Jimmie Åkesson has drawn a line in the sand and says no Tidö voter should vote for the Liberals if the party does not reach 3.5 per cent with ten days left until the election. According to him, those would be "wasted votes".

Then all blue-yellow voters should vote for one of the other parties in this bloc, Åkesson told SVT on Sunday.

L has received 1.9 per cent in two recent surveys.

“Done for Jimmie”

But Simona Mohamsson dismisses the SD leader's message.

There is a right-wing leader who still believes in the Tidö project. I genuinely believe that this is best for Sweden, says Simona Mohamsson.

She warns that there can be no "blue-yellow collaboration" without L.

Things are going well for Ulf as Prime Minister and things are also going well for Jimmie Åkesson in his dreams of becoming a minister.

She thinks that instead of arguing, the Tidö parties should come together and focus on the red-greens.

The alternative is the most left-leaning government Sweden has ever had. A government that will raise taxes, have more immigration and lower penalties. It is bad for Sweden, says the Liberal leader.

“Intensive work”

Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson (M) dodges the question in an interview with Aftonbladet about whether he also urges his voters not to vote for L.

"I will always say: Vote for the Moderates," he tells the radio.

Everyone is aware that you have to win voters on your own merits.

He hasn't given up hope for L.

It's three weeks of intensive work. It will determine the future of the Liberals, says Kristersson.

“Wishing a spirit of togetherness”

Nor does Christian Democrats leader Ebba Busch want to say anything about a support vote.

"I'm here to shine a light on something else today and want to keep the focus there," she tells TT during a visit to Fagersta in connection with Friday's school shooting.

If there's one thing I wish for, it's that this spirit of unity that we saw this weekend, that it might be allowed to characterize the rest of the election campaign. It's possible to highlight your own positive proposals without trying to bring anyone else down.
