Liberals Drop Red Line Against Sweden Democrats.
In a move that has sent shockwaves through the Swedish political landscape, the Liberal Party, the smallest partner in the governing coalition, has officially voted to drop its opposition to the nationalist Sweden Democrats. Party leader Simona Mohamsson reportedly issued a govern or quit ultimatum to her ranks. The party has now abandoned its long-held red line against allowing SD into a formal government. The decision comes as the Liberals hit a historic low of 1.3% in recent polls, well below the 4% threshold required to enter Parliament. The u-turn has triggered a crisis within the party, with several prominent Liberal politicians announcing they will leave the party or refuse to stand in the next general election in protest.
