The politicians had to leave SD after two former Nazis were voted into positions of trust in the municipality.
One of the excluded, Jonas Luckmann, refers to the criminal code and claims that the Sweden Democrats lack a legal basis for the exclusion and states for South Sweden that they have therefore made a police report.
Political scientist Anders Sannerstedt points out that SD has excluded a number of people over the years.
— It is not a right to belong to a political party and as far as I understand this exclusion has been made entirely in accordance with the party’s statutes and normal procedures. Over the years, SD has excluded quite a few people, he tells Sydsvenskan.
