Ambition Sverige wants to live in a society where everyone who works in the service of the people, from administrator to director general, has a clear personal responsibility. A society where every decision is made with respect for the law, for the mission and for people.<\/p>\n

Today, we see something completely different.
\nDecisions are taken arbitrarily, often without a clear legal basis, without transparency and without accountability.<\/p>\n

In 1976, the criminal liability of public officials was abolished. Although the law on official misconduct still exists in the Criminal Code (Chapter 20), which also covers gross negligence and neglect, its application is in practice non-existent. The requirements for conviction have become so high that even serious errors, abuse of power and neglect rarely lead to prosecution, let alone conviction.<\/p>\n

The result is a system where, in practice, no public official can be held legally accountable even for gross negligence. We see children denied help, elderly people raising the alarm without getting answers, and life-changing decisions that cannot be legally challenged, all under a culture of silence where accountability is dissolved.<\/p>\n

At the same time, organised crime is spreading within municipalities and welfare systems, protected by a lack of transparency and accountability. Study after study has highlighted the problems, but no government has acted.<\/p>\n

Ambition Sverige wants to reintroduce clear, legally certain and criminal liability for officials.
\nTo reconnect power to responsibility.
\nTo put an end to arbitrariness.
\nTo ensure that law becomes law again and not an interpretation.<\/p>\n

When accountability is absent and justice is silenced, we are fast approaching a lawless society.
\nWe are Ambition Sverige. We restore responsibility and we take responsibility.<\/p>\n
