The Swedish Liberals re-elected Simona Mohamsson as party leader by a narrow majority in a four-hour digital extraordinary congress marred by severe technical issues. The vote confirms the party's new policy to include SD in a potential Tidö government. Several members are resigning in protest.
Göran Greider gave a sharply critical May Day speech in Lindberghallen in Djurås, Gagnef. He mocked the government and warned against a Tidö victory in the September 13, 2026 election. The speech emphasized socialism, welfare, and peace.
