"#Finland #election: tight race has Marin’s #SDP polling behind far right - Long coalition talks may follow Sunday, with conservative #NCP not ruling out deal with #populist #Finns
Four years after she became the world’s youngest prime minister, Finland’s Sanna Marin faces a battle to keep her job on Sunday in an unpredictable election so tight that it could be won by any of the country’s three main parties.

Marin, now 37, took the reins of the Social Democratic party (SDP) – and the Finnish premiership – in 2019 and has since piloted the traditionally non-aligned Nordic country through the Covid pandemic and to the brink of Nato membership."

What a feeling after #sauna. Did you know that almost all the #Finns who have sauna, heat it on Saturday eve? This is a sauna night! Bathing day! And if you wonder what this gif is about, Angry Birds was invented in Finland! 😊 And it was all I found! 😆 #saturdaynight #finland #suomi

Damn you, #Finns, you smug bastards...

Although it's amusing that this article is trying to make us all compare ourselves to you.

THE ALTERNATIVE - Finland’s at the top of the World Happiness Index - again. But it comes from controlling your life, and trusting others, than blithe optimism — THE ALTERNATIVE

Really interesting read on the fact that #Finland is top of the #happiness league table - again.

What is it about #Finns or #Finnishness (is that a word?) that leaves them content?

After dumping #Helsinki’s car-centric 1968 plan, the #Finns embarked on a decades-long campaign to slow motor vehicles. “In the 1970s it was normally 50km/h in cities; then in 2000 it went down to 40km/h. Now more than half our urban streets have a 30km/h limit.”
