In an alarming development that highlights the growing challenge of drug abuse in Sweden, a recent investigation by the Swedish tabloid Aftonbladet has revealed the presence of cocaine in the parliamentary offices. This discovery comes at a time when Sweden is experiencing a notable increase in cocaine usage despite the country’s efforts to enforce stricter drug laws.
Traces were found of cocaine in several restrooms of four political parties within the Swedish parliament.
The Aftonbladet investigation, which involved testing in the parliamentary office toilets, found cocaine traces in half of the cases. This revelation has sparked a wave of reactions across the political spectrum.
Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson has described the situation as ”serious,” while Deputy Prime Minister Ebba Busch expressed her dismay, emphasizing the importance of maintaining a drug-free environment in such a critical workplace.
”This is a workplace, and it must be a drug-free, safe, and secure place to work. In addition, it has an extremely strong symbolic value if drug freedom is not maintained in a place that also concerns Sweden’s highest decision-making assembly. I am quite dismayed by the news,” stated Ebba Busch.
The discovery of cocaine traces in the toilets of various political parties, including the Social Democrats, the Sweden Democrats, the Left Party, and the Liberals, has prompted calls for immediate and thorough investigations. The parties affected by these findings are urging the Parliament to take decisive action to address this issue.
Meanwhile, other parties whose toilets were found to be free of cocaine have also expressed concern over the findings. They agree on the seriousness of the situation and the need for a collective response to ensure the integrity and safety of the parliamentary offices.
This incident not only raises questions about drug use among Sweden’s political elite but also reflects a broader societal challenge.
The increasing prevalence of cocaine in the country, despite stricter drug laws, indicates a complex issue that requires a multi-faceted approach involving law enforcement, public health, and community engagement strategies.
As Sweden grapples with these revelations, the government faces the task of not only addressing the immediate concern within the Parliament but also tackling the wider problem of drug abuse in the country.
This event is a strong reminder of the ongoing fight against drug addiction and the need for effective and sustainable solutions, a fight that also applies to Swedish drug-abusing politicians in the Swedish Parliament.

How were traces of cocaine discovered in the Swedish Parliament given the tightened drug laws in the country?
Capt Nemo du har naturligtvis rätt, det enda som skulle få slut på detta är dagliga drogtester. Märklig att ingen i regeringen kom på den iden.men enligt svensk sed skall säkert en ”oberoende utredning” verkställas.
Drog test på alla som man gör på vissa andra arbetsplatser där det är krävs att
man har ett drogfritt tänkande , t.e.x chaufförer,poliser, läkare men kanske inte politiker….
Det kanske behövs droger för att klarar av att stå för en falsk realitet.
De som är drabbade skriker naturligtvis högt, finns det inte någon ” svarte Petter ” man kan anklaga för sina egna missdåd?
