In tonight’s Agenda, the Center Party’s party leader Annie Lööf was pressured on whether she had changed her view on not negotiating with the Left Party, after the two parties, after the battle for pensions, stood on the same side in the budget issue.
– No, we do not have that, she answers.
– The budget that we vote for on Wednesday contains emergency billions for the farmers, it contains very important reinforcements for the defense that the Center Party has been involved in negotiating and it does not contain the Left Party’s proposal.
However, the Left Party believes that they have been involved in negotiating the proposal, even though they were hesitant about the structure of the discussions.
– It has been the case that the Social Democrats have, so to speak, called us or had a meeting with us and then they have had a meeting with the Center Party, said the Left Party’s vice chairman Ida Gabrielsson in Aktuellt on Friday.
No information on the Prime Minister’s question
The center leader was also pressured about who she wants to see as prime minister after the next election, Magdalena Andersson (S) or Ulf Kristersson (M). As the polls look right now, it is difficult to see that either of the two could form a government without the support of either the Left Party or the Sweden Democrats.
– Now I do not have to make that choice, she answers.
– We go to the polls as a green, liberal, independent force and seek cooperation in the middle of Swedish politics.
