Finland had parliamentary election yesterday. They had a left wing government of five parties in the last term. The top three are the big winners in terms of seats: Kokoomus / National Coalition Party - 48 seats Perussuomalaiset / Finns Party - 46 seats SPD/ Demars / Social Democrat Party - 43 seats The next three are the greatest losers on the same terms: Kesk / Centre Party - 23 seats, I heard they lik 4chan, libs, but closer to classic lib, Wikipee tells me they are agrarian too Vasemmistoliitto / Left Alliance - 11 seats Vihreät / Green Party - 13 seats These gained the same amount of mandates: Svenska folkpartiet / Swedish People's Party - 9 seats, these are libs Kristillisdemokraatit (how fucking cute and adorable) / Christian Democrats - 5 seats Liike Nyt / Movement Now - 1 seat, seems maybe classic liberal, litrelly one bloke They are still in the beginning of the process, now the winning party can contemplate with whom they will form Coalition. For the majority they need 101 seats from the 200 of the Finnish legislature. The Kokoomus can get by without the PerusS, if they can get by with Sanna's party. Since the Trüe Finns are literally Hitler most parties snub them hard. Anyway for a simple majority at least one other party is needed, either for 48+46=94 or 48+43=91 representatives. Hard pick, because it the Xtian Democrats look natural allies, that's just 5 seats. They might invite the Keks perhaps, or the Swedes. I don't see the lefts or the Greens in the coalition. However with NCP/Finns/SPD great coalition they could get a 2/3 majority! This really could depend if SPD is willing to form government with the Finns, and what they could use the 2/3 for. If there are common causes they support, they could implement those quick and easy. I want to speculate about one thing. The NATO expansion. I dunno how much attention was on on this question during the campaign, but I think most voters were pro-NATO. So Marin "making and closing the deal" could have swayed some voters towards her direction. I don't see any reason why our government and legislation opposed so much Finland's entrance, the deal was made last week, basically just before the Finnish election. I suspect it was a marketing tactic to hold off, a deal between the two governments, so they could boost their numbers with the last minute good news. Too many women in Finnish politics. I like the logo of SKE.
