These measures should clarify that “those who are taking part of community support also to live up to the trust and the democratic values ​​that are the basis for the joint societies”.

Eventually gave Löfvens work results – Västerbotten Folkblad

The Social Democrats increased the most and the Sweden Democrats lose the most. S, V and MP is greater than the Alliance and KD go out of parliament. It had been the result if the election were today, this according to SCB’s party preference, which was presented on Tuesday.

New polls presented all the time. Often blown even small changes up big, even though the changes are not statistically significant. But SCB’s party preference stand out. The substrate is ten times greater than in other studies, and it is presented twice a year. Therefore, this is an investigation to take seriously.

S increases 2 percentage compared with November. Green Party loses 1.2 percentage points, but lose most of S. Left increasing 1.3 percentage points and taking voters from MP but no S.

S increases so much in opinion while the coalition parties MP breaks down, it is a sign of strength for Stefan Löfven.

In the bourgeois bloc slopes KD 3.1 percent. The lift that KD would get the new party leader and scrap of December agreement failed to materialize fully. KD is sinking further during the parliamentary latch.

The C and L lie still and M increased by 1.2 percentage points. The Sweden Democrats are reduced the most by 2.6 percentage points. And they lose the most to the Conservatives.

What is it that happened since the survey in November? When dominated migration issues completely. But by the government put on its migration policy were killed on the issue politically.

In the wake of many asylum seekers flocked country saw the Swedish business community and right their chance to demand lower wages “for integration’s sake.” But the labor movement put your foot down, no one should pay more because of their skin color

Prime Minister Löfven urged to battle for the Swedish model and in wage negotiations turned the trade unions is not an inch. It did not lower starting salaries. On the contrary, those who earn at least got the biggest wage increases. And the greatest increase were nurses.

Alongside the political game, the economy has really taken off. The employment rate is now better than it ever was under Reinfeldt. And yes, actually better than it ever was under Göran Persson’s government. More and more people know someone who got a job for the first time in a long time.

Wage negotiations resulted in higher wages, government policy has provided for higher unemployment benefits, all parents now receive free medicines to their children and the welfare of billions beginning to be felt in the municipalities .

Many have simply got better. Then fit the Alliance of rhetoric and that everything goes wrong and that the government would “threaten jobs” right bad.

It also has happened since November is the scandals surrounding Municipal and MP. The S increases so much in public opinion while coalition party MP breaks down, it is a sign of strength for Stefan Löfven.

While it is important to remember that 29.5 is still a low figure of S. It is election results in 2014 and far below what is required to achieve a progressive majority in parliament. There is a risk remains that M and SD merge to form a blåbrun alliance in the parliament, in the same way as they have done in Gävle.

The Alliance’s current strategy is to add his rhetoric closely SD Nations and bring a cultural war through the gambit of “Swedish standards”, water cannons and rubber bullets. Unemployment may not be fought either with air or rubber and that similar problems of unemployment, poverty and hopelessness are in mining villages, they have completely forgotten.

The government should stay out of this culture of war and the continued focus on what creates change in people’s everyday lives. It is precisely this work that is now yielding results in the opinion. If the government is in this and find a story that binds it all together, well then it will be really tough for the Conservatives to come.

SD slopes most of the new large measurement – Aftonbladet

The Social Democrats increased the most in today’s survey from Statistics Sweden, to 29.5 percent.

– A show of strength for Stefan Löfven says party secretary Carin Jämtin.

Government partner the Green party backs after the turmoil, but keeps continuing the latch to Parliament.

the Sweden Democrats stand for measurement largest bottler.

– I think it reflects public opinion situation pretty well, says party secretary Richard Jomshof.

the measurement from Statistics Sweden, SCB, carried out on behalf of Parliament and performed in May and November each year since 1972.

MP: Expected journal

today is directed much focus on government parties and how they have fared after the turmoil surrounding the Green Party, which spokesperson Åsa Romson and housing Minister Mehmet Kaplan left their posts.

2014 election had the support of MP 6.9 percent but in the polls recently, has the green fluctuated around four percent threshold. In recent SCB party got 5.9 percent.

Now the party is noted for a peg of 1.2 to 4.7 percent, which is the worst figure in a decade. But maintains itself above the latch to Parliament.

– It is quite expected figures in terms of the recent events. It is positive that the Government of the substrate S and MP together with V moved on since November and we are bigger than the Alliance, said party secretary Amanda Lind (MP).

She says the party must now focus on their own policies.

– It’s never fun when you do not get the numbers that you would like to have. But there is a strong belief in the future of our party after the recent events. We have a new spokesperson savings and we have two new green ministers. It empowers us to work on.

It is primarily for their cooperation parties V and S as the green drops.

“Strong figures for Löfven”

Prime Minister Stephen Löfvens party Social Democrats received 27.6 percent of the SCB in November, which was slightly above the other measurements the same time. The party now listed for a sharp increase from 1.9 to 29.5 percent.

The Party Secretary Jämtin says that the measurement “is a sign of strength for Stefan Löfven.”

– He has consistently taken the battle to the Swedish model, for more jobs and made the necessary decisions to deal with the refugee crisis. It is right for Sweden and has increased its support for our party. We have big challenges ahead of us. But do we have the right priorities in the coming years, we can create the future and a safer and better country to live in, she says. SEE ALSO TV “I see it as a sign of strength for Löfven”

While V goes up

the government’s partner on the budget, the Left, is progressing significantly (+1.3) and get 6.8 percent and is thus of its election results from 2014.

– We are increasing in all investigations right now. We are experiencing stronger support for the Left in general and Jonas Sjöstedt, is very popular. It is particularly gratifying to see that we can increase while the Social Democrats do it. It is a kind of shift to the left. There are many who got the idea that it will go well for us so it must go badly for S and so is not. Rather, they can take votes from the bourgeoisie and then some from S to us.

– If you look at this spring, it has become more of equity issues in the debate. Should we have reduced wages or everyone will have a fair wage? Should we have gains in welfare? It’s the most important issues so I think there is an explanation, said Aaron Etzler, party secretary (V).

SD stands for the biggest drop in

Jimmie Akesson’s party Sweden Democrats supported by 17 , 3 percent in the measurement and thus account for the biggest drop in by all parties, minus 2.6 since the last survey in November 2015.

the Party Secretary Richard Jomshof (SD):

– I think it reflects public opinion situation pretty well. It is still the case that this is the second highest result ever for the Sweden Democrats in a SCB measurement. It’s a good result and I’m very happy with it. It was expected that we would back slightly, he said.

SCB’s survey shows that it is primarily the M SD loses.

The Moderates represent the only rise in Alliance . Anna Kinberg Batra party gets 24.7 percent and is thus up by 1.2 percentage points since November.

The Party Secretary Tomas Tobé says this:

– It is positive that the Conservatives increases and I think that is all that we have presented a plan for a stronger Sweden with more menial jobs, more police, more teaching hours but also reduced costs for grants and migration.

Tobé am pleased that voters now flows back to M SD:

– Many people see that we have taken hold of the immigration issue. But I also believe that more can see that we need to take hold of integration. Where we believe the Conservatives that they should learn Swedish and get into the job while the SD says that we should not have any integration policy. I do not think voter estimates.

KD would go out

The Christian Democrats would go out of parliament if the election were today. The party noted for 3.1 which is the lowest figure ever. In the 2014 election the party got 4.6 percent.

The Party Secretary Acko Ankarberg Johansson (KD) is concerned about the party’s low numbers.

– We take this very seriously, she says.

KD drop mainly to SD, M and L, demonstrates SCB’s survey. SEE ALSO TV “Will a fragile government next election”

The Centre Party gets 6.1 percent and is thus still in opinion. Michael Arthursson, party secretary:

– We have been at or over the election results since the 2014 election and we have to work on that basis. We had very kämpigare during the previous term of office. It feels stable for us.

Liberals Party Secretary Maria Arnholm comments measurement like this:

– We, the Liberals are working on developing new policies aimed at
increased support in the next election. My belief is that societal challenges
as jobs, integration or housing best met with liberal
solutions where the individual’s freedom of choice and self-determination must be
center.

In the position of the political blocks, it is advantageous for the red-green parties: S, V and MP get together 41.0 percent, while the Alliance gets 39.3.

Major shortcomings in Gotland defense experts say – Sveriges Radio

– To begin with, all of Gotland, they can not even defend at all. We are talking about a single place, Slite Visby airport or port or something like that, Karlis Neretnieks, a former director of the Gotland Regiment and the director of the National Defence University.

Defence experts Caliber have talked to are particularly critical that there is anti-aircraft and artillery on the island.

So the crisis, anti-aircraft coming from Halmstad and artillery Constance. Even those soldiers who can run battle Gotland 14 tanks have to go to the island from the mainland.

Karlis Neretnieks do not think you can defend Gotland until these strengths come.

– Nah, you can defend a place for shorter or longer. It would be enough to supply connections to Gotland, it is not. For all the supplies that we will try to do in a place like position, the Board will also be tackled, says Neretnieks.

The defense of Gotland is a fraction of what it looked like at cold war. Since 6000 could longtime soldiers, employees, and that made military service, quickly mobilized.

2018 will be 160 professional soldiers and the Home Guard 460 to Gotland. And so the 140 temporary workers who must get to the island. Thus, about one-tenth as many troops on the island.

One billion spent on rebuilding a defense of Gotland and it is part of the 10 billion that the Armed Forces have been in extra funding over the period 2016-2020. Furthermore invested SEK 780 million to build a new garrison.

Caliber has called out Armed Forces’ own analysis of how defense capabilities will with the extra additions. The document we have got out is largely masked. But not all. So here it is:

“Risk-taking is too large relative to the opportunities to meet different courses of events. This is particularly evident with respect to information in the higher levels of conflict.”

This means that Sweden has continued difficult defending the country in war and conflict.

Defence Minister Peter Hultqvist not exclude that there will be more focus on the defense of the island.

Can battlegroup Gotland as it is designed now defend the island at an attack?

– the battlegroup can of course once it is completed to constitute something that is raising the threshold, which is an aggravating factor for a potential attacker. And that lead was also of course we have a completely different preparedness opportunity on the island. So I think this is an important investment. Then if this is the end point, it is well to early to say. But I think after all that this issue will be very relevant in the next defense preparation also Gotland, says Peter Hultqvist.

Opposition Criticism of rating trials – Aftonbladet

Education. First came the government and the opposition agree that schools can test to give ratings fourth grade.

But now think the opposition to the government violates the agreement, by the way the trial was designed.

Alliance and the Sweden Democrats are primarily critical of the government because, they say, have not been involved and agree on how the trials with scores in fourth grade to be implemented more concretely, reports the Swedish radio news.

– we are very disappointed that the government has done this myself and in a manner which departs from the agreement we had, says Christer Nylander, liberals spokesperson on education issues, said.

At least four school units

Partly they are critical of those who are in the trial must have at least four school units to be involved, which means that smaller schools can not be with .

Partly they are critical of that when the trial will be evaluated the comparison shall be made with schools of aesthetic learning processes, such as singing and dancing, instead of the regular schools.

– It will do the trials difficult to evaluate and draw conclusions. And here we have not discussed, says Christer Nylander.

To echo says Gustav Fridolin that the two sides agreed that they should have no more than a quarter of its schools . But Christer Nylander says it mainly focused on preventing large municipalities with many schools to take up many of the experimental sites.

Want to Government changes

As for the criticism of comparison says Fridolin to echo that because the schools in question are not randomly selected – principals and teachers must themselves be eager to test – you can not get results that can be applied to the entire school system.

the alliance now wants the government is changing, and will call attention to it.

– Do they not then there is of course a majority in parliament for the grades from year four and then get well the reactivated, says Christer Nylander.

FACTS

The defense accused the dark about environmental toxins – Sveriges Radio

The investigation has lasted more than a year and for those who worked at the fire drill site.

The review is now complete but the defense chooses to keep the results to yourself.

– It is outrageous that a public authority chooses to cover up a survey they did of what befell their employees, says Herman Afzelius who is chairman of PFAS association.

High levels
it was in December 2013 that it was discovered that the drinking water in Kallinge contained soaring levels of the environmental toxin PFAS.

The same substance on fire foam that since the 1980s has been used on the air wing F17. PFAs are stored in people and the environment and has been shown to have hormone-disrupting effects on the thyroid and fertility.

Privacy
Herman Afzelius who himself drank the polluted water Kallinge think it is important for the whole society that all information is on the table.

Folke Borgh , head of the Defence environmental assessment unit, says that the key is to protect the employee’s privacy. And he does not think the defense blinds.

– Not a thing, he says.

Is the reason that you do not publish the results could be perceived as unfavorable to defense?

– no, it is about ensuring that health information can not be traced to an individual individual, he says.

But Herman Afzelius believes that it is important that the large study that follows over 60 000 people who live or lived at Kallinge since the early 1980s may be as good a basis as possible .

There, Defence investigation could be a good addition, he believes.
