On Wednesday, Lena Hallengren (S) sent a jab at the Folklistan and said it was good that "this strange party no longer exists".

It still exists "to 110 percent", the party responds.

I think it's strange when politicians have opinions on whether it's good if parties exist or not, says the Folklistan's press chief Tim Sundblad, who emphasizes that the party certainly still exists.

It was in connection with the Folklistan's founder Jan Emanuel getting his membership back in the Social Democrats that Lena Hallengren, the Social Democrats' group leader in the Riksdag, expressed herself.

I would like to know what she thought was "strange" about us, but we still exist to 110 percent, says Tim Sundblad.

The Folklistan will continue, but at present, it is not entirely clear who will lead the party after it failed to enter the EU Parliament. Jan Emanuel has left and Sara Skyttedal has not given any indication about her future.
