    Committee says no – does not call the prime minister

    The defense committee goes against chairman Peter Hultqvist (S) and does not call Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson (M) to the committee.

    “Unfortunately,” points out Hultqvist.

    He had requested that Kristersson answer questions in the committee about his security advisor Henrik Landerholm, who caused several security incidents.

    Among other things, Landerholm has forgotten classified documents at a course farm in 2023. They were then found by cleaning staff, according to Dagens Nyheter.

    – I think it’s bad. We have to clean up this culture that has become around Landerholm and his staff unit, which means that there is an acceptance of repeated carelessness with actions, says Hultqvist.

    Bob Dylan starts with Tiktok

    Times are changing – and Bob Dylan with them. According to Billboard, the 83-year-old musician and Nobel laureate has obtained a Tiktok account, just days before a possible shutdown of the platform in the United States.

    In Dylan’s very first post on January 14, his followers are invited to “discover the world of Bob Dylan, now on Tiktok”. The video contains clips, stills and album covers from the artist’s long career to a soundtrack of songs like “Like a rolling stone”, “Knockin’ on heaven’s door” and “Hurricane”.

    While fans seem to have received his Tiktok debut well, there have also been some rumblings about his late arrival on the platform.

    “You have 30 minutes, the king,” reads one of the comments on the post.
