💰 Sweden’s Fiscal Policy Council issued its toughest criticism yet of the government’s economic policy

They warn that borrowing for defense while cutting taxes could increase deficits and push costs onto future generations.

The government says Sweden can afford it.
The opposition says it’s risky and short-sighted.

📊 In the 2026 budget:
✅ Income tax cuts cost 21 billion SEK per year
✅ Halved food VAT will cost another 21 billion SEK
✅ Lower employer fees for young people cost 6 billion SEK

Is this smart strategy or dangerous timing?

🇸🇪🎙️ It’s happening: my podcast is officially live 🤩

LikeSweden: Beyond the Postcard

This first episode is about the proposed changes to Swedish citizenship rules, what they could mean in real life for different groups of people, and where I personally stand on it.

It is a proper breakdown, with context, examples, and the uncomfortable parts people keep skipping (or, just don’t think about them).

Want the link? Comment PASSPORT and I’ll DM it to you 👇
…or find it on Spotify (other apps soon!)

And tell me: should citizenship rules be stricter, or just… smarter?

😳 POV: You studied Swedish for 6 months…

…and then someone hits you with a 120 km/h monologue like they’re auditioning for Eminem.

You: “Jaha… ja… precis…”�Your brain: buffering… buffering… 🧠💥

Bonus points if you start smiling politely and nodding like you understood a single syllable.

👇 What’s your emergency phrase in Sweden?�A) “Förlåt, kan du prata lite långsammare?”�B) “Okej 😃” (and hope for the best)�C) “Jag pratar bara lite svenska…” (after speaking fluent Swedish 10 seconds ago)

💼 More foreign-born people are working in Sweden and the distance to Swedish-born is getting smaller.

What’s behind it?
✅ Post-pandemic hiring picked up, especially in service-heavy sectors
✅ Time matters: people who arrived around 2015 have now had years to settle in
✅ Sweden’s job market has high skill requirements, so progress often shows up later, not instantly

📍 The difference isn’t the same everywhere:
Smaller in the north, bigger in the south.

🇪🇺 Also interesting: foreign-born employment in Sweden is generally higher than the EU average, but the gap between groups is still larger here than in many EU countries.

🚗 Sweden may change the driving license rules

Right now, your theory test is only valid for 4 months for a B license. If you can’t book a driving test in time, you may have to do the theory test again.

Now Transportstyrelsen wants to extend it to 1 year, to reduce stress and make it work like other license types.

📆 If approved, it could start as early as August.

🇸🇪 Record applications for Sweden’s new return grant

In just one month, 272 people applied for the newly increased “återvandringsbidraget”. It is more than in all of 2025.
💰 350,000 SEK per adult�👶 25,000 SEK per child

But so far not a single application has been approved ❌

Most rejections were due to:�✅ Wrong residence status�✅ Debts with Kronofogden or CSN

The reform only started on January 1, 2026. The government says it’s too early to draw conclusions.
