- These are two very important questions when it comes to how Trelleborg will develop over a long period of time in the future, says Axel Bengtsson, one of the founders of Vårt Söderslätt.
The party aims to become the largest in Trelleborg after the 2022 election and several of the representatives have a background in various protest movements against the prison and the ring road.
- Our main opponents are the established parties who all agree to implement these plans, but we know that there is dissatisfaction within many parties and among their voters.
Was it a difficult decision to start a party?
- No, it has not been.
If you want to change something, you must be prepared to take responsibility.
It is possible to stand by and be an opinion leader, but if you want to change something, a mandate in the municipal council is required.
What is your political experience?
- We are not politicians from the beginning, but it can be a strength.
You can learn the political processes, but we come in with fresh eyes and can make wise decisions.
