The debaters, who are obviously quite far to the left of the political scale, consider the Tidö Agreement to be racist.

“The agreement contained a large number of racist and directly anti-democratic proposals, among other things, a sharp reduction in the number of quota refugees, detention of asylum seekers, enabling groundless visits in special areas, limiting the right to an interpreter and reporting obligations for health care workers.”

Forced to report patients without a residence permit who seek care an ethical stress and goes against the Health Care Act on equal care on equal terms for the entire population”, according to the 4,000.

“Furthermore, the agreement's measures will increase the already high level of vulnerability and stress for racialized immigrants in Sweden .”

The debaters announce that they will refuse to comply with the reporting requirement.

“If the measures proposed by the Tidö Agreement are pushed through in healthcare, we will commit civil disobedience and refuse a state our patients.”
