15th Estonian Parliament, 3rd session, plenary session.
The political stance is firmly opposed to increasing taxes and state levies, viewing this as an unjust financial burden on citizens and an attempt to shift state responsibilities. Criticism is leveled both at the policy substance itself (such as the rising cost of official documents and the impact of land tax on agriculture) and at the legislative procedures used. The speaker represents the position of the Conservative People's Party of Estonia (EKRE), maintaining strong opposition to both draft laws.

The political stance is strongly opposed to the government's tax policy, specifically the abolition of the income tax exemption for pensioners receiving the average pension.

The political framework is primarily results- and ethics-based, demanding the minister's resignation.
