By Months: Peeter Ernits

The primary opponents are the coalition government and specific ministers, who are criticized both for their policies (the Tidö Agreement, controversial tax changes) and for procedural errors. The attacks are intense, accusing the government of "steamrolling" the constitution and public opinion, and only coming to their senses after intervention by the President or the Chancellor of Justice. The possibility of compromise with the government is not mentioned; instead, the emphasis is placed on opposition.

The main opponents are the Reform Party and the ruling coalition, who are called "steamrollers" and are accused of having a lax management style. Criticism is directed both at policy (wasting defense expenditures, lack of regional policy) and at procedures (rushing laws, ignoring proposed amendments). The speaker also personally criticizes ministers (Pevkur, Michal) for arrogance and avoiding responsibility, recommending that they resign (referencing the precedent set by Signe Kivi).

The sharpest criticism is aimed at the governing coalition (Reform Party, Estonia 200) and the Social Democrats, who are accused of employing "steamroller politics," arrogance, and squandering taxpayer money (EU fines). The criticism also targets the opposition parties (EKRE, Isamaa, Center Party) for the inadequate preparation of the bills they submit, although it is acknowledged that these bills channel genuine public concern. Furthermore, the influence of the media (Eesti Ekspress, Delfi) on the legislative process is criticized, with the author labeling it a characteristic of a "banana republic."

The criticism is primarily aimed at the government and the coalition (Reform Party, Estonia 200), accusing them of incompetence, bureaucratic busywork, and the destruction of state assets. Jürgen Ligi is specifically criticized for acting like the "master of the state" and for ridiculing the Minister of Justice. In foreign policy, the government is criticized for its aggressive rhetoric and double standards in relations with Russia.

The speaker sharply opposes the ruling coalition, accusing them of making political decisions detrimental to the public. The criticism targets both specific policies (the car tax, energy subsidies) and procedures (the lack of impact assessments and the fast-tracking of bills). He/She is particularly critical of Kaja Kallas’s previous term and accuses the coalition of reallocating wealth in favor of renewable energy businessmen. He/She refers to the coalition as a "minority government" and a "regime."
