Got hold of a link to this open letter just now. It's titled Immigrants in Tech Oppose Tighter Citizenship Rules and it's worth a look. If you moved to Sweden for a tech job you might want to think about signing it. I sure have.
It's about all this new anti-immigrant stuff that's happening at the moment. Skärpta krav för svenskt medborgarskap they're calling it. All kinds of new rules to make it harder to get citizenship.
Big fan of the approach the letter takes. No moralising. Straight to business talk about Sweden's attractiveness as a destination for skilled labour. It makes a very strong point that to eliminate everything that's distinctive about Sweden's immigration system is to surrender its competitiveness on the global market.
Something I've noticed over the years since moving here for work is that Sweden's super rich often use people like me as political props in campaigns I disagree with for cuts to things like capital gains tax. Now suddenly here's a real grassroots issue. Something we're actually raising ourselves. It will be interesting to observe what level of passion those same wealthy Swedes show for the topic this time around.
Probably don't hold your breath. But do go and sign the bloody thing.
