Malin Sjöberg Högrell and Jennie Claesson of Uppsala's Liberals will not seek re-election and are stepping down from leadership roles after the party opened to cooperation with the Sweden Democrats. The moves come after an extraordinary congress where Simona Mohamsson retained her position as party leader.
