Oh look, transport and communications minister Anne Berner (CP) isn't running for a second term - not that she had to in the first place - but instead is running for a post in Skandinaviska Enskilda Banken AB, a financial group. I guess her work is pretty much done, whatever that was.

Bern 'er was Sipilä's personal pseudo-Kok first term choice for minister past career Kepus and now she wouldn't wait for the elections to announce this. Not that she could have helped Kepu by anything but dying, but this here eats Sipilä's personal authority. :berned:

WARNING! INTRUDERS DETECTED

Berner had already said a few years ago when she was busy tearing everything down that she had no intent of remaining in politics ever again. I wonder if Kokoomus will copycat this and start rotating a bunch hatchetmen in various ministry positions - instead of squamous lawyers skulking into EU politics like Itälä, Katainen and Stubb, these MBAs and business school graduates will gently caress off to the board of the highest-bidding company once they're done. At least Suvi Lindén switched to selling arms to African dictators like a normal politician.

Suvi-Anne Siimes switched from being a communist leader to drugs and gambling, by that standard Berner should start a SPECTRE-like organization. Maybe that is what SEB hired her for, I don't know.

I was wondering what a suojatyöpaikka she would end up in. Pretty ballsy not even waiting for the elections to pass. Kepu is pissed off.

I really hate Berner though so the possibility of her never setting foot on Finnish soil is a bonus in my books though.

Betrayal at Kepu continues

quote:

Ruotsalainen pankkikonserni SEB kertoo Uudelle Suomelle, että tuleva uusi hallitus pitäisi ensimmäisen kokouksensa jo 26. maaliskuuta eli nykyisen vaalikauden aikana. Berner on tähän saakka korostanut, että yhtiön hallituksen ensimmäinen kokous järjestetään eduskuntavaalien jälkeen huhtikuun lopulla.

Berneriä esitetään SEB:n hallitukseen. Oikeuskansleri Tuomas Pöysti ei ole katsonut, että Berner olisi esteellinen toimimaan SEB:n hallituksessa.

PÖYSTI kommentoi nyt IS:lle sähköpostitse, että hänen arvionsa perustui Bernerin antamaan myöhempään päivämäärään. Berner ilmoitti oikeuskanslerille, että ensimmäinen pörssiyhtiön hallituksen kokous järjestetään 29. huhtikuuta eli vasta eduskuntavaalien jälkeen.

There are two kinds of banks in this world. Those that have been fined for money laundering their clients' money, and those that haven't been caught yet.

Ei jeesus. On the other hand if all the alt-right idiots move to their own little echo chamber, then the rest of us can be left alone and the police can easily keep tabs on them.

I'm still trying to figure out, if there is anything that will hurt Kok for the coming elections. I thought that the whole vanhusvaalit would be bad for Kok, but they seem to still be teflon.
Any ideas?

Kok's core supporters are literal fanatics, so I doubt they'll drop under 15%.

The whole Esperi scandal is really bad for Kok. That's why they've been entering flipmode since that began.

Liike Nyt is also bad for Kok, but the extent of how bad, we don't know. Nytten might hoover up Kok votes in critical districts and cause losses to Kok.

Sure but even they seem to be afraid of pushing a proper paradigm shift from economy first kind of thinking to enviromental and human rights issues on the top when doing political stuff and all.
