I am currently not very motivated to help a government that includes the Finns Party to succeed, but for the sake of the Swedish People’s Party (SPP) and the country, I am writing this post anyway.
I believe that SPP should demand tomorrow that the government program must include that all changes regarding immigration be postponed until the government has created a completely new immigration program based on a positive future vision for the next 20-30 years. We must do it anyway
because the current situation has been anything but good. Current laws and methods have been built in many small steps in a very amateurish manner without experience and knowledge over the past 30-40 years. And in the same amateurish way, they have also been cut and changed without
a comprehensive concept.
As a result, we lack workforce and have managed to become the most racist country in Europe according to a 2018 survey comparing 12 EU states, including Sweden and Denmark. Unfortunately, the Marin
government has not changed much about it either; last year we were reminded and warned by the EU Commission because we had not implemented changes.
But it should not be external pressure that motivates us; as mentioned, it should be a positive future vision regarding immigration that leads us. A vision of a cohesive country that can attract the best workforce from everywhere in the world and that provides security for immigrants and ethnic minorities and their families who are already. There has to be an end to demotivating and frustrating those who constitute our only growing population segment. We need to be a country that contributes its part to alleviate the distress in the world. A country that draw energy, inspiration, and innovation from all its population parts, and where everyone has the right to be happy, find suitable work, and feel part of society. A country that respects international agreements and where everyone can contribute to the welfare.
I do not believe that there is a great risk that, against my will, I am helping the Finns Party to participate in a successful government; one can hardly expect them to accept good advice.
