The economist 𝕏 🇸🇪 wrote that the capital gains tax on real estate was unreasonable because the purchase price was not adjusted for inflation, while the selling price was increased. As an example, the writer took a house that was sold for 7 million kronor after being purchased for 2 million 20 years earlier. According to the writer, the capital gain would then be calculated at 5 million kronor and the state would receive 1.1 million, despite the fact that the state had not contributed to the increase in value. #reavinstskatt #bostadsmarknad #inflation (translated)

Compound interest wrote that the Center Party and the Green Party should not cooperate. According to the writer, the Center Party's view on individual freedom was in sharp conflict with the Green Party's elitism and support for tyranny and oppression of individuals, which the writer argued aimed to benefit the upper class in the inner city. The writer also believed that Current Affairs should broadcast what the post described and criticized the program for not highlighting the conflict. #politiksverige #yttrandefrihet #demokrati (translated)

Lena Malmberg (MED) wrote that she thought it was amusing when a reporter at SVT News needed to check what designation the Current Affairs editorial team had given to social debater Nick Alinia. According to Malmberg, the reporter hesitated between calling him a right-wing conservative and a right-wing activist. https://t.co/OaG2lbwRQV #komik #politiksverige #media (translated)

Daniel Schatz wrote that Sweden commemorated the third anniversary of the massacre on October 7 while antisemitism reached record levels. He criticized public service for airing a strongly biased documentary about the IDF and critical segments in Aktuellt about Israeli soldiers, stating that the victims of the attack were missing. He described the coverage as campaign journalism. #antisemitism #journalistik #historia (translated)

Daniel Schatz wrote that Mohamed Ali, whom he called a leftist, could be linked to a fraudulent company. Referring to information from Lars Petersson, Schatz claimed that the company lacked revenue and was not registered for F-tax, VAT, or payroll taxes. He also wrote that the share capital appeared to be depleted and that no control and balance sheet seemed to have been established. Schatz accused Aktuellt of not having verified the information before Agneta Nyvall appeared as a character witness. He wrote that the media had previously reported that Mohamed Abdukardir Ali had undergone debt restructuring and believed that this made his involvement in AfriTech more notable. According to Schatz, Ali was personally liable as a board member if the company had depleted the share capital without establishing a control and balance sheet. He also stated that the company had been fined a week earlier for submitting the annual report late. #Vänsterpartiet #skandaler #Affärsjuridik (translated)

Jan Lindberg wrote that he always reacted with strong discomfort when he saw or heard parliament members caring more about citizens in other countries than about Swedes. He described the evening's Aktuellt as such an occasion. https://t.co/zej6UWZRiv #politik #Sverige #aktuelltsverige (translated)

Ida Gabrielsson wrote that she would not participate in Aktuellt that evening, but that the party secretary Maria Forsberg and Anders Ygeman (S) would do so. She stated that she had a cold but expected to be well by Sunday’s Agenda and Thand Ringqvist's seminar. #Aktuellt #Politik #Sverige (translated)

Gustav Kasselstrand (AFS) described Alex Karp's land acquisition in Härjedalen as a major security risk and claimed that it brought foreign powers and special interests onto Swedish territory. He questioned the claim that Karp had purchased the land for skiing and wrote that the purchase of 15,000 hectares in a remote part of Sweden indicated, according to him, political and economic interests for Karp and Palantir. Kasselstrand wrote that he had been the only party leader during the election campaign to demand that Palantir leave Sweden, both the state apparatus and Swedish land. He said that the demand was now more relevant than ever. https://t.co/fS57esOEBw #Sverige #Palantir #Säkerhet (translated)

Yesterday in Aktuellt, Nike Nylander repeatedly asks about the government's plan. Simona Mohamsson replies: to implement very bourgeois policies that the Moderates and Center Party agree on, so the Center Party revises its red lines. Yet Nylander concludes: We received no answer. Apparently, only answers that one believes in count. https://t.co/SU4RngAnpj #Sverige #politk #Aktuellt (translated)

Jens Ganman in top form, as usual: "I see Ygeman on Aktuellt. He tries to play statesman-like, but unfortunately ... that suit is at least two sizes too big for him. He is too shallow. Lacks intellect, lacks natural authority. Just another one of those boys who joined SSU once upon a time to get laid. He has a suit now, has been a minister, but he fools no one. It's the same sticky marmalade fingers now as then, the same hopeless fumbling with the constitutional situation as with the Meccano and later: the bra straps he never managed to put together at Bommersvik after parties."

Nike Nylander in Aktuellt insisted that Simona Mohamsson should report on whether the Tidö parties have any plans if they come to power. Again and again. I never heard her demanding that from Magdalena Andersson. Not even when MA came to power does anyone on SVT demand a "plan" from Magdalena Andersson. #politik #Tidöpartierna #SVT (translated)

Yesterday and the day before, Aktuellt devoted almost the entire broadcasts to discussions and mediation attempts between the red-green parties (though not everyone participated). Tonight, 15 minutes were spent asserting that Mohamsson and Tidö "do not have a plan" on how to proceed if Andersson fails. The balance? #politik #medling #samhälle (translated)

Anders Ygeman and I were on Aktuellt. C did not want to come. Those of us who were there agreed that we must move forward now, even though we did not have quite the same view on how. But the alleged V and M bloc seems to have no one arguing for it for long. Good! Four parties have won the election, and therefore we should govern together. V has erased our stance towards C, now it's time for C to do the same job. Without V in the government, agreements on policy will not hold; it will just be nice words on paper. Before we negotiate policy, we must of course agree on who will implement the policy and in what way; otherwise, the negotiations will be blind. S and MP now need to put pressure on C so that they also erase their stance. It's not about bickering but about making sure that all four are respected equally. That V should solve this by themselves when C even declines the invitation for coffee does not feel reasonable. Mutual trust can only be built if all parties’ voters are respected. I sent this to S, and I also think that MP needs to step up. Otherwise, nothing will happen if C is just allowed to remain in their own room. That MP claims during the election campaign that they want V involved is good, also for MP, whose voters have that perception. But talking about something is not the same as working for it, and more than V needs to do that if there is going to be a new government. So far, all pressure has been directed at V, even though V does not say no to any party in Magdalena Andersson's support and that our "stance" only pertains to our own party's right to influence. To be "neutral" in a situation where one party does not respect another is not being a good "friend." And without pressure on C to accept V equally, we will get no government negotiations where we can start to give and take in the actual policy. I believe that is what the voters want to see and expect from us! #politik #regering #val2023 (translated)

Bizarre situation is unfolding now in Sweden. The four red-green parties that say they have won the election are unable to meet and talk to each other. Then SVT steps in as a mediator and tries to help put together a red-green government in Aktuellt. Only in Sweden. https://t.co/IX2SF7pKWo #Sverige #politik #rödgrön #SE (translated)
