  • 13 out of 23 in the government call themselves feminists

    A little more than half of the ministers in Ulf Kristersson’s government call themselves feminists, shows a survey from SR Ecot.

    13 clearly answers yes to the question. Among them the Prime Minister himself, Labor Market Minister Johan Pehrson (L) and EU Minister Jessica Roswall.

    Seven do not call themselves feminists, although equality is an important issue for them. Among others is Foreign Minister Tobias Billström (M), who believes that the word has so many different definitions that it tends to contain the content of politics.

    Minister for Rural Affairs Peter Kullgren (KD) calls himself “mostly not” a feminist.

    “But if the definition is equality, equal rights, opportunities and obligations for both men and women, then I don’t mind being called a feminist, or a man with common sense,” he replies.

    Nilsson was sentenced for the 15 eels he pulled up in September 2021. Then he was caught red-handed and eventually had to pay SEK 38,000 in fines.

    The preliminary investigation that has now been closed concerned suspected poaching since 2008. Apparently, not enough evidence was found to continue investigating.
