    – We need to have a changed privacy legislation that not only gives an opportunity to share information, but it should actually be an obligation, says Jarl Holmström, deputy regional manager of the police in the South region, to Ekot.

    After a series of acts of violence in schools in Skåne, the police have switched to a tactic where they focus on finding warning signs in schools. It has yielded results, according to Jarl Holmström.

    – Other students may have noticed another student who made statements that it should be shot, cut or blown up. We have disarmed people and confronted several young people, he tells Ekot.

  • Biden lost big yesterday and you didn’t want to answer.

    Today he lost again in the Supreme Court regarding student loans.

    The question is, why don’t you want Swedes to find out when it goes against Biden?

    The Nicklas diver

    That HD makes decisions regarding American universities, which Biden is critical of, doesn’t perhaps feel very interesting to us here in Sweden?

    But here you can read a bit about it, if you want 🙂

  • A rose to Aftonbladet’s columnists!

    Wolfgang Hansson and Johanna Fränden for example, there are several who are very good!

    Write directly and honestly about what everyone thinks, but no one dares to say/write and are comfortably freed from fear that not everyone will like them. Strong!

    It’s called cilvilcourage, a way of being that I thought was practically extinct.

    Astrid

    What a nice tribute Astrid!

    They will probably be very happy about it 💛
