"Yesterday (10 March), the Finnish parliament's Grand Committee, which deals with EU policy, voted against giving its government a mandate to increase the contribution of Finland's loan guarantee in the EFSF. Finland's current share is €8 billion and there has been talk that this amount could double. The Finns appear to be deadly serious, as the vote was taken even despite the government having not yet formally asked for a mandate. Growing resentment of the EU in Finland is playing into the hands of the country's burgeoining anti-euro party, True Finns, and their leader, Timo Soini, who is being portrayed as a dark horse in upcoming national elections this spring. "Now [we must help] those people who have lied – this is the suspicious mind up north, because quite many people think the south is milking the cow," Soini was quoted as saying about euro bailouts."
