      the article is wrong, it’s not been debated yet. it’s been put forward by the government but hasn’t passed the riksdag. it’s expected to go into effect in july because new laws in sweden always go into effect in january or july.

      Edit: also note that the bill runs contrary to the findings of the committee formed to investigate the possibility, which means support will not be unanimous within the government coalition.

        It has plenty of time to pass, the new citizenship laws are also slated to start going into effect on national day (June 6th) even though they’ve not passed yet. Passing the Riksdag ia a formality when the government has a majority.

        which means support will not be unanimous within the government coalition.

        Wrong conclusion if you ask me.

          you think? there’s been a lot of noise from inside the tidö team. i’m not sure they can put up a united front.

            I think they would’ve postponed it until after the elections like they’ve done with taking back permanent residencies if they were not all behind it. DN says “Regeringen går vidare med förslaget om vandelsprövning för uppehållstillstånd”, which is why this is in the news again, it’s very unlikely that at this stage a party backs out.

              i was assuming that they are trying to rush it through because they think it will win them more seats, but what with L disintegrating in real time i don’t think it matters either way.
