“A friend’s tractor” on ex-minister Krauze’s farm

Party leaders answer 7 important questions

What will the next Saeima do with the Istanbul Convention?

Election intrigue — will Šlesers be in the coalition?

The rapid rise of 'Suverēnā vara' – at Šlesers' expense?

Ruling parties - get a grip!

Exactly, Rihard, is the @VL_TBLNNK Minister of the Interior, whose advisor you are, ready to make a decision rather than, in PRO style, shift responsibility to others? The Ministry of the Interior has the mandate, services, information. And on 16.09 my request to provide the necessary information. Go ahead, @RihardsKols, work.

@saliktengriba Typical of progressives. Half the street has been given over, but there are no cyclists.

Another example of why we don't need 'them' in Latvia!

Prime Minister Andris Kulbergs (AS) has called for terminating consultancy contracts in the merger process of Tet and LMT and starting direct talks with the companies.

Today we met with Riga residents near Vērmanes Garden – we listened to people and explained the most important goals and actions of “Austošā Saule Latvijai” (Rising Sun for Latvia). A Swedish pensioner couple also passed by, and the lady asked what we were doing here. I explained that on Saturday, 3 October, elections are taking place in Latvia. Such small nuances – she asked what kind of elections they were and how many Saeima deputies we have in total. I explained all that. The lady said that they themselves had just had elections and that there has been complete chaos there for years. She asked what kind of party we are – left, centrist, or right? I replied that we are a national right-wing party. She then asked what we stand for and what we want to change. Here I directly mentioned migration from third countries – that we do not just want to “control” it, but completely stop it. Her counter-question was: but how will you live without innovations? I answered directly: they bring no innovations. Then I asked a counter-question – to honestly say whether Sweden has excessive immigration? In return I got the answer that no, there is no migration problem at all! She was completely at peace with the fact that representatives of Somalia, Syria, and other radical countries are joining society. The lady said she had worked in a museum and told me that in the 17th century there had been more migrants in Sweden than now. I did not argue about the numbers, but clearly pointed out the obvious – at that time it was European migration between European countries, not third-country migrants with a radical, aggressive culture and a completely different understanding of human rights and basic hygiene. The lady even agreed with that. This conversation once again confirmed my conviction about which generation is the one that let everything go to hell for the young people and does not even feel guilty – it is the left with their blind political correctness. Facts remain facts, and we will not repeat these mistakes in Latvia.

@ProBono_Latvia @MarisKucinskis @LatvijasLoto @Finmin @Apvienotais_ What's the difference. The goal is the same. It doesn't matter at all who delivers.
