HIGH PROFILE MODERATE PARTY LEADER MAY QUIT OVER FRA ACT

Niklas Wykman, chairman of the Moderate Party's youth league, MUF, was one of the staunchest critics of the FRA Act within the center-right coalition. Now he considers leaving his party over the FRA law:

That the new law was passed [despite the protests] has been a big disappointment to him. After a careful look at the issue he can no longer see himself stay in the Moderate party unless the party distances itself from the FRA Act.

Kudos to him for his strong morale. He also predicts that the Moderate party, which has been a favorite among voters in the age group 18-30 for 25 years, will lose an entire generation of voters over this.

This is precisely what the Social Democrats were expecting. They will not end this law - they wrote the original version - but they will lie about it to win the 2010 election.
