There is not enough data.

The social focus is on economic inequality, emphasizing that raising the VAT disproportionately affects the poor. This highlights concern regarding social justice and the distribution of the tax burden.

There is not enough data.

The primary social issue is education, with emphasis placed on the problems of valuing teachers and addressing mental burnout. There is strong opposition to educational inequality stemming from a family's socio-economic status, city of birth, or local municipality. Accessibility to the education system at every level is considered the foundation of a strong state.

No data available

The social focus is directed toward rural residents, who are treated as the weakest group in society and against whom an injustice has been committed. The issue is framed as a question of social justice, where the state is harming its most vulnerable citizens.

The main social issue is education policy and guaranteeing free school meals, which is considered a very just objective. The speaker criticizes the state's inability to fulfill this social obligation, which has led to ambiguity and an increased burden on local municipalities.

In the social sector, emphasis is placed on the shortage of care home places and the high costs involved, which constitute a major financial burden for residents in Southeast Estonia. Regarding security, professional weapons training is supported for national defense purposes, but the availability of small arms is rejected in order to protect public safety from school shootings.

Not enough data

The primary social focus centers on income inequality, measured by the Gini coefficient, and how tax policy is exacerbating this gap. The goal is to protect poorer segments of the population (addressing the impact of VAT) and ensure the well-being of society as a whole, not just the rich. There is strong criticism regarding the pressure placed on lower-income groups to contribute disproportionately more via consumption taxes (VAT).

In the social sphere, the speaker focuses on protecting vulnerable groups (students, individuals with reduced work ability) within employment relationships. They emphasize concerns regarding the salary competitiveness of staff in special welfare institutions, noting that it has lagged behind that of institutions providing general care services, and call for solutions to address this disparity.
