Sten Christer Andersson
Sten Christer Andersson (February 28, 1943 - August 16, 2010) was a Swedish politician and Member of Parliament in the Riksdag. Andersson was a shipyard worker and trade unionist by profession, and initially a member of the Swedish Social Democrats before joining the Moderate Party. In 1983, Andersson was elected to the Riksdag for the Moderates. In the 1980s, Andersson became known for being outspoken against the immigration policy in Sweden and for his support for the referendum in Sjöbo Municipality which called for a ban on the Municipality accepting any more refugees and led to the refugee controversy in Sjöbo. Due to criticism from within the Moderates, Andersson left the party in 2001 and sat as an independent in the Riksdag. In 2002, he joined the right-wing nationalist Sweden Democrats (SD) party and unsuccessfully ran for the party in the 2002 Swedish general election in which the SD did not get enough votes to qualify for representation. In 2006, he was elected to th ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Ilmar Reepalu
Ilmar Reepalu (born 11 October 1943) is an Estonian-born Swedish Social Democrat politician who was the 17th chairman of the municipal board in Malmö from 1994 to 2013.

Refugee Controversy In Sjöbo
The refugee controversy in Sjöbo, Sweden are the surrounding events of the 1988 referendum that banned Sjöbo Municipality from admitting foreign refugees. In 1987, despite opposition and demonstrations, local Centre Party politician Sven-Olle Olsson (1929–2005), who was Sjöbo's municipal commissioner at the time, was successful in gaining the support of the Sjöbo municipal assembly to hold a referendum to decide if Sjöbo should ban the acceptance of foreign refugees. The controversial referendum passed with a 67.4% majority for the ban in 1988, gaining Olsson and Sjöbo much publicity in the Swedish media. The outcome was heavily criticized by Swedish media and politicians (including then-Prime Minister Ingvar Carlsson). Olsson was in turn expelled from the Centre Party following the referendum which led to the forming of the nationalist Sjöbo Party (Swedish: Sjöbopartiet) in March 1991. In the municipal elections the same year, the party received 31% of the votes ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
