Swedish election debate in Norwegian

At a bar in Oslo’s Youngstorget, an election vigil was organised with over a hundred participants. Maria Can from the Adresseavisen newspaper moderated a panel consisting of (left to right) Sylo Taraku from the Agenda think-tank, Sweden’s ambassador Cecilia Björner and Claes Arvidsson from the Norwegian-Swedish Association.

New party Nyans had an impact on the election

Partiet Nyans

The Nyans party’s manifesto says:

  • Muslims and Afro-Swedes should be recognised as national minority groups.
  • Housing applications should be anonymised so that the only thing to determine who gets to hire an apartment is how long people have been in the queue.
  • Abolish employer tax for café and restaurant businesses with fewer than 10 employees.
  • Make it easier to set up schools for independent players. “More free schools are needed, not fewer”.
  • Increase the punishment for gun and drug crimes.
