STOCKHOLM, June 15 (Reuters) - Sweden’s parliament passed a law on Monday allowing authorities to revoke immigrants’ residency permits based on bad behaviour, ​such as having unpaid debts, doing undeclared work or ‌links to extremist organisations.

    links to extremist organisations

    Which will shortly be defined as “organizations whose views conflict with the ruling class”.

      Our right wingers already want to fund investigations into finding out whats making socialist ideals rise. So were basically already there tbh. A large portion of socialist voters are immigrants, no wonder the right wing government would want to target them.

          Swedish right wing is center left in international politics. Even the fucking Sweden Democrats have policies that align with the old guard Social Democrats (left wing) on social issues. The main difference is that the Sweden Democrats are racist fuckers.

            Just because the overton window is constantly shifting to the right doesn’t make the parties less right wing. A party can be socially “left” (in very heavy quotation marks) and still rasict as fuck. They might want a social security net for “their” people but not the outsiders for exmple

              They always project plans onto others before enacting. So, social credit scores.

                It was just last year that the party leadership apologized for their ties to actual neo-Nazis. If they were any more right-wing they’d be invading Poland.

    The law, which covers pending permits but also retroactively already granted permits, is part of a wider tightening of immigration rules by the right-wing government and its support party, the nationalist Sweden Democrats […]

    There, all you need to know.
