New episode of “Politikrummet Extra”, with Daniel Ingmo and Viktor Barth-Kronis about, among other things Ulf Kristerssons music offensive, a social democratic children’s book fiasco and about how the Green Party is now handling crises after the mouthpiece candidate Amanda Lind spoke critically about growth.

The last is strange, Viktor Barth-Kron believes – the Green Party was formed as a growth-critical party, which believed that there were too many factories and electricity in society already in 1981.

At the same time, it is a pattern that the MP does not really want to stand for its policy.

– The Green Party’s two most important political issues throughout time have been to shut down nuclear power and make gasoline more expensive. But as soon as someone says that MP have actually scrapped nuclear power and made it more expensive to drive, environmentalists start protesting and saying that no, no, no, it was the market or Vladimir Putin or whatever it may be, says Viktor Barth-Kron in the podcast.

– It’s like if Sweden were to close the border and lock up 5,000 gang criminals, and then the Sweden Democrats would run around waving their arms and say no, you know what, it was absolutely not the Tidö Agreement’s merit, it was the EU and Gudrun Schyman who did it.
