The tone is decisive, emotional, and critical; a striking metaphor—the "total mess" (kobarkäkk)—is employed, alongside a strong moral appeal directed at the audience. The text features questions and exclamations that stimulate attention and underscore the urgency, but argumentation based on factual information and examples remains the dominant approach. The topics are addressed respectfully, but the viewpoints are strongly positioned and emotionally charged.

The style is specific, challenging, and emotionally sharp, frequently employing rhetorical questions and a strong personal tone. It opens with clarifications and accusations (the tax festival, the coalition, mandates), and utilizes examples and emotional references concerning the plight of pensioners and consumers. Critical phrases are often repeated, and the speaker addresses the audience directly (the Speaker of the Riigikogu, colleagues, the Prime Minister).

The tone is formal and investigative; it begins with thanks and adherence to protocol, then poses specific and well-formulated questions to colleagues. It adopts an inclusive style, addressing colleagues by name, and promotes dialogue and cooperation. Emotionally moderate, the emphasis is placed on the exchange of ideas and the clarification of issues.

The tone is critically legalistic and decisively argumentative; it uses fact-based evidence and questions to expose the government's shortcomings. The speech is clearly structured, occasionally rhetorically sharp ("is the current government...?") and focuses on concrete policy recommendations (lowering VAT on food, energy policy). The texts note a forceful, yet not hypercritical tone, and examples such as power outages and regional inequality are used to heighten the emotional resonance.

A data- and fact-based, formal, and question-centric style.
