Tuulia Alanko wrote that the Central Alliance's student organization profile picture featured a trans pride flag and interpreted this as a sign that the organization wanted to position itself in support of Antti Lindtman. Alanko claimed that the organization had already been willing to support a red-green government during the previous electoral term, which she argued was tightening taxes on drivers and implementing ambitious climate policies at the expense of rural residents. Alanko assessed that there was division within the Central Alliance and pressure to support a leftist government even after the next elections. According to her, the party had abandoned traditional values related to home, religion, and patriotism and replaced them with identity politics and virtue signaling. She linked this to the Central Alliance students' reluctance to cooperate with the True Finns and wrote that her late Central Alliance grandfather would turn in his grave seeing what the party currently represented. #Keskusta #Suomi #Politiikka (translated)

Henri Vanhanen wrote that it was difficult to say whether Germany's Alice Weidel and France's Marine Le Pen were imitators of Donald Trump or sympathizers of Vladimir Putin, and according to him, the difference may not necessarily have mattered for the outcome. He mentioned that Weidel had declared the war in Ukraine a defeat and demanded an end to Germany's support, while Le Pen wanted to limit France's financial support to Ukraine. According to Vanhanen, politicians aiming for power in Europe's large countries had a short-sighted attitude towards Russia, European history, and security. He warned Finland not to assume that the rest of Europe would inevitably follow the same path as Finland. He did not consider the AfD's entry into the German federal government in the coming years to be likely but assessed that the strengthening of political forces like the party would pose serious security policy problems. Vanhanen also wrote that the Kremlin was monitoring Europe's electoral calendars. According to him, Putin would have no reason to rush negotiations if he believed that Ukraine's supporters would be replaced by leaders who were less sympathetic to Ukraine. Vanhanen noted that Europe's center-right parties had not responded in a timely manner to citizens' immigration concerns, which had allowed room for radical alternatives. He viewed the problem not as a demand for stricter immigration policies, but in that these movements were also bringing to power forces that represented admiration for authoritarianism, opposition to Ukraine, and sympathy for Russia. He assessed that decisions about Europe's security would be made both on the battlefields of Ukraine and in European elections, emphasizing that this should also be understood in Finland. https://t.co/3s94O0WUiT #Eurooppa #Politiikka #Turvallisuus (translated)

Sebastian Tynkkynen wrote to Antti Kaikkonen that the Centre Party supported the decision made in Helsinki to ask the Ministry of Transport and Communications for an investigation into the introduction of congestion charges.

Tynkkynen added that, in his view, the same was happening in many matters across all parties. https://t.co/NbE1AqyMb0 #Helsinki #ruuhkamaksut #politiikka (translated)

Jorma X, a longtime voter of the National Coalition Party, wrote that he did not like the "but when the Finns" campaign. According to him, the campaign backfired badly because, in his opinion, it was not possible to sell images in X. As an example, he mentioned the Centre Party, which he said was continuously making mistakes with incomprehensible statements. #politiikka #Suomi #vaalit (translated)

Mikael Lith wrote that, in his opinion, the center of Helsinki has become more unpleasant in recent years, especially on weekend evenings. He described loud and swearing groups of people, individuals under the influence of substances, and rundown places. According to Lith, there was an increasing need for police and security guards, and he estimated that it wouldn't be long before Helsinki would become Finland's Birmingham. #Helsinki #yhteiskunta #kulttuuri (translated)

Pjotr Debatt considered HS's writing a proper and fairly straightforward statement against face-covering cloaks. According to him, leftist parties often prioritized solidarity towards immigrants over women's rights, while moderate centrists and liberal circles remained silent to avoid allegations of capitulating. #naistenoikeudet #maahanmuutto #politiikka (translated)

Leena Pihanurmi criticized the allocation of tax funds to the close circles she described and wrote that money was collected at coffee and pastry meetings.

Hannu Järvinen wrote that he found it strange to think that banning driving and filling the center with construction pits would reduce people's desire to go there. He added that he would not have believed this would happen. https://t.co/vdkU1pQKga #autoilu #rakentaminen #kaupunkisuunnittelu (translated)

Sture Fjäder described the speeches of the chairperson of the SDP as arrogant boasting. According to him, the Centre Party could not enter a government like that of 2019 with its current support, as it would be suicide for the party. Fjäder also assessed that the third-place National Coalition Party could not join a blue-red government, as its support would further decline. #vaalit2027 https://t.co/BkIrQe5Sot #vaalit #politiikka #Suomi (translated)
