Sweden Democrats or Swedish Democrats (Swedish: Sverigedemokraterna, SD) is a political party in Sweden that was founded in 1988. The party describes itself as social conservative with a nationalist foundation, though it has been characterized by some as far-right,right-wing populist,national-conservative, and anti-immigration. Since 2005 its party chairman has been Jimmie Åkesson. Richard Jomshof has been party secretary since 2015 and Mattias Karlsson has been the parliamentary group leader since 2014. An Anemone hepatica flower (Swedish: blåsippa) has been the official SD logo since 2006.
SD is divided into eighteen district party associations, and various local or municipal associations, throughout Sweden. Until recently, young members were organised in the Sweden Democratic Youth (SDU), founded in 1998; however, the youth organisation was expelled from the party in 2015 due to accusations of racism and connections to extremist groups. Shortly after expelling SDU, the party formed a new youth wing called Ungsvenskarna SDU, a name similar to the old name of the youth wing of the Swedish Moderate party. The party also publishes a magazine, SD-Kuriren, which is distributed to its members.
