Saturday morning at the Book Fair in Gothenburg looked like an ordinary day for the former Folklistan leader John Emanuel. But in the middle of the preparations for his performances, a conversation came that turned everything upside down – the hotel in Skåne, where he was supposed to stay, wondered where he was. Only then did Jan Emanuel realize the embarrassing truth: he had completely forgotten to Jimmie Åkesson and Matilda Kärnerup were to marry on the same day.
Today, the wedding takes place between Sweden Democrats party leader Jimmie Åkesson and Matilda Kärnerup in Sölvesborg. In this week’s episode of News24 podcast The flow discussed the details of the wedding, everything from the guests not being allowed to give speeches to the festival theme of the wedding.
But the invitation to Jimmy Åkesson’s wedding had been completely forgotten by former party leader Jan Emanuel.
– I’m such a damn scumbag. People are mad at me now, Jan Emanuel told Aftonbladet honestly.

40 bottles of whiskey
This unexpected twist in the weekend’s plans created some irritation at the Book Fair, where Jan Emanuel had several commitments. But it wasn’t just missed performances that created headaches. He had also planned a party in a suite at the Park hotel in Gothenburg, and he had fully loaded up for it.
– I have bought 40 bottles of whiskey for the party. Now I guess I have to give them to Jimmie as a wedding present instead, Jan Emanuel said in the interview.
In a post on Jan Emanuel’s Instagram stories, he writes:
“For those concerned: Tonight’s suite party with whiskey tasting during the book fair has been cancelled. Cultural elite with whiners can sip free booze elsewhere tonight”.
