Center Youth and Student Organizations Say ‘The Center Is Dead’ and Back Talks With Moderates

The Center Party Youth Union (Cuf) and Center Students say that “the centre is dead” and that the Centre Party must move forward in the government negotiations.

"Later this week, the Social Democrats and Moderates will present their full policy packages. Cuf will pay particular attention to how they keep the fringe parties away from the centre of power," chairwoman Emelie Rossheim writes in a comment to TT.

The Centre Party's student organisation is also open to Ulf Kristersson as prime minister, reports Svd.

"It has been well established that the centre is dead, and it's great that we're using our role as a kingmaker to make an impact with our liberal policies," chairwoman Filippa Torsvik tells the newspaper.

"Even during the election campaign, the Moderates came to us and wanted to entice us by saying that we could agree on all our demands and all substantive policies. With that in mind, it looks like there is a greater chance of political unity," she continues.
