Swexit? Swedish politician says his country will be next to ditch European Union
Peter Lundgren – a right-wing politician of the Sweden Democrats party who hailed Article 50 “a breath of fresh air” – says his homeland is next in line for its very own “Swexit”.Speaking to The Express, Mr Lundgren said: “The British people have shown the rest of Europe it’s possible to leave. “At last we have a breath of fresh air. “That’s why I believe that we will be the biggest party in the next year’s election in Sweden and we will also push the demand for having a renegotiation of the trade agreements with the European Union, for the membership. “And we will also put it up to a referendum where people will have their say and then I’m hopeful that we also can follow Britain’s example.” A YouGov poll has shown that 39% of Swedes wish to leave the EU, and an election is to be held in September.
