Ulf Hjalmar Kristersson is a Swedish Moderate Party politician who served as Minister for Social Security between 2010 and 2014. Previously he was one of the vice mayors in Stockholm. He was born in Sk�ne and grew up there and in S�dermanland. After finishing secondary school at S:t Eskils gymnasium in Eskilstuna and completing a degree in economics at Uppsala University, he was elected chairman of the Moderate Youth League in 1988. When he stood for re-election the second time in 1992, he was opposed by Fredrik Reinfeldt, who is now the leader of the Moderate Party. The congress was preceded by considerable ideological divisions between Libertarians and Conservatives. All this erupted at the congress in Lycksele, which came to be known as The Battle of Lycksele. Kristersson, the Libertarian alternative, lost narrowly. On October 5, 2010 he became Minister for Social Security. He was predicted as a future leader of the party before his loss. It is said that his loss caused his withdrawal from front-line politics and he was subsequently known as part of "Lost Generation" of the Moderate Party. In 1991 Ulf Kristersson was elected to the Riksdag and served until 2000.
