Damnit Sweden be careful, that should be bc a nuclear option if it exists at all
The Swedes have woken up and smelled the roses, good.
The first kidnapping in 20 years in my city here in Norway was committed by foxtrot Swedes.
I go to Sweden a few times a year and it has become a noticeably less fun experience each time.
Then what’s the point of citizenship, it used to be a permanent thing, hence why it is not given out like candy? Would be more sensible to be a lot stricter about giving citizenship.
Rare Sweden W. Maybe finally they’ll be able to fix their country from all the engineer-run gangs
In 2022, the leaders of four Swedish political parties – the Liberals (liberal-conservatives), the Christian Democrats (religious conservatives), the Moderates (liberal-conservatives, more right-wing than the liberals), and the Sweden Democrats (right-wing populists, slightly less extreme than AfD but still pretty crazy) signed an agreement at Tidö castle in Västmanland, typically referred to as the Tidö Agreeement, breaking a decades-long cordon-sanitaire against the Sweden Democrats by agreeing to form a new government with them.
Johan Pehrson, leader of the Liberals, said in private (later leaked) that the Sweden Democrats were a “brown sludge” (i.e. brownshirts) and that he had “prevented a load of crazy stuff” from being included. The agreement was widely denounced by human rights NGOs for having provisions deemed contrary to the rule of law and fundamental human rights.
The Swedish government as it stands cannot be trusted when it comes to their statements on immigration and citizenship policy. The government is held together by supply and confidence from our far-right.
EDIT: Also, the Sweden Democrats [operate their own Russian-style troll farm](https://www.thelocal.se/20240507/revealed-sweden-democrats-secret-social-media-troll-factory), who try and make Sweden out as some sort of dangerous gang-infested hellscape online. It’s deeply ironic how these self-proclaimed “nationalists” can be so unpatriotic.
Good. Time to get rid of all those racist right wing nuts
Lets do it, but then do it for everybody. It doesnt make a difference if the society pays for a foreign or a native criminal. Unfortunately the rich tax criminals and corrupt politicians wont vote for that
Better late than never!
This has the potential for some pretty unwanted consequences – ex accusing a political enemy of treason and revoking his nationality. Not now but in long run.
Be careful with this move, Sweden.
That’s an interesting idea
Why is this News? Every developed country has measures in place for revoking citizens’ rights in exceptional cases. Did the proportion of people who acquire citizenship and commit serious crimes, in relation to the proportion of the overall population that commits serious crimes, suddenly jump?
>Sweden’s minority government and its backers, the far-right and anti-immigration Sweden Democrats, won the 2022 election on a promise to keep reducing immigration and gang crime, which they say are linked. Stockholm granted the lowest number of residence permits to asylum seekers and their relatives on record in 2024.
>The proposals to revoke citizenship were put forward by a cross-party parliamentary committee. To change the Swedish constitution, the proposals need to pass a vote in parliament with a simple majority, followed by a general election and then a second Riksdag vote.
The right-wing government parties and their backers wanted to go further to also be able to revoke the citizenship of gang criminals with dual citizenship, but that proposal did not make it into the committee proposal.
>Around 20% of Sweden’s 10.5 million citizens were born abroad.
Earlier this week, the government proposed that the time before an immigrant living in Sweden can apply for citizenship be raised to eight years from five.
Ah. Now this story makes sense.
This won’t do anything. The target population is small and citizenship is not the issue policing them. This takes away time from more impactful measures
Finally, let’s hope Canada follows suit.
Finally, some good news from Sweden! 🇸🇪
I still do not understand how dumb they have been.
Why the hell do you need to grant citizenship to asylum seekers?
You let them in, helped them, but it is your country, why do they need voting rights to change the place where they came voluntarily because it was better place to be…
