Rydman wins Parliament’s support, digs in his heels over media criticism
MINISTER of Economic Affairs Wille Rydman (PS) on Monday won the confidence of his fellow lawmakers by a vote of 92 for and 76 against.
Rydman was supported by all but two members of the four ruling parties: the National Coalition, Finns Party, Swedish People’s Party and Christian Democrats. Eva Biaudet (SFP) and Pihla Keto-Huovinen (NCP) cast a blank vote in a vote that senior cabinet members had framed as one on the future of the ruling coalition.
