After the election, Borås is governed by Mitt-S cooperation, which includes the Social Democrats, the Environment Party, the Center and the Liberals. Since the beginning of June, it has risen sharply around the largest party in the constellation.
Top management and culture of silenceThe criticism against the Social Democrats has, among other things, been about top government, clandestine democracy and culture of silence. Former municipal councilor Lena Palmén (S) testified that she received signals that work was underway to remove the municipal council Malin Carlsson (S).
At the time, the criticism was directed at, among other things, the chair of the municipal council Ulf Olsson (S). He then chose not to comment on the criticism of SVT.
VictimizationThe latest tour of the Social Democrats concerns the Malin Carlsson Municipal Council. In a whistle-blower investigation conducted by the municipality, there are allegations that Malin Carlsson exposed his political secretary for abusive discrimination. The report was then handed over to the Social Democrats. Late Monday night, Borås workers' municipality decided that they lacked confidence in Malin Carlsson.
Malin Carlsson was never heard in the municipality's investigation. In a text message to SVT, she announces that she is unable to do any interview. Malin Carlsson says that she is on sick leave due to high blood pressure, which she has suffered after being subjected to great pressure and stress over the past year.
In the clip above, the municipal councilors Anna Svalander (L) and Kerstin Hermansson (C) tell how they look at the cooperation with the Social Democrats, the atmosphere in the City Hall and how the S crisis can affect confidence in politics.
