10th anniversary of the detention of jailed Swedish publisher Gui Minhai in China

Madam President, thank you very much. Gui Minhai has become a symbol of the struggle for freedom of expression. He dared to criticize Communist China. For this, he was kidnapped and imprisoned – an attack on Sweden’s sovereignty and our fundamental values. The utopia of the left – Communist China – is once again showing its true face. Freedom is shattered and dissidents are silenced. Yet the EU continues with its naive globalism and its bowing to Beijing. We are becoming increasingly dependent on this blood-red dictatorship. Our industries, our jobs and our values are being sacrificed on the altar for cheaper trade. This is not just financial madness, it is a betrayal of everything we say we stand for. The EU must stop crawling for China. Trade policy must put Sweden's and Europe's interests first. Do not strengthen a regime that oppresses its people and threatens our freedom. It is time to speak clearly and act with the spine.

Mr President, thank you very much. Lisa in the Netherlands, Liana in Germany, Wilma in Sweden. Their lives were extinguished by men from Muslim countries who should never have been here. After every tragedy, we have the same words from the left. Our thoughts go out to those affected, and then it's quiet. Nothing is done. Where does indifference come from? Would you rather protect your multicultural ideology than those who fall victim to it? No ideal, no ideology and no political goal is more important than security in Europe. No speech, no ceremonies and no slogan can restore security. So my question is: When will Europe change course?

Circularity requirements for vehicle design and management of end-of-life vehicles (debate)

Thank you, Mr President. The Commission's ELV proposal is a threat to our Swedish car industry and car culture. I do not understand how the Commission was able to come up with such an incredibly bad proposal. This should actually end up in the trash where it belongs. Many Swedes love their cars. We repair, renovate and keep older vehicles alive, and that's part of our culture. The Commission wants to make this more difficult and wants to ban functional spare parts, force scrapping and increase the cost for those who want to buy or sell an older vehicle. The EU wants to micromanage hobby mechanics in their garage, screw by screw. Sweden does not need EU rules that stifle car enthusiasts, are counterproductive and waste resources. Scrap this proposal, not our cars.

Outcome of the Conference on the Financing for Development in Seville (debate)

Mr President, thank you very much. Recently, world leaders came together to pledge the largest ever package of contributions to the Third World: $4 trillion a year, with the aim of fighting global poverty. Ambitions are not lacking, but the perception of reality shines with its absence. Unfortunately, this will not help the most vulnerable. The focus should be on clean water, nutrition and care. Instead, the focus is on reducing carbon emissions, in countries where many have no electricity at all, or on quotas and gender equality projects, while mothers cannot even feed their children. We've seen it before. Expensive conferences, fine speeches and promises, but then the money disappears into bureaucracy and corruption and consolidates grant dependency.

Presentation of the Chemicals Package (debate)

Madam President, thank you very much. Yes, this sounded promising: "One substance, one assessment". It sounds like this is supposed to be a simpler system for chemical assessment. But in practice, this is a textbook example of excessive EU bureaucracy. Article 22 introduces new notification requirements that most increase paperwork without improving safety. This particularly affects small businesses. More power will be transferred to the European Chemicals Agency and we will have less transparency. The Commission itself has set itself a target of 25% less reporting burden, but now it is doing just the opposite. That's why I say no to this. No to unnecessary bureaucracy and yes to a competitive chemicals policy. We need to start strengthening competitiveness, not weakening it.

(Start of speech without microphone) ... I met my husband when I was 17 years old. We married when I was 23, of my own free will, two adults. But for many girls in Europe, the reality is completely different. Right now, during the summer, underage girls are married off against their will, perhaps with an older man they've never met. They are children, but they are treated as possessions. In Sweden, a brochure entitled "To you who are married to a child" was even distributed. It was withdrawn after massive criticism, but the fact that it was even developed shows that this problem is not taken seriously. Forced marriage, it's violence, it's a crime and it should never, never be accepted. And when it comes to kids, yes, they're going to school, not getting married.

Electricity grids: the backbone of the EU energy system (debate)

Madam President, thank you very much. The Commission calls the electricity grid the backbone of Europe's energy system. But what helps a spine if the rest of the body is paralyzed due to rampant electricity prices and uncertain supply? Instead of investing in nuclear energy, Brussels paid millions of euros to NGOs to campaign for their interests. It was secret contracts, members were only allowed to read them in monitored rooms, not have any mobile phones. This is called transparency. And Sweden, yes, we pay the price. Our electricity prices are being pushed up by German energy failures because we are stuck in the same grid. If the Commission had invested in nuclear power instead of tax-funded propaganda, we would have had both cleaner air and lower electricity prices. We need cheap, clean, reliable energy, not the manipulation of public opinion with public money.

Stopping the genocide in Gaza: time for EU sanctions (topical debate)

Madam President, thank you very much. The war in Gaza has consequences in Europe as well. We have seen how threats of violence from extreme parts of the Palestine movement now target citizens and politicians, including the Swedish Foreign Minister, as well as MP and my party colleague Jessica Stegrud. These threats pose a serious risk to our democracy. There is no genocide going on. Hamas is responsible for the suffering of civilians in Gaza by using civilians as human shields. UNWRA, funded by our tax funds, has links to terrorism and should be dismantled. Instead, other appropriate organisations should be used. whereas several UNWRA employees have participated in Hamas attacks on 7 October, and their schools are being used to spread antisemitism; In order to have peace and a secure future for both Israelis and Palestinians, we must stop resources for Hamas and UNWRA.

European Steel and Metals Action Plan (debate)

Madam President, I would like to thank you for your The steel and metal industry is the backbone of our industrial competitiveness. But instead of creating the conditions, the left is pushing for even more climate and environmental regulations, higher energy prices and even more bureaucracy. We don't need new visions. We need reality-based visions. We must be self-sufficient in critical materials, otherwise we risk being out-competed by China. We must have low energy prices, reasonable climate targets and we must ensure that we are self-sufficient. We don't need new climate targets that knock out our industry before there are any alternatives. Yes, green steel can be great, but it has to be competitive. We have seen how it has gone with various political projects, where you have pumped in lots of tax money that later turns out to go up in smoke. We need to focus on technology neutrality. We need to reduce the regulatory burden. That way we can be competitive.

Madam President, I would like to thank you for your Billions in pension savings, invested in Northvolt – and now they are gone. The Social Democrats have ridiculed critics and said that Northvolt is a green future story. They also have close ties to Northvolt. Sossarna has provided credit guarantees, and they have gone from government positions to roles linked to the company. Even at the European level, the Social Democrats have a serious conflict of interest. Such as Thomas Östros who pushed through credit guarantees of SEK 10 billion to Northvolt as Vice President of the European Investment Bank. Those responsible, both in Sweden and in the EU, must be held accountable for the total disrespect to our taxpayers. It would be welcome if those who systematically blow our Swedish pensioners on lottery tickets and green transitions could, for once, pay back that money. For every penny wasted is a theft.

Common data platform on chemicals, establishing a monitoring and outlook framework for chemicals (short presentation)

Madam President, I would like to thank you for your The EU Chemicals Data Platform could be a platform that would have provided transparency, better availability of data and less duplication. But what the proposal looks like now – what has been worked out together with the EPP, the Left and the Greens – actually looks like a bureaucratic nightmare, with companies being forced to report every study commissioned, even if it will be submitted later. This is a lot of unnecessary reporting with no security benefit. Those who will be affected are, in particular, small businesses, innovations that will be slowed down and jobs that will be threatened. The EU often talks about the need to reduce the regulatory burden, but it does exactly the opposite. The EU must stop believing that more bureaucracy and more regulatory burden increases prosperity. In fact, it is our companies and our workers that increase our prosperity.

Roadmap for Women`s Rights (debate)

Mr President, thank you very much. Islamization, oppression of honour, gang terror and the destructive women's culture that follows in the footsteps of mass immigration. This is the real threat to women's rights. The Left does not want to talk about this, but rather discusses gender perspectives and pronouns. Today's so-called feminists live in a pretend world where it is claimed that men can get pregnant. The women's struggle today; It is about security, law and order. It is about stopping the migration policy that has destroyed our country. My mother grew up in a safer country than I did. But I grew up in a safer country than my teenage daughter grows up today. To break the trend, we must make the decisions that the establishment has not dared. Sweden should be a country where women can feel safe – not a country that bows to honour culture, Islamism and gang violence. That's why we're going to send criminal illegal migrants home.

Cutting red tape and simplifying business in the EU: the first Omnibus proposals (debate)

Madam President, thank you very much. In uncertain times, when ordinary families and businesses are really working to bring the economy together, then the very last thing we should do is to stifle growth. But that is exactly what was done last term in this House. Force companies to pay millions to meet EU sustainability requirements. Money that could have been used to hire more people. New technology. These are things that actually increase competitiveness. And of course it sounds good when the EPP says that it wants to reduce the reporting burden by 25%. But if more than a thousand data requirements have been introduced, it is not enough to abolish a quarter. If Europe is to be competitive again, then we must do the same as Argentina. Develop the chainsaw and start cutting red tape, the planned economy and freeing the economy from unnecessary harmful EU regulations.

The need to address urgent labour shortages and ensure quality jobs in the health care sector (debate)

Mr President, I would like to thank you. The Sweden Democrats oppose irresponsible imports of low-wage labour into the EU. It is not, as some believe, about companies not being able to employ excellence, but above all about wanting to squeeze wages. This strikes out Swedish, European workforce and affects our workers. It will simply be a backdoor to benefit dependency, and it will increase the shadow society we have in Sweden today and crime. We have already seen what high migration has done in Sweden. At the same time, there are many people in Sweden today who have no work to do. Therefore, we think it is much better to put the measures there: Make sure that you have targeted measures, make it worthwhile to go to work. We must also ensure that labour migration does not become the new asylum migration to Europe.

Escalation of gang violence in Sweden and strengthening the fight against organised crime (debate)

Mr President, I would like to thank you. My parents grew up in one of the safest countries in the world, but my children won't be able to do that. The crime we see in Sweden did not arise as some kind of weather phenomenon or because we suddenly had inadequate schools or inadequate social services. No, it is because the left has pursued a failed policy. This is an imported problem, and statistics clearly show that people of foreign origin are overrepresented in crime statistics. When the consequences could no longer be missed, the Social Democrats came and said "We didn't see it coming". But those of us who saw it coming have been labeled xenophobic, and every effort has been made to silence us in the debate. Letting the Social Democrats solve the problems is like letting the pyromaniac take care of fire safety. If you refuse to see the cause, you can't solve them either.

Escalation of gang violence in Sweden and strengthening the fight against organised crime (debate)

I'm a little curious how the Green Party wants to solve these problems. Do you really think that better schools, better social services and that we talk a little nicer with each other will solve these problems? The Green Party has been one of the parties that has wanted the most generous migration policy. Do you still not see that there is any connection between crime and the generous migration policy that we have had in Sweden? Do you still support the generous migration policy with open borders?

One-minute speeches on matters of political importance

Madam President, thank you very much. It's not often that my 14-year-old daughter thinks the news is really interesting. But during the Christmas season, she asked me: How can adults tolerate what we have seen in the UK? Large-scale cover-up of sexual offences against young girls. Why didn't the parents do anything?" she asked. Some tried, but the authorities didn't listen. The children were sacrificed for the comfort and careers of those responsible. The grooming scandal should have been on the agenda this week, because the reluctance to talk about this type of problem is not unique. For decades, immigrants' over-representation in sexual crimes has been silenced by the media. In Sweden, the media long covered up the molestation of Swedish girls at the "We are Stockholm" festival. A free and open debate – although some find facts uncomfortable – is useful and we need it, because it is the first step.

Powering Europe’s future - advancing the fusion industry for energy independence and innovation (debate)

Madam President, thank you very much. Dismantling fully functional electricity production before we have anything else working in place simply means missing out on all climate goals. It also harms industry, the economy and our prosperity. If you really want to reduce emissions and have a secure electricity supply, then we need all types of nuclear power but also potential future fission. Our civilization is based on access to energy. It is very positive to research new technologies, but it is very important that these new technologies are in place and above all work, before closing down existing ones. Look at Germany. There they shut down existing nuclear power plants, and it was hailed by many Swedish parties. What did it lead to? Well, the anti-nuclear policy only benefited Russia and meant that we increased emissions and damaged the EU. Now we see how companies move outside the EU because of the high energy prices.

Heat record year 2024 - the need for climate action to fight global warming (debate)

In fact, I think our party is one of the few parties that actually has realistic suggestions on how we should do this. You can't just pump in an incredible amount of money and think that everything will work out. We must have development, innovation, otherwise we have no money to invest in climate work. We have to have energy. We have to have nuclear power. We need to balance innovation, technology development. So we can have an effective climate policy that also benefits our economy.

Heat record year 2024 - the need for climate action to fight global warming (debate)

Of course we need to decrease emissions, I said that, of course it's important. But we need to do that by innovation, not where they shut down all the industries and move them to other parts of the world – that's not a solution. Or close the nuclear power. Look what happened in Germany. It will not save the planet or EU. We need to focus on both innovation and competitiveness to be able to have a climate policy. And I think it is important to balance these two to have an effective policy.

Heat record year 2024 - the need for climate action to fight global warming (debate)

Mr President, thank you very much. We are here to debate the 2024 heat record and the need for climate action. I do not question that it is getting warmer or that climate action is needed. However, the EU is not responsible for the largest emissions. So does Communist China, which is also the big winner of our climate policy. My Green, Socialist and Centre Party colleagues in this House do not understand that Europe cannot save the world by dismantling its industry and making life difficult for ordinary people. As a result of your policies, jobs are moving outside Europe, and emissions are not disappearing either – they are only moving to other parts of the world. Instead of stifling our industry, we need to cut down on unnecessary EU bureaucracy and invest in innovation. If we look at history, it is precisely technology development that has contributed the most to emission reductions, and we desperately need a realistic climate policy. The left's anxiety, panic and doomsday prophecies bring my thoughts to the flagellants of the Middle Ages; those who whipped themselves bloody in the streets to get rid of the plague, but in fact became part of the spread of infection.
