Moderates instructed to avoid specific terms at meeting

More than 2,000 moderates are gathering in Stockholm to discuss election strategies. The party emphasizes message discipline with an internal list of words to avoid.

The meeting is taking place in the Swedish capital ahead of this fall's election. Participants are training to use consistent messages that highlight the party's efforts.

According to an internal word list seen by Expressen, members should avoid terms such as Tidö, pensionärer and buset. Instead, phrases like samarbetspartierna and vänsterpartierna are recommended.

The party also encourages positive phrases such as ansträngning ska löna sig. The focus is on steering clear of sensitive concepts in communications.
