LO-criticism of the Löfvens start: Strong right-wing politics

"LO-criticism of the Löfvens start: ”Strong right-wing politics”"

"ÖREBRO. Many in the labour movement was critical of the agreement Stefan Leaves made with Annie Lööf and Jan Björklund in January."

"And according to the union, it has become worse since then."

"– so long as it's sharp right-wing politics we see coming out of the agreement, says LO's president, Karl-Petter Thorwaldsson."

"A reluctant trade union gave the green light to the Januariavtal as Stefan Löfven (S) made with the Centre party, the Liberals and the Greens to secure government."

"You did it despite the fact that in the agreement there were several issues that went contrary to what the LO run around. "

"When the Socialists gathered for a congress in Örebro, sweden, is the LO president Karl-Petter Thorwaldsson is still very critical of parts of the agreement, just as he was in January."

"– There is a great concern I S that it has sold out much of what we stand for in the 73-point program. Not least when it comes to redistribution and taxes. "

"– that is Why it is important with such a congress, the signal to the party leadership will be that they must be careful about what their constituents think. Their constituents stand to the left of this program agreed on."

"He says that the first few months, pointed even more in the wrong direction. LO is among other things, critical of the fact that most of the tax cuts are made next year do not reach their members."

"– which has come out of the negotiations and investigations are inclined not to, that it would be easier for us in the tray like it. So far it's sharp right-wing politics we see coming out of the agreement. We need to continue to battle against in order to get a better balance in policy."

"Despite the criticisms gave all the unions their support to the Leaves when he, in January accepted the agreement with C, and L. You, justified the support with this option, an M-led government, had been worse. "

" I think the vast majority of LO members and voters agree with us, that after four months of chaos was damn good, Stefan Löfven got the mandate to rule. But it does not mean that we in LO gives the free pass on how politics should be run, " says Thorwaldsson."

"LO will not be silent"

"LO-the base looks in front of the two red line for the tray during its term of office. It is for the first point in the agreement relating to the changed labour law. A one-sided deterioration of wage and salary earners will not be accepted by the unions, " he says."

"Also requires that more money be pumped in order to secure the future of pensions."

"What can you do if you think the government goes too far?"
