In Sweden we have a been under social-democratic rule for almost 70 years.
Good and bad things have come from this I guess (depending on perspective).
Today a rightwing coalition is ruling (four parties joined together).
And there's a lot of celebrating the 1 may (labourday?), even though its getting lesser for each year. (its marked as a "sunday" in the calendar) It should be noted that its mostly the Socialdemocrats and most of the Union organizations (and the more leftwing parties) that do parades and demonstration march's in Sweden. Maybe a few neonazi's trying to make their voice heard as well, as some sort of anti-demonstraton against..well, pretty much everything.
My question is to you guys living in the US. Is their any 1 May celebrating at all or is all such things banished? And to you other guys not living in US or Sweden, hows the 1 May status in your country?
