The speaker positions himself as a strong opposition figure, focusing his criticism on the incompetence and inability of the government and key ministers (including Kallas, the Minister of the Interior, and the Minister of Regional Affairs and Agriculture). The primary political points of contention involve the centralization of education, the suspension of oil shale mining permits in Ida-Virumaa, and the imposition of unfunded mandates on local municipalities. The criticism is heavily performance-based, targeting the government's lack of action and results, rather than being fundamentally value-driven, although a moral framework is evident when addressing social issues.
