How does it feel to be dictators on the internet, choosing which questions appear here that you have some kind of iq to be able to answer or feel responsible for and then post snarky comments that no one can counter-argue against?
News story day week
It’s hard to feel a bit of a dictator rush from occasionally answering questions about one’s work in a small and rather hidden “Ask the Editor column”… if that’s what you mean?
In the headline about the billion-dollar deal, it says that 246 military vehicles are being bought by Sweden, but in article 90. What is correct?
Rolf
Hi Rolf! The Czech Republic buys 246 Swedish vehicles of the type “Stridsfordon 90”.
Combat vehicle 90 is a tracked combat vehicle where the gunner sits in a rotating turret, here you can read more about it.
when a few bombs go off in Russian cities, revolution is afoot. When bombs go off every night in Swedish cities, it’s a bit of gang activity. Give up AB, you are pathetic

Hello Crypto! We in the newsroom do not interpret what happens based on a feeling or opinion. What we report is based on information from relevant sources. Also don’t know where you find that we call explosions “a bit of gang mischief”? Have a nice day!
Gets so annoyed at articles about “hungry children”. A “poor” mother only has 9000 left to live on after the rent. I have SEK 2,000 left when the bills are paid (live in a serviced building where the rent is SEK 11,000). Why are only families with children “poor”?
kerstin frazen
Hi Kerstin! It is of course not only families with children who are poor and we have written about other people who have been affected. And also sorry for your tough seat. But children can be considered particularly vulnerable as they themselves cannot take responsibility for their situation, are dependent on adults and cannot be expected to understand their situation in the same way as adults.
