SSU’s Chairman Philip Botström is surprised Göran Persson’s initiative on banning begging:
– I sincerely hope that such a wise person Goran Persson did not mean it as he says in the article.
Philip Botström perceive it as if Persson addressed to the people today feel anxious about today’s society .
– But we see sitting outside Ica is the people who are poor and discriminated in their home countries. Behind the labels, we are all people with the same value and social democracy have to work against inequality in Europe, this is how we solve problems in the long term, not a ban, says Philip Botström.
S-noticed political scientist Stig-Björn Ljunggren says that it is no coincidence that Mr Persson speak out now.
– He and many others are damn worried, says Stig-Björn Ljunggren Aftonbladet.
– I meet people who have “good position” of the party throughout the country and they ask themselves: “is Social Democracy about to commit harakiri?”.
Ljunggren believes that Persson says is what many Social Democrats across the country are thinking and he believes that many want the party to go that way.
– it is well possible that Persson in this way provides support for them within the Social Democrats who want to turn the party in this direction and help them in the reversal.
another S-labeled statvetare, Ulf Bjereld, do not believe that the former Prime Minister’s statement will affect today’s S-line.
– I do not think this will dominate the news service from the municipal meeting in Örebro. Its political significance is minor, if not insignificant, says Ulf Bjereld.
EU politician Soraya Post (Fi) reacts strongly to Göran Persson’s initiative on begging ban.
– This allows me very upset. One can not legislate away poverty. Just because he lives in a mansion. He has not understood his privilege, and I hope not the current Labour leadership listens to him, but instead go to their ideological roots, she says to Expressen.
– There is no dignity in begging. But the money they get together will help them in their situation. It is crucial to their children and the elderly. How will it be able to become a better society by removing empathy ?, says Soraya Post.
Begging is an issue where Goran Persson takes a much clearer position than his party. Stefan Löfven as Prime Minister has sharpened his tone against begging and the government would also make it easier to evict beggars from unauthorized settlements. But the government rejects the idea of a ban, arguing that it “is not going to ban poverty.”
Goran Persson will thus not with:
– Introduce a general ban on begging, but give opportunity for the municipalities to grant an exemption. Something like that, it might well be imagined.
Goran Persson statement also provoked reactions on Twitter.
Expressen policies reporters Niklas Svensson:
Goran Persson and SD has the same “solution” to beggary. A little unexpected, though. https://t.co/KnfjgnrdCa
