[quote:Tynyyn:MV8zOTA4ODYxXzcwNDgyMjY2XzkwQTg1Nzc=] Not surprising that a lib doesn't want to step down after a lost confidence vote. Just par for the course on the left not wanting to loose power. I'm beginning to think that the upper crust of the left is far from being a white knight. [/quote]

Lofven, who leads the Social Democrats, did not voluntarily leave his post immediately after the parliamentary elections, so the issue of confidence in the head of the Cabinet, elected for the previous mandate period, was on the agenda of the new legislative assembly.
Swedish Prime Minister Stefan Lofven has lost a mandatory confidence vote in parliament on September 25, indicating that the Social Democrat will have to step down.
According to the Prime Minister, very few people want a new election, including voters. He also promised to continue working to build a new government across the political divide.
The Local, a Scandinavian news site reported that a total of 204 out of 349 members of the Swedish parliament voted against supporting Lofven.
