Nothing to reproach Spalvēns for his readiness to soap up in time.

A small victory. The majority of the Media Ethics Council acknowledged that in my articles I may call the pro-Kremlin 'Suverēnā vara' pro-Kremlin. Only Delfi's Spalvēns thought I couldn't. 🧐

You pay for it, stupid taxpayers.

Latvian radio journalist 🤦 Mihails Ņikulkins reports that Ainārs Šlesers and his wife Dana, as well as Edvards Smiltēns and his wife Smiltene, will participate in the Saeima elections. 🤦 https://t.co/djdZQOzIjh

An event and discussion that should not have happened, because children's safety is a priority. Owners must supervise and be responsible for their dogs. Speaking about the rules regarding dogs - Latvia already has a significantly strengthened legal framework in force. https://t.co/97vrIyEkfY

‼️The dog owner is responsible for the behavior of their animal – the Ministry of Agriculture has already significantly strengthened previous requirements this year: https://t.co/Q2AZO83wMT https://t.co/leEAk4AEJI

Since the beginning of the kf invasion of Ukraine, several hundred Latvians have delivered 7500+ cars to Ukraine's defenders 🚙. This September, the Pildegovičs family also joined this volunteer group, delivering a vehicle from Riga to the defenders of Chernihiv. Thank you—Ukraine must win! 🇱🇻♥️🇺🇦 https://t.co/Vvq7Wa4gVe

@MrMadis @VentsAKrauklis @Chapis All no, Ozoliņš, Nellija, Šuvajevs and other spiritually challenged ones. Even NA and Langa have calmed down.

@E_Stendzenieks @VentsAKrauklis @Chapis It is clear to a hedgehog that opinions will never coincide, there will never be a perfect party, but I feel sorry that parties openly accept obvious Kremlin supporters and Latvian disloyal vatniks! And then LPV wonders that everyone calls you a vatnik party! Fie!

«A Uzbek citizen who has committed indecent acts against a minor in the courtyard. Before that, he conducted purposeful communication with the child; at his residence he possibly stores narcotic substances. He resides in Latvia as a helper worker with a long-term visa.» Immigration must be ended. https://t.co/TA8vSpPv5v

Nothing new! We are currently at the stage Western Europe was in the early 2000s, but here these processes are moving much faster. The safety of children's playgrounds and the peace of our families are non-negotiable. If we don't act immediately, we will reach the crime levels of third countries in an instant. Immigration should not be "controlled" with paperwork - it must be stopped! On October 3, vote for "Austošā Saule Latvijai"!

@MrMadis @VentsAKrauklis @Chapis You know, if the party only had those you personally like, then you could sit with 1% like Austošā Saule.

@VentsAKrauklis @E_Stendzenieks @Chapis And what's your own opinion that so many disloyal Kremlin people have been gathered in the party? Aren't you ashamed of such members, because who knows, maybe you'll have to sit next to one! Are you happy about such members?

Domestic passenger transport is mostly subsidized. Even if the company is 100% private. In this case too, there should have been an assessment - how many euros per year the state would be willing to pay for specific routes, number of trips, and industry development specifically in Riga? And whether we can afford the intended service for the available amount.

@martinsstals @vita_teica state-owned enterprises and state participation in business in general are unnatural to human nature. Every person, when handling funds as their own, expects a proportional benefit for themselves... but state business expects that a civil servant will handle state money but the benefit will be for others!
