Finns Party minister apologises over far-right comments and connections
yle.fi
The new Minister of Economic Affairs Vilhelm Junnila (Finns) gave a speech for a neo-Nazi umbrella organisation in 2019 and joked about the number '88,' a symbol for extremist movements.

The new government of Finland is in general farther to the right economically than any other government in the country since the 1930s.

    The article paraphrases him as saying he was young back then and wouldn’t do something like that now. It was four years ago when he was thirty-seven years old. I really dislike the bullshit people get away with these days.
