"the Defections from the green Party can lead to the new environmentalism"

"Lillemets: ”Very many see the need for”"

"the MP defectors Schlyter, Mutt, and Lillemets can pull off a new environmentalism."

"the Trio says that there is a strong press that they are going to start a new political party or other organisation that promotes the issues of social and ecological justice."

"– Very many see the need and hear, " says Annika Lillemets, former member of parliament."

"today has ex-members of parliament Carl Schlyter, Valter Mutt and Annika Lillemets announced that they are leaving the green Party. "

"All three have had sole mission in many years, but also been some of the MP's sharpest critics in recent years. "

"the last Straw that got the trio to say their membership was regeringsöverenskommelsen between S, MP, C and L, which they believe will lead to a liberal policy in breach with responsibility for people and the environment."

"All three are clear that they will continue to be engaged. But in what role is not clear."

"According to sources to Aftonbladet, there have been thoughts in the group to start a green utbrytarparti. However, Schlyter, Lillemets and Mutt mean that there are no ready-made plans."

"– There are very many who see the need and hear. And it is clear, when such a settlement is concluded, where there is only one neo-liberal policies that apply and it says that it should fight fascism, but we know that that is the policy which is the breeding ground to it, then it is clear that many desperately yearn for something different, " Lillemets."

"Carl Schlyter, do not think, however, that a new party is the best solution. But he sees a great need to find a channel for people's involvement. "

"I feel a great responsibility to we must capture this level of dissatisfaction from a social, ecological and sustainable direction," he says."

"Schlyter think that drive public opinion and create commitment outside of party politics. He mentions skolstrejkande klimataktivisten Greta Thunberg, as one who succeeded."

"– Greta managed to completely fantastic to create public opinion for the climate. Now, I think the next step will be to create public opinion for climate justice is connected with social justice."

"Contacted in several years."

"Even Valter Mutt see it which, of course, continue to be engaged. In the first place, he expects to now be able to be freer when, for example, he writes opinion articles."

"Can it be the issue of a new party?"

" We have been contacted for several years by people from all sorts of places in Sweden, who think that we need to start with something new. But there is nothing to do in a jiffy, " says Mutt."

"– at the same time, it should be remembered that, in the long run is not sustainable that we are, in country after country, has green and red areas which are not for the policies that their constituents require."
