"It is not impossible to keep up the pariah status"
 
Professor Jonas Hinnfors, University of Gothenburg.

The election result in The Netherlands shows that mainstream parties can successfully combat right-wing populist parties by refusing to work with them, validating the approach in Sweden, according to a leading academic.

Jonas Hinnfors, politics professor at the University of Gothenburg, said: "If there is a lesson to learn, it is that it is not impossible to keep up the pariah status while at the same time keeping the populist-radical party at bay."

Sweden's parties of the centre-right and centre-left have, until a recent move by the Moderate Party, refused to either negotiate with the populist Sweden Democrats in parliament, or to enter into coalition governments with them.

Dolf Hitler would have liked the attitude that you can wear someone down by beating the same drum all the time.
