Fifteenth Riigikogu, Fifth Session, Plenary Session.
The rhetorical style is dual: initially, questions are presented formally and data-driven, but when criticizing the bill, it becomes extremely aggressive and informal. Strong and derogatory language ("in the shitter") is used to completely discredit both the previous and the proposed bill, emphasizing emotional and contemptuous opposition.

The tone is formal, but the speaker is not afraid to point toward political self-promotion and the suspicion surrounding "roof money" (pork-barrel spending/earmarks).
