Justice Minister Gunnar Strömmer is viewed as a key asset for the Moderate Party due to his success in reducing gang violence. Despite these achievements, the party has not seen a corresponding increase in public opinion polls. Strömmer has faced some prestige loss following controversies regarding the imprisonment of 13-year-olds. The Minister believes that the party's collaboration with the Sweden Democrats (SD) may be deterring potential voters. This political tension creates a conflict between his policy successes and the party's strategic alliances. Consequently, the Moderate Party struggles to translate crime-fighting results into electoral growth.
