1. If the Tidö parties win the election, the aim should be for all four parties to sit in government. Those are the Moderates, Christian Democrats, Liberals and Sweden Democrats. Sweden is currently ruled by a coalition of the former three, supported by the latter in parliament. This is the most controversial point, as the Liberals have until now been strictly against allowing the Sweden Democrats to hold any ministerial portfolios.
2. A stable energy supply is considered crucial for increased economic growth. Electrification should continue and fossil fuels be phased out.
3. The current climate policy should continue and emissions should decrease in line with the Tidö Agreement and the government's climate action plan. The Tidö Agreement was formed by the Moderates, Christian Democrats, Liberals and Sweden Democrats after the 2022 election, to allow the former three to take office with the backing of the latter in parliament.
4. A new referendum on joining the Euro will be held on the day of the general election in 2030.
5. Sweden should deepen its cooperation with the EU and Nato, especially with its Nordic neighbours during "a very challenging time in terms of security policy".
6. A general, state-run and mandatory unemployment insurance scheme should be introduced, and taxes lowered on work and business entrepreneurship.
7. Strengthen growth by, among other things, improving the supply of skills to Swedish businesses.
8. Prioritise and strengthen Swedish schools, among other things based on the Liberals' school policy reports. Nationalise school system governance and responsibly phase out for-profit schools.
9. Pursue a strict but humane migration policy where those who integrate, work and behave are given good opportunities to stay.
10. Safeguard the "arm's-length principle" – a principle essentially stating that politicians and the state shouldn't dictate culture – and strengthen the function of institutions, such as the cultural sector, public service media, public libraries, independent research and government agencies with oversight roles.
11. Protect academic freedom by including it in the constitution.
12. Help the public educate themselves by ensuring access to facilities in smaller towns and rural areas.
13. Criminal policy should focus on victims of crime and push back against gang crime.
14. The right to personal assistance and LSS (support and services for people with certain disabilities) should be strong and equal across the entire country. Disability rights should be strengthened. Assistance compensation should follow actual cost developments.
15. Strengthen care for young people's mental health, priorities problems with loneliness, and work against domestic violence and honour-based oppression.
