right-wing party and if you see party-members Tomas Tobé, Elisabeth
Svantesson, Johan Forsell, Hanif Bali, Ann Heberlein and Alice Teodorescu (one of their newest members) talk about economy, migration, crimes, taxes etc. on TV, you'll find that they're clearly right-wing politicians. Their political views are quite similar to other right-wing partys KD and MED, and even far-right oriented SD (in some questions). Centre-right partys C and L are not as harsh as Moderate Party in their ideology so yeah... Moderate party is a centre-right to right-wing party.

As sources for your recent change you added the
Expressen article you linked above and a 2010 page from the Moderates website. I don't understand what you intend to show with a nine years old web page, but I can't find anything there that supports the statement. As for the Expressen page you rely on

I don't think this party is right-wing. There is no guarantee from any source that this party is a right-wing. It's just a relatively more conservative trend than in the past. The
Moderate Party is basically a 'Centre-right' and please provide a suitable source for this party as a real 'Centre-right
842:
The first source is general information about the party, which dates back to 2010 and doesn't even mention the word "right". The second source is a newspaper article that describes that the party has adopted a new logo that resembles historical logos, and which contains only one sentence about the

Reinfeldt's time" (Partiet vill stå mer tydligt till höger än under Reinfeldts tid.) and former leader Ulf Adelsohn (1981-1986) said that "Moderate party has returned to what we stood for". Back then they were a

Keep in mind that "liberal" means very different things in
British English and American English and this leads to confusion. AE "Liberalism" would be the same as BE "Social liberalism", whereas BE "Liberalism" is roughly AE "Libertarianism". The Swedish words more closely match the BE ones,

During the
Moderate Party Congress in October 2021, multiple new policies were brought forward - Lowering the age of criminal responsibility to 13, that Sweden should have the lowest level of immigration in the European Union aswell as to call themselves a “Grön Höger” (Green Right).

Thanks for providing the links, Michaelm. While I agree that one could read the platform as being "conservative", I think that we have to take into consideration the last line of , above: "Our policy is based on liberal and conservative values and ideas."

Trust me, they're not a traditionally conservative party. I would rather compare them to the U.S. Democratic Party or the UK Labour party. From their official website: "Our policy is based on liberal and conservative values and ideas."

All of this together with other changes in position in favour of the right I would find it more appropriate if the
Moderate Party was classified as a “Centre-right to right-wing party”.
