> Money set aside for repatriation may be better spent on integrating refugees and other migrants, through programs like language lessons, job assistance and training, which could help newcomers build a future in Sweden, she said.

So just to be clear, a Neo-Nazi political group rebranded, and has successfully passed a law to use significant amounts of taxes to deport immigrants instead of using the same amount of money to integrate them?

Thanks. I mean it seems pretty straightforward in its position. I don’t agree but at least it’s clear.

The difference is that their approach might work (it most likely won’t achieve anything.. but still) just spending the same (or higher) amounts of money is less likely to achieve anything without significant policy changes (forced assimilation and such which seems like even more cruel that semi-voluntary deportation)
