Matti Viren wrote that, in his opinion, the National Coalition's decision would practically mean opening the borders: if Pizzeria X announced it needed 20 employees, the Migration Office would have no say in the matter. He referred to Kaleva, mentioning that the National Coalition still supports abandoning the labor availability assessment, even though this was not mentioned in the party's directives, and asked if it couldn't have fit into nine pages. https://t.co/4w6gjmAyva #Työvoima #Politiikka #Palkkaus (translated)

Jari Sarasvuo criticized the title and perspective of the article that reported on Elon Musk's flying Tesla. According to him, the title should have mentioned that Musk introduced the flying Tesla, and in the introduction, it should have stated that Tesla's new Roadster turned in the air with the help of SpaceX's propulsion engines. Sarasvuo wrote that currently, a flying Tesla would be illegal and unsafe in traffic, and that its entry into road traffic could take a long time or might not happen at all. He considered the comments about safety and legality as opinion manipulation and the presentation event as a grand show. He stated that deliveries had previously been more professional. #Tesla #ElonMusk #journalismi (translated)

Jocka Träskbäck praised Suvi-Anne Siimes's economic views and straightforwardness. He wrote that it would have been difficult to imagine 20 years earlier that the then-Member of Parliament and chair of the Left Alliance would present such views. Träskbäck described Siimes, for example, regarding how understanding of the national economy can deepen, in his opinion, when one engages with it in ways other than through the employment office and Kela. He noted that the article had already been published on March 10, 2026, but the topic was still relevant. https://t.co/poiWbvZ4lq #Suomi #politikka #talous (translated)

He asked how much more Finns should pay to ensure that enough responsibility had been taken. #Suomi #maahanmuutto #verotus (translated)

Jussi Mäkinen wrote that Finnish immigration discussion, in his experience, had focused on the need for workers in low-paying jobs and funding for the pension system. He criticized that councilor Meri was condemned for speaking about what she thought. Mäkinen also pondered whether conclusions could be drawn from the names of those accepted into the Swedish-speaking medical faculty. Mäkinen criticized Marin's government's decision to raise the compulsory schooling age to 18. According to him, the reform had provided state-funded textbooks and school transportation for upper middle-class high school students, but at the same time enrolled youths in education who might not attend classes. He mentioned hearing from acquaintances in vocational schools in the capital region that, for example, selected students in electrical studies had not showed up for school even after the second academic year had started. Mäkinen also claimed that educational institutions received funding based on the names on student lists, even if the student did not show up. Mäkinen wrote that the proportion of those completing secondary education had risen from about 77.9 percent to 79.4 percent among those young people who turned 20 by the spring of that year. He challenged Meri to publish a positive update when the students on the list would have graduated. Mäkinen estimated that nearly 90 percent of those accepted to high school had Finnish backgrounds and nearly 90 percent of those accepted to vocational schools had immigrant backgrounds. He also shared that his friend, a Master's degree holder in business sciences who had come to Finland as a refugee from Kosovo, had said that they had learned better Finnish on a football team than in a classroom with immigrant-background students. Finally, Mäkinen reminded of a previous discussion where it was deemed important to transfer Finnish children from their local school to a school where the majority of students belonged to the S2 language group. He wrote that the backgrounds of the names on vocational school student lists could not yet be discussed. #maahanmuutto #koulutus #suomi (translated)

The Finns Party wrote that Finland could not afford to provide social services, education, healthcare, or banking services to everyone who wanted them.

It believed that during the next government term, the ongoing work to address the issues in immigration policy should continue. #ps #perussuomalaiset #maahanmuutto #maahanmuutto #politiikka #resurssit (translated)

Elina Hiltunen wrote that defending her values had become costly for her: she had lost her well-paying job and all her positions of trust in the National Coalition Party, resulting in a collapse of her income. She stated that content production and the paid subscriber community did not even cover the basic costs of the operation, and therefore considered the claim that money was the motive for her activities to be unsustainable. Hiltunen said she was acting because she cared about the future of Finland, and mentioned that her motives and goals were the same as those she had openly discussed in her videos on Instagram and TikTok since the spring. #raha #talous #suomentulevaisuus (translated)

Henri Vanhanen wrote that he understands Volodymyr Zelensky's frustration with Donald Trump but criticized Europe for not intervening more actively in the negotiations. Vanhanen stated that Ukraine accepted a ceasefire proposed by the United States in the spring of 2025, which Vladimir Putin rejected. According to him, Trump threatened Russia with consequences, invited Putin to Alaska, and continued to seek a deal. Ultimately, according to Vanhanen, Russia's terms for peace were shaped to be acceptable to the Americans, after which Ukraine and European countries had to amend them. Vanhanen compared Putin's negotiation style to the Soviet style, which he associated with Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko: first, a lot is demanded, concessions are rejected, and it is expected that the opposing party will offer more. He assessed that Trump needed a visible agreement more than Putin, which is why, in his opinion, Russia could wait for new initiatives from the United States. Vanhanen criticized Trump for letting Russia's demands influence what Ukraine was pressured to concede. He questioned why Europe had not presented a joint peace proposal with Ukraine or jointly decided how to respond to Russia's next refusal. Vanhanen noted that the United States' influence is undeniable and its participation is necessary, but he believed that Trump should not be given exclusive rights to define the direction of the negotiations. In his opinion, Europe did not need to be ashamed of Trump's lack of historical knowledge or understanding of Russia's negotiating tactics, but Europe's passivity was still harder to defend. https://t.co/qs68FaMyfW #Ukraina #Eurooppa #Trump (translated)

Petteri Vaara criticized the government's decision to grant a 150 million euro tax support to Anglo American's subsidiary, Sakati, through Business Finland. According to him, the value of the metal deposits located in Viiankiaapa in Sodankylä, a Natura 2000 area, was tens of billions of euros: about 15 billion euros for copper and over ten billion euros for nickel, gold, and palladium. Vaara believed that the mining company would receive the extracted metals and the vast majority of the economic benefits, while the risks of the project would remain with nature and taxpayers. Vaara wrote that the state was preparing and partly funding mining projects but handed the responsibility for leading them to multinational companies. He also criticized the National Coalition Party member of parliament, Pia Kauma, who stated that protected nature calmed and comforted people, but metals were needed for batteries and electrical cables. Vaara mentioned that Sakati had met with several ministers, their assistants, and members of parliament and had used consultants from the law firm Borenius. Vaara claimed that 79 percent of Finns opposed mining in nature conservation areas. According to him, the government was pushing for the project to gain the status of an EU strategic raw materials initiative to expedite the permitting process. He also criticized Anglo American's plans to purchase old-growth forests in Inari and to restore drained wetlands to replace Viiankiaapa. Vaara referred to a statement from the Permit and Supervision Agency, which indicated that the actions proposed by the company were insufficient to mitigate the environmental harm of the project as required by the nature directive. https://t.co/spQ6nEoAhG #Suomi #Luonto #Kaivosteollisuus (translated)
