taken in 6000 quota refugees per year. 386 It further proposes constitutional amendments to extend the legal grounds for border security activities to gather data on migrants, including DNA samples, and checking their private belongings and social media accounts, amongst others. 387 The Tidö Agreement’s proposal that public service workers shall be required to inform the police and migration agency about any contacts with illegal immigrants was developed into a controversial bill called the Reporting Act(Swedish:“Angiverilagen”) in summer 2023 and sparked much debate, criticism and demonstrations. The Tidö Agreement further proposes to investigate the possibilities for deportation of foreign citizens due to“asocial behavior” (Swedish:“ bristande vandal”), 388 even if no laws were broken. The requirements for citizenship shall become stricter, and the government will investigate possibilities for withdrawing Swedish citizenship of people with dual citizenship who have committed specific kinds of crime. In many ways, the mainstream(centre-)right-wing governing parties and particularly the Moderate Party have changed their stances on immigration towards the stances of the Sweden Democrats. As shown by the above examples from party manifestos since 2014 and the Tidö Agreement, mainstream(centre-)right-wing parties now largely coincide with the Sweden Democrats on many aspects related to immigration. 9.3.2 Law and order As regards law and order, Figure 53a-c shows that the trends are similar, particularly among the parties’ MPs and in parties’ manifestos but less so among party members. 389 Between 2015 and 2019, all parties’ members shift slightly towards more agreement with the proposal that people who break the law should be given stiffer sentences(Figure 53b). Party members of the Moderates and Christian Democrats were already most in favour of this proposal in 2015. In contrast to the party members, the MPs reveal more striking between-party differences(Figure 53a). 390 Between 2014 and 2018, MPs of the Left, Green and Centre Parties barely changed in their positions towards harsher prison sentences for criminals. In contrast, MPs of the Moderates, Christian Democrats and the Social Democrats shifted more significantly towards endorsing harsher prison sentences. By 2018, MPs of the Moderates held similarly positive positions towards harsher prison sentences for criminals as MPs of the Sweden Democrats, on average(Figure 53a). Figure 53.
