A more merciless sawing is not possible to imagine

"A more merciless sawing is not possible to imagine"

"Ann-Sofie Hermansson (S), after an infected conflict"

"the deposition of Ann-Sofie Hermansson (S) in Gothenburg, lack of knowledge, unprecedented in a Swedish parliamentary party."

"Skoningslösheten and the incompetence is so monumental that it becomes incomprehensible."

"On Sunday gathered that the social democrats in Gothenburg to implement something that they'll never forget."

"At an extra local party congress in the People's house, they would assigned, or save the left, alderman Ann-Sofie ”the Couch” Hermansson as a group leader in the municipal council in Gothenburg."

"The extraordinary meeting was the culmination of something that some people claim been going on since the ”Couch” became councillor and Socialist born in Gothenburg three years ago."

"Hermansson was as expected away at this marvellous meeting. Her defeat was crushing. 197 was that they wanted, Ann-Sofie Hermansson, was deposed. The 49 who wished that she would retain the mission was badly beaten on the fingers."

"What lies behind the deep conflict among the social democrats in Gothenburg is shrouded in mist. But the most often mentioned is the Hermanssons management style that is widely perceived brusque."

"I would say that it basically is about something entirely different. Namely, Correspondingly, the sharp decline in the kingdom's second city."

"In the elections of 2006, 36 per cent of the people of gothenburg their vote to the social democrats. In the last election had the support plummeted by almost 16 percentage points to 20.5 percent. During the same period, the party has declined less than half as much, almost seven percentage points, at the national level."

"the Crisis for the social democrats, and other established parties in Gothenburg, sweden, is illustrated not only by the väljarraset. But also to the newly formed the Democrats trick just over 17 per cent of the votes in the municipal elections in the city. The sawing of the political establishment must regard as monumental."

"When it goes bad for the party in the elections, there is always a desire to designate a scapegoat, the one who did everything wrong and that is to take on the collective failure. ”The couch” had no plans to play the role. "

"But maybe it had been easier for her personally to do it when the signals of dissatisfaction with her not slowed down but rather increased in strength. Now she did not, and was deposed in the most brutally public manner seen in a long time."

"Gothenburg is not the only municipality where the social democrats have a problem. On the national level fell, the party's share of votes by just over three percentage points to 27.6 per cent in the municipal elections. It is the first time in ages that the party made a worse choice of municipal than national."

"But there is also a deep personkonflikt with the roots of Göran Johansson, Gothenburg's now deceased strongman. For many years he was the only one needed to bother about in Gothenburg."

"Chairman of the partidistriktet, which deposed Hermansson, Anna Johansson. She is George's daughter and the former minister of infrastructure who, forced to leave the government in the summer of 2017."

the "”Couch” Hermansson and Anna Johansson described, earlier is best to add, good friends. Hermansson was also a close associate to Göran Johansson for a number of years."

"Now these, Göran Johansson-adepts, therefore, stood on either side of the deepest local conflict in Swedish politics for many years. And none of them depart with a victory."

"Anna won in and of themselves the dirty tug-of-war on the Hermanssons political future. But her own look is also not particularly bright. She will be leaving the partidistriktets president later in the spring."

"For an outsider, it is incomprehensible that a conflict may degenerate in the way that it is done in Gothenburg. It suggests a bad play that defies all description."

"Prior to Sunday's meeting was handed out a list of the offences that Ann-Sofie Hermansson is considered to be responsible for to kongressombuden. The action, unprecedented in its brutal ruthlessness. What was it that got the better of it? Nothing, absolutely nothing."

"and Now, Gothenburg appoint new leaders. The queue of aspirants will be probably not very long."

"10 February: the Socialists' distriktsstyrelse, with, among others, Ann-Sofie Hermansson on site, have the meeting on the situation in the town hall. In the evening, the board makes the decision to trust Hermansson as the leader is gone."

"11 February: Anna Johansson, chairman of the board of directors, informs Hermansson of the decision and avgångskravet. A few hours later call Hermansson to the press conference. Also, Johansson is a snabbinkallad press conference. On the same day announced an additional distriktskongress on 3 march."

"February 12: the Next avgångskrav, this time from the kommunfullmäktigegruppen, will."

"13 February: Fullmäktigegruppen meeting and allocates Ann-Sofie Hermansson as a team leader. Marina Johansson is selected as a temporary group leader."

"14 February: Anna Johansson announces she will resign at the annual congress in april, a decision which according to her was taken already a year ago."

"February 15: Hermansson appeal fullmäktigegruppens decision to the worker's party central."

"February 27: the Powers give fullmäktigegruppen right, the decision to dismiss Hermansson as the leader broke not against the bylaws."

"march 3: Extrakongressen vote to unseat Ann-Sofie Hermansson. A new leader will be elected eventually; until then, is expected to Marina Johansson to take over, even in municipal government."
