Christian Peterson wrote that ETC had long questioned the financing of right-wing media and referred to a previous statement by the editor-in-chief, Andreas Gustavsson, that it was relevant to examine who financed the media. Peterson stated that ETC reacted when the editorial team understood what he was working on. According to him, his contacts with shareholders were described as an attempt to intimidate engaged individuals. He also wrote that Gustavsson presented theories that the investigation was commissioned by the Sweden Democrats (SD), while Mathias Wåg, whom Peterson described as a founder of Swedish Antifa, called it a serious threat to press freedom. Peterson wrote that the reactions came before the investigation had barely had time to be published. https://t.co/tah1UzUyt7 #Media #Pressfrihet #Finansiering (translated)

Christian Sandström noted that business dealings between companies linked to politicians and the public sector amounted to 64 billion. He referred to Acta Publica's report "Elected Businesspeople – An Examination of Corruption and Infiltration Risks in Companies Linked to Politicians," where 2,584 companies that invoiced public entities could be linked to local politicians according to him. Sandström stated that 1,080 of the companies had done business with the municipality or region where the politician held their position. They billed these municipalities or regions a total of 3.7 billion kronor during 2022-2024, he wrote. He added that 50 companies had won contracts in the politicians' own municipalities or regions, with an estimated contract value of 4.6 billion kronor.

Now Sveriges Radio is reporting extensively on rapes against the elderly in home care. A couple of weeks ago I wrote about just this – about how elderly care has long functioned as a labor market for integration policy for newly arrived and immigrant labor. Some points from my review: • Elderly Minister Anna Tenje notes that elderly care has for too long been used as a labor market and integration policy arena: “Almost anyone has been allowed in.” • Foreign-born individuals account for 31.8 percent of the wage sum in care, compared to 19.1 percent in the economy as a whole. Care is the welfare sector with the highest proportion. • Of the over 20,000 unaccompanied men who arrived in 2015, 27.5 percent are now working in care, social services, and welfare – about 5,500 people. • Employers can receive very large government wage subsidies to hire, among others, newly arrived individuals. A home care entrepreneur describes to Fokus how employers are actively fed information about the support. • The Employment Service also states that the authority does not impose its own requirements for education, language, or suitability when someone is matched with elderly care: “It is the employer who sets the requirements.” • And the question that still lacks a proper answer: is there a connection between this recruitment and integration policy and the abuses? Anna Tenje says that the knowledge situation is too poor to draw that conclusion. The Crime Prevention Council has therefore been tasked with mapping the crimes.
