The Swedish 'Shadow Cabinet'

I am not a fan of Swedish politics; let us put it that way.

However, the composition of the Social Democrat's 'Shadow Cabinet' is at an all time low for Scania. There is absolutely no real Scanians in the cabinet, despite the fact that the population in Scania consitutes about 15% of the total population in Sweden!

Party Secretary Ibrahim Baylan says "All parts of the country cannot be represented", and thus totally disregards the legacy of the Social Democratic Movement which originated in Scania. The full power consolidation to middle Sweden is therefore completed.

In the words of Lilly: "Funny enough there was room for plenty of people from Stockholm".

Who is going to fill the void in Scania then when The Social Democrats have given up? The Sweden Democrats, also originating from Scania? God forbid!

Some other less funny facts are the general education level and experience from the real world of these people (as far as I can determine from official sites such as riksdagen.se and socialdemokraterna.se).

Without higher education and no, or limited, work experience outside politics
Mona Sahlin (s) Stockholm County, Seat 5
Carin Jämtin (s)
Anneli Hulthén (s)
Veronica Palm (s) Stockholm Municipality, Seat 207
Sven-Erik Österberg (s) Västmanland County, Seat 234

With higher education but no, or limited, work experience outside politics
Leif Pagrotsky (s) Göteborg Municipality, Seat 261
Lena Hallengren (s) Kalmar County, Seat 151
Thomas Östros (s) Uppsala County, Seat 178
Ylva Johansson (s) Skåne County North and East, Seat 16 (why she is sitting on a Scanian mandate is a mystery. She is definitely not Scanian.)
Urban Ahlin (s) Västra Götaland County East, Seat 71

With higher education and most work experience outside politics
Thomas Bodström (s) Örebro County, Seat 269

A party which does not know its history, and stay true to its values does not have a future.
