The Left Party’s political-economic spokesperson, Ulla Andersson, wants to give municipalities additional resources next year.
In its budget proposal, the Left Party proposes almost SEK 40 billion more than the government in various supports for municipal activities in 2021.
– We are not content to prevent cuts. We want to improve quality, says Ulla Andersson, V: policy spokesperson.
Of the $ 40 billion, $ 10 billion goes to general state subsidies to municipalities, $ 10 billion to investment support for community properties such as schools and nursing homes, $ 5 billion to health care, and $ 3.5 billion to rehabilitation. of elderly care.
The investments will be financed primarily through tax increases and by denying government-proposed tax cuts.
In the Riksdag’s budget debate this fall, the Left Party hopes, along with other opposition parties, to be able to stop the government’s proposal to reduce employer contributions for youth. V wants to use the 9 billion crowns that he would then get rid of to strengthen welfare in the municipalities.
But Christian Democrats, for example, want to spend some of that money on reducing employer contributions, a reduction that is designed differently from the government’s proposal.
– But I also know that KD wants more money for the care and care of the elderly, so I think that together we will find a good solution, says Andersson.
