[edit] Social liberal?

Wouldn't it more accurate to call it just 'centrist'? Especially as FP-L is labelled social liberal, may be Centre party could be just centrist? --Constanz - Talk 14:02, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Immigration?

I think that the whole chapter of 'Immigration' in one way or another misinterprets the sydsvenskan article. 1) its not really right to divide Swedish parties in pro- or anti-Immigration. There are certainly some explicit anti-Immigration outfits, but they are outside of the political mainstream. 2) Sweden doesn't have a 'green card' system, the (c) proposal is intended to introduce such a scheme on Canadian model. --Soman 10:47, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Describing ideology

The Centre Party describes its ideology on this page on its website [1] (with my translation in italics, my emphasis):

Alla människors lika värde och rättigheter är grunden för Centerpartiets politik. Vi är ett grönt socialliberalt parti. Det yttersta målet är att var och en ska kunna växa som människa och ha möjlighet att förverkliga sina drömmar. Ansvar för varandra och för naturen ska vara vägledande när samhället formas.

Every person's equal value and rights are the basis of the Centre Party's policy. We are a green social liberal party. The final goal is that everyone shall be able to grow as a person and have the opportunity to make their dreams real. Responsibility for each other and for nature should guide the forming of society.

I think that the party's own view should be integrated into the introduction to the article, and I have tried to do that without deleting anything. Please feel free to improve on my effort. Tamino 20:34, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
