I offer now as a chance to stand up and defend that claim. E: wrong URL

Hob_Gadling posted:What does this mean in practice? Alliansen will vote for governments suggestions? Alliansen got more say in how the country is run? A year of peace and three of constant warring? It seems to mean that whatever block is in the minority won't vote against a budget. There will also be some cooperation in the areas of energy, pensions and defence. While all other policy areas will be voted on as normal. Since the budget is the most important vote, I imagine whoever is in the majority (i.e. biggest minority) will have some peace and quiet. Hopefully there won't be too much cooperation so the some distinction between the parties are upheld.

I honestly don't know what SD was expecting would happen when they declared themselves against the remaining 87% of parliament. This is not Italy. Watching Paula Beiler cry her eyes out in Aftonbladet makes this a very good holiday season for me.

When the alternative was a re-election in which SD stood to GAIN votes and power, meaning the other parties would have to make a similar arrangement to keep them out of power anyway, then this really seems like the best solution. Assuming you're not a xenophobic nationalist that is.

OldManMarsh posted:Depends, if people actually start reading about the poo poo SD politicians say and do they may (hopefully) stop voting for them. While I don't think a re-election would've changed anything, since the net result would be the same, this is just naïve. It's basically what we hoped would happen with DF and FrP in Denmark and look where we are now. DF are looking at around 18-22% of the votes. The one major advantage Sweden has over us is that your politicians refuse to take SD seriously or give them any kind of influence, whereas here we get the worst of both worlds; whenever the right gets a majority: right-wing economic policy combined with xenophobic and conservative immigration and culture policies. Whenever the "left" gets a majority: Attempts to emulate the immigration views of DF to pander to their voters and very slightly less right-wing economic policy. E: I guess it's because the core profile of a closet racist/nationalist/xenophobe/etc. never really changes, and in turn the only people who'd consider voting for SD fit in those groups, and as such are already to some extend aligned with any kind of racist poo poo a SD politician would spew. Of course they'll never admit that they're racist/xenophobic/etc. because that's a bad label and in politics we can't just call things what they are. I'm pretty sure that's what's happening with DF.

For another 30 minutes SR are talking with a couple of politicians about the deal at this location http://sverigesradio.se/sida/artikel.aspx?programid=1637&artikel=6055728 Unfortunately I've missed most of it. Hoping it gets recorded in case I'll feel like listening to all of it. EDIT: Björn Söder (SD) currently on. Hoping for a lot of tears and funny bullshit. EDIT again: Tears and bullshit quota of today achieved. They brought in an SD voter. Quote from that particular voter: "What happened today was that democracy ended." I can't stop laughing about that one... OldManMarsh fucked around with this message at 17:29 on Dec 27, 2014 |

The way to make SD voters stop voting SD is to let them have power proportional to their % of votes and let everyone see they don't have any answers. Exclusion will just keep increasing their support. This is not me supporting SD (or the Finnish equivalent, been a Left Alliance/Green voter my whole life). Democracy means you have to honor the election results even if you don't like it.

Democracy means you have to honor the election results even if you don't like it. The reason they don't have any power is that no party is willing to cooperate with them due to their politics. Considering that SD aren't willing to compromise on their core politics, I don't know why other parties need to do that. I don't see this as anything near dishonoring election results, that's blowing this way out of proportion. OldManMarsh fucked around with this message at 17:48 on Dec 27, 2014 |

No, the social democrats and the green party negotiated an agreement with the alliance. They both agree to follow certain rules that will let a minority government rule. This means that SD just lost their position as kingmaker in the parliament when it comes to stuff like finances, defence, environment and immigration. Outraged, SD called a vote of no confidence, but no one really cares. Fader Movitz fucked around with this message at 23:14 on Dec 27, 2014 |

dorkasaurus_rex posted:SD tried to call for a confidence vote and it backfired horribly? That's my understanding of what happened? Short version of the events The government proposed a budget. The opposition coalition "the alliance" voted against it and SD voted against it. SD tried to appeal to the government and say "Hey, government, we're going to vote for your budget if you amend it with a lot of horrifically racist poo poo". The government did not want to negotiate with SD and called for a re-election instead. Because neither the government or the opposition particularly care for a re-election, they instead called a ceasefire of sorts, in which they will not vote against each other's budgets, essentially. SD's plan to force themselves into relevance has collapsed. SD is very angry at this and calls a vote of no confidence, but no one cares.

Exercu posted:Short version of the events The deal actually also goes through the next parliament (which will be elected in 2018) as well. Basically, the opposition parties will abstain from budget votes, ensuring that, even if there is a minority situation, the government will get their budget passed. Edit- Reuters is saying that the agreement also includes a proviso that, if neither alliance gets a majority in the next election, the M/G/V/KD bloc would be guaranteed to form the next government, though I haven't seen that anywhere else.

A Moderates/Left/Green/Christian Democrats coalition? That'd be interesting to watch for the sheer hilarity of it. (also, such a provision(which if anything would mean the Alliance, I guess) is most likely bullshit because that'd mean that if S+MP got 45, percent, SD 30, V 5 and the Alliance all got five percent per party it'd mean we'd have a 20% government. What the provision is, most likely, is that the biggest power bloc, no mater the parties involved, form the government regardless of if they got a majority or not)
