The game of politics is dirty. All the leaders say that their politics is unique, but when the claim starts to backfire, then the game is only bad. As long as you keep moving forward, people praise you and when the claim fails, then the same leader starts falling from the eyes of the public. So has the same condition happened to Sharad Pawar / Has Sharad Pawar become very weak now in Maharashtra (Maharashtra Politics)

Oulu is five hours north from Helsinki by train and a good deal colder and darker each winter than the Finnish capital. From November to March its 220,000 residents are lucky to see daylight for a couple of hours a day and temperatures can reach the minus 30s. However, this is not the reason I sense a darkening of the Finnish dream that brought me here six years ago.

In 2018, moving to Finland seemed like a no-brainer. One year earlier I had met my Finnish partner while working away in Oulu. My adopted home of Italy, where I had lived for 10 years, had recently elected a coalition government with the far-right Matteo Salvini as interior minister, while my native UK had voted for Brexit. Given Finland’s status as a beacon of progressive values, I boarded a plane, leaving my lecturing job and friends behind.

Things have gone well. My partner and I both have stable teaching contracts, me at a university where my mostly Finnish colleagues are on the whole friendlier than the taciturn cliche that persists of Finns (and which stands in puzzling contradiction to their status as the world’s happiest people).

Notwithstanding this, I feel a sense of unease as Finland’s prime minister Petteri Orpo’s rightwing coalition government has set about slashing welfare and capping public sector pay. Even on two teachers’ salaries my partner and I have felt the sting of inflation as goods have increased by 20% in three years. With beer now costing €8 or more in a city centre pub, going out becomes an ever rarer expense.

Those worse off than us face food scarcity. A survey conducted by the National Institute for Health and Welfare found 25% of students struggling to afford food, while reductions in housing benefit mean tenants are being forced to move or absorb the shortfall in rent payments. There are concerns that many unemployed young people could become homeless.

Healthcare is faring little better. Finland’s two-tier system means that while civil servants and local government employees (including teachers) paradoxically enjoy private health cover, many other people face long waiting lists. Not having dental cover on my university’s plan, I called for a public dental appointment in April. I was put on callback and received a text message stating I’d be contacted when the waiting list reopened. Six months later, I am still waiting. A few years ago I could expect to wait two months at most.

The current government, formed by Orpo’s National Coalition party (NCP) last year in coalition with the far-right Finns party, the Swedish People’s party of Finland and the Christian Democrats, has been described as “the most rightwing” Finland has ever seen – a position it appears to relish.

Deputy prime minister and finance minister Riikka Purra – the Finns’ party leader – has been linked to racist and sometimes violent comments made online back in 2008. The party’s xenophobia is clearly influencing policymaking and affecting migrants. As a foreigner, I’d be lying if I didn’t admit to feeling a certain chill as anti-immigrant rhetoric ramps up.

A survey by the organisation Specialists in Finland last year found that most highly qualified workers would consider leaving Finland if the government’s planned tightening of visa requirements went ahead (that proposal, which extended residence time required for Finnish citizenship from four to as many as eight years has now become law). Luckily, I am a permanent resident under the Brexit agreement.

With the coalition intent on ending Finland’s long history of welfarism in just one term, there is a risk (and hope among progressives) that it may go too far, inviting a backlash. We arguably saw signs of this in the European election in the summer, when Li Andersson won the highest number of votes for an EU election candidate in Finland. Andersson, who was education minister in Sanna Marin’s former centre-left coalition government (which lost to the NCP in April 2023), ran on a progressive red-green ticket of increased wealth equality and measures to tackle the climate crisis. She has also been critical of emergency laws blocking asylum seekers from crossing Finland’s eastern border, arguing that it contravenes human rights obligations.

Andersson’s party, the Left Alliance, chose a new leader this month, the charismatic feminist author Minja Koskela, who was elected to Helsinki’s council in 2021 after a period as secretary of the Feminist party, and as a member of parliament in 2023. Koskela argues: “People are widely frustrated with the government’s discriminatory policy and cuts to culture, social and health services, education and people’s livelihood. It is possible to turn this frustration into action.” (Full disclosure: I’m a member of the party and have helped coordinate its local approach to immigrants.)

It remains to be seen if she can build on Andersson’s EU success. Although the popular media-savvy figure appears to relish the challenge of turning the party into an election winner, Koskela faces a huge challenge. The party struggles to poll at more than 10% nationally, aside from a brief high of 11% in July. A place in government is nonetheless possible. But Marin’s Social Democratic party (SDP) of Finland (now led by Antti Lindtman), has topped the national opinion polls 12 out of 14 times since April 2023.

Meanwhile, the Finns party is polling at 16%, down from the 20.1% vote they gained in the election. These figures point to one thing: another possible SDP-led coalition government in the next parliament by the summer of 2027. This would probably include the Left Alliance and the Green League, among others. And such a coalition would aim to undo a lot of the damage done by the right.

But until then, there will be more damage to come. So while there is clearly hope for an end in sight to the country’s political darkness three years hence, this will bring little solace now to poor people, migrants, and the squeezed middle class as the long Finnish winter closes in.

A brief overview of recent events in Finnish politics:

Vilhelm Junnila, a politician in the True Finns posts nazi-adjacent jokes on the internet for years and speaks at a neo-nazi event. Nothing much happens besides discontent from the left.

In the last election, the goverment coalition is formed by the National Coalition Party (a center-right liberal conservatist party), the True Finns (a right-wing populist party), the Swedish People's Party, and the Christian Democrats. This coalition is led by now-Prime Minister Petteri Orpo of the NCP.

Orpo assigns Junnila as the Minister of Economic Affairs.

Foreign media notes that the Finnish government has a nazi (or at least a nazi-sympathizer) as a minister.

Orpo states that nazi-sympathetic conduct is unacceptable of a minister.

The Finnish government holds a motion of confidence on whether Junnila should be removed from his position as minister.

Riikka Purra, Deputy Prime Minister and leader of the True Finns, threatens to break the government if Junnila is removed.

The motion of confidence is held. Twelve congresspeople in the opposition do not attend the vote.

The National Coalition Party votes unanimously to keep a nazi as a minister.

The True Finns vote unanimously to keep a nazi as a minister.

The Christian Democrats vote unanimously to keep a nazi as a minister.

Most attending congresspeople from other parties vote to remove the nazi as a minister. Three congressmen in the Swedish People's Party vote to abstain.

An exception to this is Ben Zyskowicz, a Jewish congressman in the NCP, who abstained from voting despite being present. Notably, he was assaulted in a hate crime during his election campaign this spring.

The motion of confidence ends at 95 for, 86 against. Junnila keeps his position as minister.

Further research into Junnila's history shows that he lied about his education and experience. He had never studied political science nor had he ever worked as an entrepreneur despite his claims otherwise.

After a total of 11 days in office, Vilhelm Junnila resigns.

Is it me or dose Ainz Ooal Gown from Overlord is a way better leader and ruler than Christian Blue.

Note I have watched the First season of the anime and my god Ainz is a wonderful leader.

I had talked about Adam and Obanai are better husbands, father and male characters, than Christian Blue on my blogged. Ainz and Christian blue are powerful and strong lords, but the difference is that unlike Christian Blue, who enjoys abusing his powers and abusing/bullying innocent civilians who are just minding their business, Ainz dose not abuse his powers on the NPCs and players, instead he treats the NPCs and players as if they are real people, when he did something wrong, he will make up for it and he saved the villagers from the attack and save Nfirea. Unlike Christian Blue who enjoys treating his “love ones” mostly his family like trash, Ainz treats all of his NPCs as if they are his family, he loves and cares for them, He would let the cosdressing twin elves willingly train and he gives them rewards, he would give his NPCs gifts and he never chooses favorites. when Shalltear one his NCP’s is being brainwashed by another player, he dose his best to save her and he forgives her, instead of calling her a traitor and just killed her. Unlike Christian Blue who “chose kindness” even know he never chose kindness over everything and he seems like he doesn’t care about the humans dying or he enjoys killing them, Ainz really did chose kindness, because the way he treats his NPCs with kindness and he goes out of his way to save the villages from an attack by a very Corrupted player and he gives them protection, he didn’t go out just to kill and take over their land, he treats the other players with respect instead of killing them for no reason/for fun. I never watched the second season yet and I just wanted to point out how amazing Ainz is.

Many Finnish political leaders voiced their reaction to the victory in the US presidential election of Republican candidate Donald Trump soon after initial results were in early Wednesday local time.

Providing more extensive comments at a press conference on Wednesday evening, President Alexander Stubb said that Trump's election means that American democracy has spoken and the result is clear.

"It was a good thing that the result was clear," he told the media.

The Jyväskylä-based Keskisuomalainen noted that Stubb stressed that the alliance between Finland and the US is closer than ever, both bilaterally and in the Nato alliance.

"Finland's foreign policy stance is stable and cooperation will continue with the new administration," he said.

Stubb emphasised that Finland is a staunch supporter of transatlantic cooperation and that ties with the United States will remain strong.

"I hope that we can continue to work together to solve key world problems, such as Russia's war of aggression in Ukraine and the situation in the Middle East."

Stubb added that he anticipates pressure on European countries to increase defence spending, but said this has been happening regardless of the US election result.

Further on defence cooperation, the president restated a position he has aired before, saying, "Finland is a supplier of security in Nato, not a consumer of it."

Finland's Foreign Minister Elina Valtonen (NCP) told reporters at Parliament on Wednesday that the "strong relationship" between Finland and the United States will continue during Donald Trump's presidency.

According to Helsingin Sanomat, Valtonen went on to say, "And it's not just about our bilateral relationship. The transatlantic relationship also matters not only for Europe, but also very much for the United States. In this world, no one has too many friends."

Asked whether there was reason to be concerned that the US, under Trump, would withdraw its support from Ukraine and Europe, Foreign Minister Valtonen replied that the message from Finland and the other Nordic countries even before Trump's election was that support for Ukraine must continue.

"This is still our message to the United States. This is not just about Ukraine, but about Russia's permanent threat to European security and the entire alliance," said Valtonen.

Why a tax reveal day?

Today, 7 November, the Finnish media is awash in reports about personal incomes and personal taxes.

It is the annual "tax reveal day," when the income and taxes of every taxpayer are made public.

Iltalehti is among the many outlets publishing tax information – in its case, data on everyone in the country who earned at least 120,000 euros last year. It is also reporting on the earnings and tax information of other decision-makers, influencers and public figures.

In a kick-off to the day, Perttu Kauppinen, editor-in-chief of Iltalehti, defended the exceptional transparency of Finnish tax data. In his view, this is absolutely a good thing.

"Public access to tax data helps people to understand where tax revenue comes from, who pays most of the income tax in Finland and how the distribution of income in society develops," he stated.

As the paper points out, critics of the practice have dubbed it "envy day".

In 2013, for example, Finland's current president, then foreign trade minister, Alexander Stubb, criticised the publication of individuals' tax data as "a bit perverse" and added the hashtag #envy, to his English-language Twitter post.

However, there is a long and well-established tradition of tax disclosure in Finland. It is considered part of Finland's open society.

IL argues that it enables people to monitor the development of income inequalities and income distribution, and to assess their fairness and the fairness of taxation.

Kauppinen believes that the reporting of tax data by entertainment figures and celebrities also contributes to the provision of important social information.

"Tax information tells us what kind of income a celebrity who, for example, flaunts a lavish lifestyle and luxury products on social media, is actually getting," Iltalehti's editor-in-chief pointed out.

A number of papers, including Savon Sanomat report that a survey of values and attitudes by the business lobby Eva shows that a majority of Finns approve of the disclosure of their personal tax information.

According to the survey, more than 60 percent of Finns say they are simply not bothered by the disclosure.

On the other hand, the survey also reveals that more than half of Finns consider the annual publication of tax data to be a pointless media circus. However, the same proportion say that the public release of tax data is important for transparency in society.

Less screen time

The Uutissuomalainen news group reports that a large proportion of young people aged 15-29 in Finland would like to reduce their use of social media and online games, according to a survey commissioned by the Finnish Association for Substance Abuse Prevention (EHYT).

Of the more than 1,000 young people who responded to the survey, 31 percent would like to reduce their use of social media, 7 percent their online gaming and 20 percent both.

Many of the young people, 43 percent, said they had noticed some or a significant amount of harm from social media usage among their friends.

Typical drawbacks identified were the impact on concentration when studying, and the impact on physical or mental wellbeing and the effect on time use. Perceived benefits included the ability to keep in touch with friends and family, access information and the opportunity for self-expression.

The survey shows that in families, rules on the use of digital communication devices have not yet become widespread. Just under half of young people said that there were no rules on phone use in their home.

Mild winter in store

Helsingin Sanomat turns to the latest seasonal forecast by the private Finnish weather service Foreca that predicts winter in Finland is likely to be warmer and wetter than usual.

Based on projections by the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts for the period between December and February, Finland and its immediate area look set to have the largest deviations from average temperatures.

Precipitation is forecast to be higher than usual, which may mean a very snowy winter for northern Finland.

Overall, Finland's temperature deviation from the average could be two degrees Celsius or more. If this happens, weather in the heart of winter will differ significantly from the same period last year. At that time, Finland was generally 1–3 degrees colder than usual.

Two notable defeats handed to the far right in European elections over the weekend. 🇩🇪🇫🇮

In the German state of Thuringia, the candidate of the extremist AfD unexpectedly was upset by the candidate for the moderate center-right CDU in a runoff for district administrator of Saale-Orla. The position of district administrator (Landrat) is roughly equivalent to a county board chair/president in the US.

AfD loses run-off in first vote since mass-deportation story

Christian Herrgott of the conservative CDU beat out far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) candidate Uwe Thrum in a regional run-off election in the eastern German state of Thuringia on Sunday. The vote was viewed by political observers as a barometer for the AfD's popularity at a time when damaging headlines may have dented its alarming nationwide momentum. The vote was the first since Correctiv, an investigative journalism outfit, published a report outlining a November meeting in which AfD politicians and far-right extremists — including Austrian neo-Nazi Martin Sellner of the Identitarian Movement — discussed plans for the mass deportation of foreigners and unassimilated German citizens should they come to power. The story sparked outrage and led to numerous rallies across the country in which more than one million people turned out to demonstrate against right-wing extremism and for democracy. AfD candidate Thrum had led the race safely before the Correctiv report was released — he dominated the general election two weeks ago with 45.7% of the vote compared to Herrgott's 33.3% — but only gained 47.6% of the vote to Herrgott's 52.4% on Sunday. Herrgott, the 39-year-old leader of the CDU state party in Thuringia, has been a state parliamentarian since 2014 and will take up his post as district administrator on February 9.

So Herrgott ran 12.4% behind Thrum in the first round but ended up beating Thrum by 4.8% in the runoff. Presumably voters from other pro-democracy parties united Herrgott to lift him to victory.

In any country, unity among pro-democracy forces is necessary to defeat fascism.

Meanwhile, Finland held the first round of its presidential election on Sunday to replace retiring President Sauli Niinistö.

Former Prime Minister Alexander Stubb of the pro-EU center-right National Coalition Party (NCP) (Kokoomus) came in first place with 27.2% of the vote. Former Foreign Minister Pekka Haavisto, a member of the Green League (Vihreät) but running as an independent, came in second place with 25.8%. Stubb and Haavisto move forward to the runoff on February 11th.

Edged out of the runoff was Speaker of Parliament Jussi Halla-aho of the far right Finns Party (Perussuomalaiset) who received 19.0% of the vote and finished third.

Finland’s Stubb and Haavisto head for runoff in presidential election

As neither Stubb nor Haavisto secured the 50 percent needed to win outright in the first round, the two will now go head to head in a second round on February 11.  [ ... ] “Of course it’s nice to come first in the first round, but everything starts again tomorrow morning; the election starts again,” Stubb told reporters as the vote count drew to a close.  The result marked the latest step in an unlikely comeback for Stubb, an ebullient and at times divisive politician, who walked away from Finnish politics in 2017 after a brief stint as prime minister ended in a parliamentary election defeat.  [ ... ] Stubb has said Russia’s attack on Ukraine in 2022 drew him back into the political fray; like his rival Haavisto he has said he will take a hard line against Finland’s giant eastern neighbor.  Presidents in Finland take a leading role in foreign policy and serve as the country’s commander-in-chief, meaning the looming shift from widely respected incumbent Sauli Niinistö, who has reached Finland’s limit of two six-year terms, to Stubb or Haavisto is on the radar of international leaders.  [ ... ] Haavisto also has a long foreign policy track record. He is often less forceful in debates than Stubb, but is seen as a quietly effective operator.  Both candidates represent mainstream political parties in Finland: Stubb as a longtime lawmaker with the center-right National Coalition Party and Haavisto with the center-left Green Party. 

Stubb and Haavisto are staunchly pro-Ukraine. Finland fought a war with Stalin's Soviet Union and has few illusions about its eastern neighbor. Even Halla-aho, unlike the leaders of some other far right parties, is not a fan of Putin's Russia.

On a personal note, Haavisto would become Finland's first LGBTQ president if he wins on February 11th.

Finland’s ‘DJ’ candidate hopes to become the country’s first Green and gay president

Finland recently joined NATO. If it also elects a gay president then homophobe Vladimir Putin might get conniptions. 🤯
