He is the first prime-minister candidate Riksdagen has voted no to in all its history. Riksdagen has removed many sitting PMs over the years but Ulf Kristersson is the first aspiring PM to get rejected. He is a really poor leader though who is ruining his own party and hes also managed to fall out with two of his ally parties (the Liberals and the Neoliberals).

The votes were 195-154 (against-for).

Interesting to see that conservative leaders being dull, unliked, and having no control over their caucus isn't something that's exclusive to Canada

While past conservatives have been rather dull, I imagine we'll see an upswing in Trump-emulators in Canadian politics, especially with Bernier cutting off and making his own party. Not to mention we almost had Kevin O'Leary running at one point.

I see. We have a Nationalist party in Riksdagen since 2010. And it is how to deal with them which has caused the Conservative-Liberal fallout.

He might be the first to get rejected, but if it contines like this, he certainly won't be the last
