It was ahead of the EU election last year that Kalla Fakta revealed that the SD's communications department ran anonymous accounts. Then Åkesson called the scrutiny an "in-house influence operation".
According to the SD's own subsequent election analysis, the party failed to mobilize voters by criticizing the scrutiny, but rather it may have negatively affected the confidence in individual representatives.
According to Åkesson, the party no longer has any anonymous accounts.
We do not intend to start any new such accounts either, because it is a gray area, I think it is an unnecessary debate and it is better that we do not engage in it, he says to the radio.
