A reader expresses concern over Sweden's inhumane deportation policies and reflects on a dream where officials stood up against these policies.

In an opinion piece featured in Dagens Nyheter, a reader shares her thoughts regarding the recent resignation of political scientist Ludvig Beckman from the Migration Agency's ethical council. She expresses surprise over the existence of such a council, highlighting its significant yet previously unnoticed role. Beckman’s resignation is described as an act of integrity in response to the current deportation policies in Sweden, which he views as so inhumane that they contradict the constitution.

The reader, Agneta Månsson, recounts a vivid dream in which not only Beckman but all members of the council and even Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson join together in resigning, boldly declaring that the current policies are unacceptable. This dream symbolizes a desire for a collective stand against what she perceives as unjust governmental decisions, reflecting her frustration and hope for a systemic change.

Månsson's reflections resonate with a growing dissent among the populace regarding immigration and deportation practices, pointing to a broader social sentiment about human rights and ethical governance in Sweden. She voices a call to action for the public and political leaders to acknowledge and address these pressing issues, underscoring the need for a compassionate approach to immigration and asylum policies.
