13 older ladies with red hats He stood outside the Riksdag earlier today and chanted “aunts need more shamrock” over and over again.
It was gratifying to see that the temporary laws of the crown had not yet completely undermined the right to demonstrate, but today’s television photographers were busy with other things.
Søren Pape Poulsen, party leader of the Conservative People’s Party and former Minister of Justice of Denmark, was visiting, invited by moderates to speak about how the neighboring country has handled gang crime.

And now there was an opportunity to take a photo, one of all these paraphrases that the nisses of the press take when they expect newspapers, radio and television to act like useful idiots and do political publicity.
The moderate leader stepped on Riksgatan Ulf Kristersson and KD frontman Ebba Busch alongside Paulsen walked slowly at the request of the photographers and laughed and smiled.
Poor liberal Johan Pehrson found himself lounging a few steps back, something Kremlinologists might put their teeth into.

How did you feel, Kristersson, when a few minutes later you were interviewed on television in the lobby of the Riksdag!
It was the migration here and the murder there and the harangue that Prime Minister Löfven had no answer to contemporary problems.
But so is law and order in the homeland of the moderates. It is certainly true that the Social Democratic Justice Minister introduces new laws every other day, but what does Morgan Johansson get for that?
Young men continue to shoot each other and even a normally as trusted ally as Aftonbladet’s side of the leadership accuses the government of sleeping.
And speaking of Löfven, In yesterday’s party leader debate, the prime minister was invited to lunch today with the Dane.
To investigate how things went with that thing, I poked my nose into the Riksdag’s guest dining room that was set up.
– Do you want to settle down? asked the secretary of the party of the moderates, Gunnar Strömmer.
– I had thought it would be a fly on the wall, I replied.
“In any case, you can leave your mobile phone on on the table,” Kristersson said, after which laughter broke out.

Ulf Kristerson and Ebba Busch having lunch with Søren Pape Poulsen.
A woman press with something The cohesive face tried to smile and said it would come out to speak very soon, as good an indication as any that the visit was over.
Eight guests, three of whom were Danish. Not Löfven. There were carpaccio and char, dishes more delicious than ordinary people in the normal dining room had to choose from.
They sure had a lot to talk about. As justice minister, Poulsen took the initiative for anti-gang crime laws, which the Swedish right wants to copy to some extent.
A passing Social Democrat whispered that this man in turn had been inspired by the Swedish consent law, but no one cared on a day like this.
Poulsen is with the Swede measured measured strong tobacco. Like when he sighed a few years ago that it would be better if ISIS terrorists died on the battlefields in Syria.
An opinion that is certainly widespread, but not even in Denmark, it is common for a Minister of Justice to speak that way. There was a terrible uproar and journalists wanted to know if he was in favor of the death penalty.
Even more memorable is when the leader of the Conservative party shrugged off criticism of an electoral poster with the message “Stop Nazism-Islam.”
After lunch it was time for a seminar in the second chamber of the Riksdag. Parliamentary historical ground. Here universal and equal suffrage was applied in 1918. All possible milestones have been marked here.
Anna Pettersson Westerberg, head of the parliamentary bureau for moderates, welcomed, and then Kristersson spoke for a few minutes about how New York overcame the murder epidemic of the 1980s and seized the opportunity to demand “groundbreaking action,” whatever be.
That Sweden is not well, in any case he is absolutely right.
As of and including August this year, there have been 228 shootings, compared to 214 in the same period last year and 190 in 2018.
More than 150 people have been killed in the last four years in these settlements. And we’re just not going to talk about the bombing. in Europe, only regions that have suffered from low-intensity civil wars, such as Northern Ireland, have worse experiences.

Then it was time for the main attraction, whose Danish turned out to be pure Chinese. Better yet, the message was also found on easy-to-understand aerial images.
Poulsen pointed out that Denmark has problems too, and then fired from the arsenal.
Double penalties for gang crime, possibility of release later than the usual half-time, prohibition to return to their home municipality for up to ten years, visiting areas, recurring weapons amnesties …
It has worked? Pretty good, it seems. A third of the roughly 1,800 gang members in the country have disappeared from the streets and squares in one form or another in the past nine years.
The last one on the podium was the moderates’ legal policy spokesperson, Johan Forssell, who is otherwise busy posting selfies outside police stations on Instagram. He said that in recent years the party has made a series of proposals inspired by Denmark.
And after that, it was general question time. 32 people sat scattered in the hall, journalists, politicians, spinning doctors.
Dagens Industri’s political editor-in-chief, Prime Minister Nilsson, asked a tough question about migration. The Dane didn’t understand anything, but a young woman broke free from the shadows and translated.
The Fokus newspaper wanted to talk about Hells Angels and the Christian Democrat Andreas Carlson wondered something that no one bothered to answer.
At 2:28 p.m., two minutes before the appointed time, the seminar was interrupted. SVT, TV4, and TT lined up for interviews. Hit.
An impressive 450 people watched the webcast. Don’t come and say crime and punishment don’t get involved.
Overall, the show was informative. And we can probably learn a thing or two from Denmark.
However, for a time, the demands for a harder grip pushed so hard that there was reason to fear that the parrot Rosalinda would rise from the dead.
You know, the one who massacred the evil Pippi Longstocking poor dad in a prison tower in an old movie.
“Water and bread, water and bread, water and bread …”
