Folklistan (lit. 'The People's List') was a Swedish electoral alliance between individual candidates running in the 2024 European Parliament elections. Folklistan was launched by Jan Emanuel, a former Social Democratic Party MP, and Sara Skyttedal, an MEP previously with the Christian Democrats in April 2024. They are also the group's main candidates for the European Parliament elections 2024.
Sara Skyttedal was elected Member of the European Parliament in 2019 for the Christian Democrats, who are grouped with the European People's Party. She left the party in February 2024, but remained in parliament as an independent. In early April 2024, it was noticed that she had registered a new party called Folklistan, and it was later launched in Henrik Jönsson's program on YouTube. On June 27, Jan Emanuel announced that the party would be dissolved due to the poor result in the 2024 European Parliament elections.
