The party leaders will be brought back in for a second round of discussions on Tuesday. This is only done after talks with the different leaders in order to assess who might have the best chance of forming a workable government. On Friday, the leader of the Liberal Party, Jan Björklund, called on Norlén to give one of the eight party leaders the go-ahead to start negotiations on forming a new government. Sweden's September 9th election left the centre-left bloc with just one seat more than the centre-right Alliance, with the far-right Sweden Democrats (SD) the third biggest group. Björklund, like the other party leaders within the Alliance, wants to see Ulf Kristersson of the Moderates named prime minister.
