“We bet on the sport even without the S-minister”

“the social democrats: we do not have any clear policies for Idrottssverige is not true”

“This is an opinion piece. It is the writer who stands for the views that are put forward in the text, not Against.”

“the DEBATE. The other day, filled the Globe with some of our biggest sports stars, leaders, and future idrottshjältar and for the first time, I, too, had the privilege of visiting the Swedish sports gala. “

“A splendid evening in many ways and with a worthy winner, but it is one that stuck the most for the evening at the gala is neither prisutdelarnas presentations, the winners or their speech. “

“the Feeling that is left today is the community that the sport creates, and how dependent it is of live sporting movement. A sporting movement that must be present in the whole country to give people the right to an active sporting life. A sporting movement that can only live if we, the politicians, give them conditions to work. “

“There have been certain voices within the movement since regeringsförklaringen and the presentation of our new ministers that we, as Socialists, neither has any interest in sport or the longer one apparently policy for the sport. Now, let me clearly point out that this is not the case!”

“We social democrats have a great interest in sport and the sports movement. We have people at all levels; in government, in parliament, in our regions, and municipalities with authentic sports hobbies. People who are active in sports clubs, which sits in the boards, working as a leader, practitioner, who put motions and drives clear policies for a stronger Idrottssverige. “

“Just because we don’t have a socialist minister who has responsibility for the issues, this does not mean that we as a party put us flat facing the sport’s great challenges, or who see the importance sport has for a cohesive Sweden. “

“Sport is a bridge-builder and a social glue because it creates a community between people who otherwise would not have met each other. Sport is an economic engine because it creates jobs and economic growth. Sport creates better public health. Sport creates a positive impact for society and the sports society has become a central concept for both the sports movement and the us politicians. “

“the Sport also provides a democratic education because many are taking their first leadership or board positions in sport. But, above all, is the sport a bubbly person who creates extremely a lot of pleasure and well-being, both for the practitioners and the spectators.”

“For us social democrats, is a free and independent sporting movement is an important part of the Swedish model. In a democratic society is social movements, with many active members, a great asset, both today and in the future. The work that takes place in clubs and associations based on a sense of belonging, responsibility and community. “

“It is also in the work that the members learn about föreningskunskap and how democracy works. Everyone gets to express their opinion and decisions rests on the will of the members. For children and young people in sport democratic education is especially significant, because it is a way to early to learn how the basic democratic rules of the game works.”

“the State, as well as the role of the municipalities is to ensure that the sporting community has good conditions and the opportunity to conduct their business and to be able to offer sport for all. Therefore, we need a more open and deep dialogue between the government, parliament, local authorities and the sports movement on how we should be able to take care of today’s and tomorrow’s challenges.”

“For that we must have a strong sporting movement with a great variety, there must be plenty of buildings where you can train and compete. In many places in Sweden, particularly in the larger cities, there is a lack of idrottslokaler, halls and facilities. Elsewhere in the country, it may be that there is a need for extensive renovation work. “

“the Lack of opportunity for sportsmen and sportswomen not only leads to ill health, it also increases the risk that young people will end up wrong in life. Here, we need to do more. And this will be one of the biggest issues during this term of office for us idrottspolitiker. “

“I am aware that there is both an internal and external job ahead of me waiting, which I have to get up idrottsfrågorna higher on the agenda in order to be able to implement some of the changes in the day among other things, are barriers for new halls and facilities. “

“Among other things, we perhaps need reviewing Planning’s role, where perhaps they should get the mandate to be both bidragsfördelande and knowledge hub in order to get to the new and modern facilities. This then it must be easy and tempting to move wherever you live in the country. “

“in Addition to this, we also need to consider a review of the planning and building act, so as to not have the ability to an active life or organized sport disappears in the large residential building or in the processes when new residential areas are planned. “

“We social democrats believe in a vibrant sporting movement, and throughout the country. An independent and free sporting movement that gives people the chance to actively life, all of life. Where the sport is not only a part of the society but also shape it. “

“Sport is a great social force that we really need to take on the Swedish model of sport is a success story. It does not mean that there are parts of it that can be even better. It does not mean that, together, we do not need to do even more. “

“We Socialists have and will always uphold a strong idrottssverige and I will do my utmost to keep alive in the questions, with or without your own S-minister. “
