Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson says red-greens must be scrutinized more

"The red-green alternative is a threat that has not yet been sewn up." This is how Prime Minister and Moderate Party leader Ulf Kristersson explains that the red-greens have a large lead over the Tidö parties, 100 days before the election.

Far too few people are seriously examining what the most left-wing government ever in Sweden would mean for the economy and security, Kristersson claims in Ekot's Saturday interview.

In Statistics Sweden's large party sympathy survey the other day, the Social Democrats, the Left Party and the Green Party received support that would be enough for their own majority in the parliamentary elections on September 13. The Moderates, the Christian Democrats and the Sweden Democrats in the Tidölaget coalition collected 40.1 percent. The Liberals received 2.5 percent and would, if they were to stand in the election, leave the Riksdag.

"Everyone knows what we have achieved over these years. No one knows what a left-wing government would mean," the Prime Minister says.
