I willingly admit that I have earlier voted for the Green Party, for the simple reason that they have the best environmental policy, and environmental issues are the most important ones. Unfortunately a sound environmental policy often goes hand in hand with unsound policies in other areas, and this is an international phenomenon. With lunatics such as Per Gahrton in the party, I no longer can vote green with a good conscience. Since more than a year I have been a member of the Liberal Peoples Party.
Peter Eriksson comments on the energy policy that is needed in order for the world not to go down the pan:
–It takes political decisions. We're talking about a gigantic change, rather like when we took the step from an agricultural to an industrial society.He's quite right there. On the other hand he overestimates the previous governments environmental policy in his comment on the "climate package" with increased taxes on carbon dioxide that the Alliance for Sweden has presented:
–There's a difference between moving ahead against the wind, like we did, and standing still when there is no wind, like they do now.There is no reason why a sound environmental policy should be monopolized by foreign political maniacs. Therefore the Alliance for Sweden hereby wishes to do a trade:
For trade: Alliance minister for Opposition policy
We have: A Minister who went astray into the wrong political block. Shows all signs of fitting the Social Democrats like hand in a glove:
- Bribable
- Dismisses the islamist threat with the words"And far away in the mountains of Waziristan sits – so I'm told – a sheik and urges hatefully to violent terror against all the forces of openness, democratization and globalization that threat to undermine the nostalgic world of his closed ideas." (The Swedish Institute of International Affairs, December 19 2006)
- Wants to continue to shower the Palestinians with money
- Gladly makes business with nasty regimes, such as Sudan and Russia
