A heated debate unfolded in SVT's Aktuellt between migration minister Johan Forssell (M) and Annika Hirvonen (MP) on deportations of teenagers raised in Sweden. The issue of separating 18-year-olds from their families sparked strong reactions, as the opposition calls for legal changes. The government is considering transitional rules for young people dependent on their parents.
Sweden faces an acute shortage of care workers in elderly care, needing 65,600 more care assistants and assistant nurses by 2033. Care assistant Sandra Vilppala criticizes the Tidöre government for deporting established foreign labor while raising wage requirements, worsening the crisis. She demands either letting people stay in the country or raising wages to attract staff.
