The Social Democratic Party 86 Socialdemokraterna “As a politician I am driven by a determination to shape a society of liberty, equality and solidarity.” Photo: Esther Sorri
Göran Persson My name is Göran Persson and I am 53 years old. For just over six years now I have been Prime Minister and Chairman of the Swedish Social Democratic Party. As a politician I am driven by a determination to shape a society of liberty, equality and solidarity. Therefore I am proud that we have reduced open unemployment in Sweden by half – proud but not satisfied. There are still many people without work and far too many who are getting worn out at their workplaces. I am proud that we have a school system which is good by international standards – proud, but not satisfied. It is unacceptable that there should be pupils who are not receiving the support they need so as to be able to learn to count, read and write satisfactorily. I am proud that we have good caring services for the elderly and sick – proud, but not satisfied. Too many people are having to wait far too long for treatment, and there are not enough personnel to look after them. I am proud that Sweden is often mentioned as an example in efforts to create a better environment – proud, but not satisfied. For we all know that air and water are still being polluted by vehicle exhausts and other emissions and that the future of succeeding generations is being jeopardised. To make a good country – Sweden – better, therefore, we need more justice 87
