Katja Kokot noted that the amendment to the law on parliamentary investigations was passed in June, and non-governmental organizations then collected signatures and submitted them in September. She added that there followed 30 days of campaigning, during which the Constitutional Court made a decision in September that, in her view, changed the situation. She believed that the court essentially agreed with the purpose of the law, which was intended to prevent the halting of parliamentary investigations through appeals to the Constitutional Court. #parlament #zakonodaja #UstavnoSodišče (translated)

The SDS thanked the voters who, in its opinion, understand that their vote is the strongest democratic tool. It stated that the campaign once again demonstrated the influence of propaganda on public opinion. According to its words, some represented the parliamentary investigation of political officials as political police, while the political police in the past resorted to imprisoning, persecuting, and killing people. SDS added that Slovenia has a lot of work ahead for greater resistance to propaganda in order to reach the level of developed democracies. #demokracija #volitve #propaganda (translated)

The signals are contradictory: Trump claims that the U.S. will not attack Iran before the midterm elections. Trump has made various statements and has now said that the war may resume, but only after the midterm elections. In his speech at the UN General Assembly in September, Trump threatened to "obliterate the Islamic Republic" if there is no agreement. Trump claimed at a campaign rally this week that the leaders in Iran are under such pressure that they are ready to give in. What Trump cannot get past is that when the U.S. began the bombing war against Iran in February, together with Israel, he broke his explicit campaign promise not to engage the U.S. in a new "endless war." Trump boasted of great successes and declared victory repeatedly. #Iran #USA #Trump (translated)

Ida Gabrielsson wrote that the Left Party, unlike most other parties on the red-green side, had not campaigned primarily with the message of saying no to the Sweden Democrats (SD). According to her, the party had not repeatedly talked about an SD government, presented proposals for twelve SD ministers whom she described as more or less uncouth, or warned that Jimmie Åkesson could become prime minister. She wrote that the Left Party also believed that SD was wrong, but that voters needed to know what policies they were voting for. Gabrielsson thought that the negative campaigns and the political representatives' approach to each other had made it confusing to distinguish between SD and the other Tidö parties. She emphasized that the rhetoric had come from, among others, Ebba Busch, Simona Mohamsson, and moderate ministers, and that the politics had been presented jointly. According to Gabrielsson, the Left Party had therefore primarily focused on the policies it wanted to change. A campaign solely against SD risked, she wrote, appearing to target a group of people and giving someone the opportunity to adopt a victim role. She also believed it was contradictory to claim to be able to collaborate with everyone except SD, or preferably with the Tidö parties without SD, while campaigning on a different policy. Gabrielsson wrote that the Left Party had campaigned on its own policies and with Magdalena Andersson as a candidate for prime minister, well anchored in the red-green side. Therefore, according to her, the Left Party should not have to settle for having achieved a no to SD. #politik #Val2024 #rödgröna (translated)
