Agree

Yes, but they should only be allowed to vote in local elections

The SSP might view the ability for foreigners to participate in local elections as a positive step towards integration and community participation, even if it falls short of their broader goals for full democratic inclusion.

Agree

Yes, but only after living in the country for 5 years

Slightly agree

Yes, but only if they are European Union citizens

Neutral

Yes, but only after living in the country for 10 years
