Mass immigration in Finland is becoming an issue that is dividing Finnish politicians apart. The Ministry of Justice is seemingly becoming so disturbed about it and news reaching Hej Åland has indicated that they have now taken it upon themselves to instruct all newly city council officials from the recent municipal elections as to what constitites hate speech.
According to Europe News, the Finnish political elites are dumbstruck that the average Finn has voted into power, in sweeping numbers, politicians who will address the people’s concern about mass immigration. Some politicians have said that, those of them who continue to raise a serious complaint about mass immigration, are either being called a racist or entertaining racist thoughts.
Some of the politicians have indicated that they are not racist and that they are not against immigrants or immigrant groups, but against the current government politicies in regards to mass immigration as being the only solution in solving the supposed crises in the work market. They also expressed concern with the government turning a blind eye to the criminal activity amongst Finland’s immigrant community.
News monitored from YLE revealed that the minister of Justice said, anti-immigration attitudes are now presently a problem, but council leaders will be trained to censor all kinds of slander.
In this year’s municipal election there has ben a huge participation by Finns with foreign backgrounds. In Finnish law Foreign residents are entitles to vote in municipal elections and run as candidates.
