New Future
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ny Framtid , abbreviated NYF (New Future) is a eurosceptic political party in Sweden. It was founded before the 1994 parliamentary elections in an attempt to prevent Sweden from joining the European Union. After Sweden joined the EU, the party changed its political position and declared their goal to get Sweden to leave the EU, and instead creating a deeper co-operation with Norway and Finland, in a movement reminiscent of Scandinavism. In the 2002 parliamentary elections it received 9337 votes, making it the third largest party outside of the Swedish parliament.
