The King comments on increased gang violence

The numerous gang shootings in Stockholm are also discussed at the Royal Palace. In a speech to Stockholmers today, the King commented on the increased violence.

In a speech at Slottsbacken today, the King mentioned the many gang shootings that have occurred in Stockholm and the feeling of unsafeness many people feel.

He points out that violence must never be normalized and that we must not get used to it.

- Just as we restore nature that has been damaged, we must slowly and painstakingly restore security in our city, and in our country, says the King.

Despite the serious situation, the King looks to the future with confidence.

- After all, I feel hopeful when I see so much determination and so many good forces working together to fight violence.

This year, in addition to the throne jubilee, it's also celebrated that Sweden has been an independent state for 500 years - ever since Gustav Vasa was elected King on June 6, 1523.

The King commented that it was a violent period even in the 16th century – albeit in a completely different way.

Note: Why is that last sentence such a Carl Gustaf thing to say? 😂

31st August 2022 // Crown Princess Victoria officially opened the new Victoria Lock in Stockholm, named in her honour due to her commitment to water related issues. The new lock will, among other things, provide secure access to drinking water and manage increased flood risks and high water flows. The Crown Princess and her family visited the building site of the lock back in March

“The old lock was named after my ancestor, King Karl XIV Johan. Until just a few years ago, his statue stood here, in what was then Karl Johan’s Square. But when the city of Stockholm started construction of the new lock, we took the opportunity to take him home to Slottsbacken. Maybe he has a slightly less eventful life there, but we are happy to have him home!

I am honored that the city now wants to let me follow in Karl Johan's footsteps by giving the new lock my name. For me, it is also a reminder of the importance of continuing to shine a light on water issues. They are crucial to our future. Not just for us here in Mälardalen, but throughout the world.”

Yasuragi, gaslågeröd himmel över Västerbron, tre dagars B-day för A, tolv tomatplantor i struggling sunlight, de sista flyttlådorna, fjärde året värsta året, kompis med associate professor på SU, Roger Waters har blivit galen på riktigt men han inleder andra akten med In the flesh eller In the flesh?, ingen vet vilken men alla vet skillnaden dem emellan. Tre år i en lägenhet, färdig och klar och rastlös. Vaknar fortfarande med ögonen stängda för att få ett värdigt slut på drömmarna. Vi såg Hair på Göta Lejon, första raden. Moonica är ett väsen, gav oss flygblad och log. Hornsgatan 29 C, alltid Hornsgatan 29 C. Södermalmstorg men utan den karaktäristiska höstdoften. Gustav på KPMG, government advisory söksöksök. Billig äcklig Heineken på Hirschenkeller, Melleruds big nono. Vadfan är det om. Säg har du nånsin varit i Stockholm city? Käft och cowboyboots. Vargmåne är en rolig skiva men egentligen alldeles för goofy. Läser Bodil Malmsten som pausunderhållning mellan allt annat, Gud du borde gjort mig något lugnare, mindre rastlös kanske. 

Låg och flöt i utomhuspoolen på Yasuragi och tänkte på sista raderna i Paradise och Dave Bowmans sista ord innan monoliten slukade honom. Funderade på vilka som var mest relevanta. På sina egna sätt precis lika mycket. Snötäckt tallskog i alla riktningar. Starkt besläktat med vemodet i Vintersaga, någonting det här landet har jobbat på och byggt upp sedan Fogelström. Jag vet vad tro är, jag vet dess värde, inre och yttre. Meningsuppbygnaden är verkligen anskrämlig i de här texterna men vem bryr sig. Akademiskt skrivande har sin egen tid och plats. 

Göran Tunström och Tjuven, slottsbacken och höstlöven och historien han ska skriva. Allt spelar sin roll och allt måste hända dig.

The Royal Palace of Stockholm stands proudly on Slottsbacken in the Swedish capital’s charming Old Town. Designed by master architect Nicodemus Tessin the Younger – this enormous jewel of a regal building was inaugurated in 1754. Tessin learnt his craft in France, Italy and England, where he studied architecture and landscape gardening for many years. A former pupil of Lorenzo Bernini, he drew heavily on the Baroque architecture of Rome – which explains why he decided to model The Royal of Palace of Stockholm on a Roman palace.

Fackeltåg för Rojava

Det är nu över en månad sedan Turkiet invaderade Norra Syrien och kriget pågår trots att det ska råda vapenvila. Vi tågar för att visa vårt stöd till Demokratiska Federationen Norra och Östra Syrien, även kallad Rojava och vi kräver att Turkiet omedelbart upphör med alla krigshandling och drar tillbaka sin armé och miliser. Vi kräver av våra svenska politiker att de går i spetsen för sanktioner mot Turkiet och av våra politiker i Uppsala att de tydligt tar ställning mot den Turkiska invasionen och den etniska rensning den leder till. Vi samlas i Slottsbacken 15.30 och tågar mot centrum kl 16.00 Mer info:https://www.facebook.com/events/2500838260194094/
