**Paula Bieler Eriksson** (; born 31 March 1988) is a Swedish former politician for the [Sweden Democrats](/source/Sweden_Democrats) (SD) party.[1][2] She became a member of the party in 2009.[3] In November 2013 Bieler became an elected member of Sweden Democrats party council.[4] In the [2014 Swedish general election](/source/2014_Swedish_general_election), Bieler was the party's number six national candidate for the [Riksdag](/source/Riksdag), and was elected a member of the Riksdag.[1] Since April 2014 Bieler has also been the party's official political spokesman on gender and gay rights.[1][2] On 11 February 2020, Bieler revealed that she was leaving the [Riksdag](/source/Riksdag) in an interview with the Swedish tabloid [Expressen](/source/Expressen).[5] Shortly afterwards the podcast *Lögnarnas tempel* revealed that she has also left the Sweden Democrats.[6]

Bieler's reasons for leaving the SD was partly a dislike of the SD joining a conservative [bloc](/source/Political_bloc) together with the [Moderates](/source/Moderate_Party) and the [Christian Democrats](/source/Christian_Democrats_(Sweden)) (and eventually the [Liberals](/source/Liberals_(Sweden))), erasing the differences between parties. She also disliked that the SD had campaigned against the [Social Democrats](/source/Swedish_Social_Democratic_Party) after calling themselves heirs (*arvtagare*) to the Social Democrats.[7] She also disliked some policy positions the party had changed, and the processes and arguments used by the SD leadership to change them. One example is [abortion law](/source/Abortion_in_Sweden), where Bieler supported lowering the [gestational limit](/source/Gestational_age) from 18 weeks to 12 weeks.[8]

It was widely reported that a fellow SD member used an [antisemitic](/source/Antisemitism) slur against Bieler, who then was an active politician, during a party meeting.[9]

## Early life

Paula Bieler was born on 31 March 1988 in [Västerås](/source/V%C3%A4ster%C3%A5s), [Västmanland](/source/V%C3%A4stmanland_County), but grew up in [Täby](/source/T%C3%A4by_Municipality).[10] Both of Bieler's parents are from [Poland](/source/Poland).[11][non-primary source needed] Bieler's father was Jewish, the son of a high ranking [Communist](/source/Communism) politician who had to escape Poland due to an [antisemitic campaign](/source/1968_Polish_political_crisis) by the government.[12] Bieler married Tim Eriksson on 29 February 2020.[8]
