It's entitled ”När ska vi stockholmare få tid att älska och skratta?”, and it's main line is: Socialdemokraterna vill bygga in kollektiva vardagstjänster i SL:s lokaler... Stockholmarnas värdefulla tid ska stå i fokus.
This basically concerns their proposition to introduce services through the local transport system to allow regular Stockholmers to make the most of their time. Among some potentially feasible suggestions (?), these were my two favourites:
- Drop your laundry off at the metro in the morning and pick it up later on the way home.
- 'Butler-like services' can assist you with mundane necessities such as parking your car.

My first reaction was a little guffaw and a sense of disbelief: we stockholmers love being independant, why would anyone agree to this? Butlers on the metro? How is this in any way realistic? Is this how Socialdemokraterna want to win these elections?! How lazy are these people anyway? WTF? But it is a changing world, our unemployment rate of roughly 9% certainly does need a makeover, and really who knows what will happen.
I do know however that I'll definitely be following these elections much closer than last time around. I can finally vote in Sweden afterall!
There's a funny short video too for anyone who understands Swedish and wants to giggle about this.
That is all.
Oh and P.S. Yes I know this has little or nothing to do with Giddy in London City, but a) This is simply in the programme seeing as I have yet to leave Stockholm, and b) I'm allowed to ramble, so there.

yeaay i can finally vote too! not that i have a clue as to who i'm voting for but still :P ps. love the fresh prince picture hahaha oh the memories!
