By Plenary Sessions: Rene Kokk

The political stance is strongly anti-government, particularly on the issue of local government funding, where they criticize the imposition of mandates without corresponding state financing. The speaker opposes raising the land tax under the guise of "autonomy," calling it a way to financially choke the people. Furthermore, he heavily emphasizes the importance of maintaining food security and supporting domestic food production. The policy framework is primarily focused on criticizing the inefficiency and illogical nature of the government's actions.

The political focus centers on the implementation of the European Union's environmental protection objectives, particularly the target for 30% strictly protected areas. They are adopting a moderately skeptical stance, requesting clarification on whether this goal pertains solely to terrestrial areas or includes marine zones as well, while simultaneously voicing apprehension regarding the potential development of a "business" model similar to the CO2 quota system. Their position is primarily directed at the specifics of policy execution and its economic ramifications.

The political focus is currently on the crisis of confidence surrounding e-voting, stressing that the 40% level of public distrust has crossed all lines. This stance is strongly opposed to the current status quo, accusing the relevant authorities and the coalition (especially the Reform Party) of a lack of political will and outright inaction. The demand to restore this lost trust is primarily framed as a failure of performance and results on the part of the government and the responsible agencies.

The most prominent topics are the extraordinary taxation of the banking sector and adherence to the procedural rules of the Riigikogu. The speaker strongly supports the taxation of banks' extraordinary profits and is critical of the government, which taxes other sectors while leaving banks untouched. The second strong position is the opposition to the government's procedural actions, which are considered "arrogance" and a violation of norms. The political framework is primarily policy-based (taxation) and procedural (legitimacy of the procedure).

The speaker strongly emphasizes issues of government action and accountability, particularly concerning failed IT projects. The stance is forceful and results-driven, highlighting the waste of public funds on non-operational information systems, such as the dysfunctional examination information system. The political framework is clearly aimed at criticizing the government's administrative capacity and demanding accountability.

The speaker opposes the tax currently under discussion, viewing it primarily as a measure to fill budget gaps rather than a targeted policy initiative. His political stance is strongly critical of the government's activities, focusing particularly on the quality of their lawmaking and their disregard for established good practices. The criticism targets both the substance of the policy and the ethical dimension of the government's actions (hypocrisy).
