Swedish PM reshuffles cabinet, Green's Lovin new deputy

STOCKHOLM, May 25 (Reuters) Swedish Prime Minister Stefan Lofven named Green Party's co-leader Isabella Lovin as his deputy in a cabinet reshuffle aimed at giving the minority coalition fresh energy after a series of scandals and falling poll numbers.
"This means that we will be able to deal with the central questions such as schools, jobs, the environment, house building ... and the EU's future with renewed power," Lofven, a Social Democrat, said.
The reshuffle comes after former Deputy Prime Minister Asa Romson was replaced as the Greens co-leader and the former housing minister, also from the Green Party, was forced to quit in April.
