I mean, if the all-male panel basically just goes "there is inequality, it is a problem and we all have unconscious biases. So dudes, stop being creepy and stop insisting sexism isn't real. That's it, we're out." and hand off the mics, that would be something. Not perfect, but something.

can someone explain as to why property owners are pro marknadshyror outside of “me want money”

Marknadshyror provides a much needed incentive to own rental properties which will mean more rental properties are built and so the housing crisis will be solved.

Personally I think more rental units will be built but the people living there will be doing that American thing of using 80% of your income on rent so you don't have to commute for 2 hours to your inner city job. Optimistically cheap land in rural areas can be sold off by the municipality so rental units can be built in areas where newly constructed apartments cant' be sold for the cost of construction. The cynical side of me predicts that this is just a slippery slope to "renovate an apartment and you can do marknadshyror" and then "oh you repainted the apartment? Marknadshyra"

Building in Swedish cities is already tightly regulated though, the city has complete control over what gets built and where (plan- och bygglagen, detaljplanerat område). Exceptionally few new apartments will ever be built in the most attractive areas, because those are already built up. Also, rents for new construction are effectively almost unregulated already (presumtionshyra, it's supposed to be fixed term 15 years but it effectively gets set high and stays high). Marknadshyra as a policy is literally "more money to landlords; gently caress you". Housing is already a speculative asset and increasing the amount of money you can earn from it just makes it even more so. The goal of housing policy should be to de-commodify housing; housing should not be a financial asset, it should only be useful for living in.

The marknadshyraproposal in the drafts is presumtionshyra with, 1. No end date, ever 2. Endless possibilities for adjustment with every new tenant 3.

Housing can be confusing because it's really three assets at once. The land, the property and the monopoly right to use and/or rent. Lands speculative worth ties to the profitability of the others, they cannot be separated from one another. MiddleOne fucked around with this message at 04:45 on Jun 16, 2021 |

So this could lead to people being priced out of apartments, which will solve the apparently decades long housing crisis….somehow? And there’s no guarantee for new hyresrätter being built, it’s just a vague “well maybe they could.” But even then, it could be a situation with sure, new hyresrätter being built but even those new units could be out of financial reach…which ok technically solves the lack of housing, as they never said affordable housing. This just seems like accelerationism towards an even more insane housing crisis.

increasing the profitability of developments to encourage new housing construction is one of the big "solutions" to the present housing shortage. it's nonsense, of course, but it takes more than two minutes to explain why, precisely, it's nonsense so it sticks around as a bugbear of the liberals

Raising rents seems like it will make this worse. How is that difficult E: not disagreeing with you but I’m just floored at how boldface this is.

In Oslo a pretty decent chunk (almost a third) of the people looking to buy homes are able to afford far more than the average home-buyer in the area, so the entire market is pivoting towards this group and this group only, some of which can also afford second homes. Housing is become a luxury commodity and I doubt very much that building more homes or other YIMBY initiatives will actually reduce prices as long as there's a decent pool of people willing and able to invest at the current prices.

My friend moved out of her rental apartment in Frederiksberg (good place in Copenhagen) before covid, and as far as we can tell, the place is still empty because the invest firm wants to renovate the entire building. They're basically just waiting for everyone to move out before moving anyone in. Not only is this going to change good, affordable apartments into something only rich people can afford, it also directly contributes to the housing shortage by having the investment properties standing loving empty.

Yeah, it's kind of hosed up an I honestly think (but have no faith in it actually happening) that there ought to be regulations resticting that. Though to be honest I've benefitted from the real estate market myself, in that I used to own an appartment in Bergen (well, with a loan), though I actually lived there. That appartment ended up appreciating alot in value by the time I moved from there, to the point that I now own, with almost no loans a decent-sized house and property about 30 minutes from Drammen (and within walking distance of where I work). City appartment prizes are completely out of whack, and Oslo obviously is worst of all.

True, but this is normally not enough to get a vote of no-confidence. People from Høyre and AP has had similar scandals and was only reprimanded. It was pretty clearly a big mistake by Berg, but not unprecidented and it is pretty clear that she gets an unprecedented amount of criticisms for most of her actions (for the usual reasons). The main winners from this is Høyre and FrP who got a "win" which their base will like, while I think Rødt made a mistake here. They already have to fight against the preception that they are mostly a protest party, the voters they want to gain will look at this and think "that could have been a national Red/green, what happens if they get that kind of power on a national scale", and might drift back to SV or AP as "safer" votes.

They're also a party that still relies on single issues and appearing principled. So they don't really owe the red-green coalition anything. If they have the opportunity to score a hit on a single issue they should take it imo. The risk of a right wing city government is minimal. I would like to think they would do the same to AP, but I guess it's possible they would not. Scoring a hit against MDG should be a no-brainer though, they're class enemies and competitors for populist votes. thotsky fucked around with this message at 20:46 on Jun 16, 2021 |

R's problem isn't being protest vote - they want to be a protest vote, their current popularity is in large part due to moxnes successfully positioning himself as a sort of tribune of the common man. R's problem here is that berg has a lot of personal sympathy among people who R need to vote for them, and is also very good at the media game. if she can spin this as R being mean to her, it's a pure win for her. meanwhile, R's in a sort of lose-lose position where they basically have to show they have teeth or lose credibility in their tribune styling and becoming more like the other parties. honestly berg couldn't have played this better if she'd tried; this is probably going to end with R bleeding vitally important educated urbanite votes and MDG shoring up support in oslo.

Time for a lot of smug conservative politicians to clutch their pearls in live television harping about the importance of the democracy and that Löfven simply has to resign. (Followed by them forming a government that will gut any and all protections for the working class, not that Löfven wasn’t halfway there already). A government with M, KD, and SD is likely imo, probably L as well. Gonna be an absolute shitshow.
