At a recent campaign rally in her hometown, Tampere, Finland, Prime Minister Sanna Marin defended her time in office and tore into the rising right-wing populist Finns Party, which opposes immigration and is fiercely critical of the European Union.
Ms. Marin remains remarkably popular after governing for three and a half years, through the pandemic, the war in Ukraine and Finland’s rapid decision to join NATO — despite her assurance only a month before Russia invaded that Finland would never join the alliance on her watch.
But with most Finns now focused on other matters, particularly inflation and rising public debt, she is at risk of losing her job in Sunday’s parliamentary elections.

Sure hope so. France is definitely on the rocks, despite the total MSM blackout.

Slipping? I’d like to see her in one.
Is she the one filmed dancing in a nightclub and the citizens treating it as a big scandal? Or maybe that was Iceland. Both ladies look alike.
As clouds darken the horizon, some will want leaders instead of clowns.
I hope Finland chooses a leader. I fear the US is stuck with clowns
“Ms. Marin remains remarkably popular after governing for three and a half years...”
“...she is at risk of losing her job in Sunday’s parliamentary elections.”
Make up your mind!
She’s the one.
“... and women shall rule them.”
Could only fervently wish that bloodthirsty vampiress Victoria Nuland had five sons in Bakhmut.
They saw what happened in the Netherlands when they failed to adequately rig the elections. They won’t make the same mistake, Sanna Marin will be protected
Good result. Commies collapsed and the right gained seats. You’ll be glad to know this means Finland’s aid to Ukraine will increase.
The only people cheaper than Finns are old-time Scots, and French Canadians...
