By Plenary Sessions: Martin Helme

The speaker exhibits profound expertise in tax policy and public finance, referencing the Finance Committee's reports on tax receipts and analyzing the underlying causes of tax collection (corporate and personal income tax). He draws upon historical precedents (the lowering of alcohol and diesel excise duties) and an analysis of Latvia's VAT reduction on food items to substantiate his arguments regarding the positive effects of tax cuts. He employs technical terminology such as the shadow economy, capitalization, and purchasing power.

The speaker demonstrates knowledge of international maritime transit and security, detailing the ship's route through European waters (Suez, Greece, Italy, France, Gibraltar). Specific terminology, such as the "Russian shadow fleet," is employed, and reference is made to the sanctions policies implemented by other nations. Furthermore, the speaker references the failed testing of Estonia's civil defense alarm system, demonstrating awareness of shortcomings in national defense and civil security.

The speaker demonstrates detailed knowledge of the exceptions to the Aliens Act, particularly concerning the 1.5-times salary criterion and the importation of non-quota labor. Data from Statistics Estonia regarding unemployment is utilized, referencing the highest unemployment rate seen in the last 12 years, even though the statistics presented by the government are considered "misleading nonsense." Furthermore, the topics of productivity and production inputs are addressed within an economic context.

The speaker presents himself as an expert in the field of constitutional law and security, stressing that security agencies possess all the necessary means to defend the state. He demonstrates knowledge in the critique of climate science, highlighting specific, albeit controversial, figures regarding CO2 levels and geological history. Furthermore, he is familiar with the impacts of trans ideology related to the issue of gender representation in Western countries.

The speaker demonstrates detailed expertise regarding the Name Act, citing specific sections and points (Section 7, subsection 3, points 2 and 4). A clear distinction is drawn between changing a name and the procedure for changing gender (changing the personal identification code), utilizing legal terminology such as "discretionary power" and "gender dysphoria." This expertise is used to legally discredit the actions of the government.

He references specific legislation and schedules (such as the taxation of pensions starting from the first euro, and the outcomes of the reduction in diesel excise duty).

The speaker demonstrates knowledge of international security and defense policy, referencing the positions of the USA, Finland, Poland, and other countries regarding the deployment of troops to Ukraine, as well as the conditions of NATO Article 5.

He references the average wage level in Harju County (€2,000) to support his economic argument.
