The coalition is sharply criticized for its procedural rigidity, as they failed to consider the willingness of the initiators of the second bill to compromise and did not advance both bills equally. The criticism is aimed at procedural and political choices.

15th Riigikogu, 4th session, plenary session
Strong opposition is directed at the governing coalition, which faces criticism for lacking the political will necessary to support legislation beneficial to working people. The coalition stands accused of hypocrisy: they demand a massive impact assessment just to grant a single day off, yet they accept tax hikes without requiring one. The chance of reaching a compromise is viewed as a miracle, suggesting very low expectations for cooperation.

15th Riigikogu, 4th session, plenary sitting
The opposition is directed at the coalition over the car tax issue, demanding economic justifications that would increase people's wealth and reduce regional inequality. Furthermore, the minister's record is being set straight regarding the years spent in the EKRE government, as they defend their political background against inaccuracies.

Fifteenth Riigikogu, fourth session, plenary session
The confrontation is aimed at the government, directly criticizing the Minister of Justice’s actions regarding the closure of courthouses, viewing this as a distinctly negative issue.

The speaker urges the government to heed the opposition's proposals.
