Nothing far-right to see there.

They do the best in all-white areas in counties with many immigrants, for example rural Scania, in Örebro's surroundings etc. If there are very few non-European immigrants in the county as a whole, they don't do too well.

Oh yes, they do a lovely frozen Spotted Dick & their Prawn Ring is something to behold... Funny I always had you down as a Waitrose shopper, but I guess students want a cheap meal...

There's no distinction here between European and non-European immigrants. If anything, Eastern Europeans are disliked more than anyone, including Muslims. Poles in particular seem to get a lot of stick. I think it's because they are seen as taking jobs from natives, and they can move here very easily, whereas nowadays it's hard to move to the UK from outside the EU because we introduced an earning cap of £35,000.

May and her party want to limit immigration from everywhere, even if they are highly skilled.

Well, Eastern Europeans aren't exactly popular here in that sense, but except organized begging from Romania and Bulgaria it's tolerable for the vast majority of even right-wingers.

I've heard there's a lot of connections between Swedish right-wingers with Poles and Ukrainian like-minded for example.

Nope, I don't. But it's still a pretty damn safe.

The motive doesn't seem to be political.

edit: BTW, the last time a this kind of shooting happened in 2012. Two police officers were shot earlier this year, and they were the first cops murdered in the line of duty since 1997. So these occurrences are very rare.

Finnish extreme right-wingers are mostly in contact with German, Italian and Greek similar movements.

Ariete obviously didn't even like Kimi winning the 2007 Formula 1 title so she'd better be his cup of tea to bring out his patriotism

Oh damn. Boke.

Or maybe it's a good thing. You keep her over there. By force if necessary.
