Hopeless communicator

Ringholm has come under attack from the opposition. First, opposition leaders in June criticized his use of a government jet to fly from a Swedish football match at Euro 2004 in Portugal to attend a meeting of the country's Trade Union Confederation, the biggest donor to the Social Democrats.

Earlier this summer, Swedish radio revealed that Enskede IK's, the football club chaired by Ringholm, hadn't paid tax on its advertising income, as required by Swedish law.
