Politicians are public figures who are required to tolerate higher amount of criticism and general bitching. Even if those statements are not completely true. This is closely related to freedom of press and democracy, all protected in EU.

Religion is a different thing, most (pretty sure all) European countries prohibit public defamation of race, nations, languages, religious beliefs and even atheism. This is no way a Swedish thing.

Cruci is right here.
