By Plenary Sessions: Mart Helme

The speaker strongly opposes the hate speech law imposed by the European Union, seeing it as a threat to democratic freedoms. Other social issues are not addressed.

There is too little data.

Insufficient data.

The conflict between rural residents and urbanized society over predator management and animal welfare is sharply addressed among the social themes. It is stressed that urbanization has led to an unhealthy perspective on the role of animals, both in the wild and on the farm, which creates significant friction. Additionally, the broader issue of invasive species and the associated risks of disease transmission are examined.

A dominant social theme is strong opposition to COVID-19 era restrictions and vaccination, which are widely viewed as human rights violations and having a fascist undertone. Particular emphasis is placed on opposing the right of children (aged 13–14) to make independent medical decisions regarding vaccination, in defense of parental authority.

Among the social issues being brought up is the plan to make women conscripts, referencing statements made by the head of the Women's Home Defence League and subsequent media discussion. The speaker uses this topic as an example of government secrecy and the hushing up of plans, without taking a direct position either for or against the proposal itself. A second topic is the fueling of war hysteria, which is deemed detrimental to actually strengthening the country's defense capabilities.

There is not enough data.

Social issues are not the primary focus, but there is mention of the deteriorating financial situation of large families due to the car tax. The issue of equal treatment on the Riigikogu premises is also raised concerning police authority (specifically, comparing a traffic violation to intoxicated behavior within the chamber).
