Catharina Bråkenheim (S), chairman of the municipal board in Tjörn

What do you think of the no-confidence motion?

- It is sad, deplorable and irresponsible.

You destroy so much for the country.

We are fighting the pandemic in the municipalities and there is only one year left until the election.

But in that case should not S have gone V to meet?

- It is difficult to say, if you have settled in the January agreement, you should keep it.

You have to stick to what you have said.

Should Stefan Löfven announce a by-election immediately?

- There are both advantages and disadvantages to it.

With an extra election, there will be quick jerks and the people will have their say.

We need to get rid of clutter.

The risk is that extra choices result in a new cow trade and that it will be difficult to agree anyway.

Paul Åkerlund (S), chairman of the municipal board in Trollhättan

How do you see the situation?

- This is of course sad and I have a hard time understanding how to throw the country out in this situation.

There is no ready-made proposal.

Should Löfven have called for a by-election but once?

- No, it is wise to investigate the possibilities first.

Could he have handled this in a different way?

- I think he does his best.

Maybe another solution can be found.

Michael Karlsson (S), chairman of the municipal board in Åmål

- I think it's sad that it has become like this in an exceptional situation, not least in the pandemic.

Should S go V to meet about the rents?

- The parliamentary situation is as it is.

We have the January agreement.

It's easy to sit in the stands and I have no knowledge of the game behind it.

I trust the Prime Minister's judgment.

Should Löfven announce a by-election immediately?

- No, I have a week on me.

I think there will be a solution, I do not think it will be a by-election.
