The Left Party's Member of Parliament Lorena Delgado Varas, who also sits on the party's board, recently took a break from her assignments. This after the Jewish Central Council reported her for incitement against an ethnic group since she shared an anti-Semitic image on X. A preliminary investigation was initiated but was dropped at the beginning of the week.
Now, Världen idag writes that Delgado Varas on her Instagram account is said to have "liked" both anti-Semitic comments and hateful comments directed at Foreign Minister Maria Malmer Stenergard (M) in connection with a post a month ago. The comments have now been removed, writes Dagens Nyheter.
"This is unworthy of a Member of Parliament and other parties would have taken such things very seriously. But not the Left Party. The question has been asked several times but must be asked again: Where does the boundary really lie for Nooshi Dadgostar?", writes Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson in a comment to Expressen and DN.
Maria Malmer Stenergard writes on X that it's time for the Left Party leader Dadgostar "to clean up in her ranks".
In the autumn, it was noted in several media outlets that a number of local Left politicians spread anti-Semitic messages and expressed support for terrorist organizations.
