Prime minister and party leader of the Social Democrat party Stefan Löfven waves at an election party in Stockholm, Sweden, on Sunday. Sunday's election saw the Sweden Democrats, an anti-immigrant party with roots in a neo-Nazi movement, win about 18%, up from the 13% it gained four years earlier. Prime Minister Stefan Lofven, who brought the Social Democrats to power in 2014, said he intended to remain in the job. What I can exclude is any direct or indirect cooperation with the Sweden Democrats,'' Interior Minister Anders Ygeman, a Social Democrat said. The centre-right, four-party Alliance has said it would meet Monday to discuss how to move forward and demand that Mr Lofven, head of the minority, two-party governing coalition, resign.
