They ain’t pikeys, are they?
@ 11:03 am The Helsingin Sanomat has written about some British & Irish paving labourers who apparently have not had “trouble finding work without speaking any Finnish”. So that proves false the assumption Finns are discriminating xenophobes and racists. Doing a paving job for 3500, sans receipt, when the Finnish quote is 8500-10K and the material cost alone is between 2-3K though might have something to do with the equation. Also the claim that Finnish officials are xenophobes and racists is proven wrong, as if a local Finnish resident would be driving drunk, stealing and doing black labor without paying the social fees and VAT; they’d be in serious trouble. But EU citizens are free to do whatever they effin please. So apparently there is a “need for workers” in Finland indeed and the EU has once again proven to be the source of multiculturalism that enriches the nation. Again three basic theses regarding immigrants in Finland have been proven wrong. I find this quite hilarious, though there’s an owner of a campsite full of complaining Finns (as opposed to whining foreigners) that might not think I am so funny.
Cliff notes: Snatch in Järvenpää
So the scare tactics of the moneybags holding people have met a set back here.

Yes they’d hire foreigners, as long as it doesn’t cost as much as hiring finns, so that’s still discrimination and racism.

Well if you have the same qualities as a Finn then of course you can ask for the same price. A Finnish company you can usually contact for quality and guarantee and you get it for a receipt you can use in taxes.

Finland is being invaded by foreign labor white trash it seems…
Finland needs to be more selective in who it lets into Suomi:

OFF TOPIC!;
Have a happy,drunken midsummer holiday weekend in Suomi!
BUT..keep in mind the massive carbon footprint that FINNS will inflict on Mother Earth…Thousands of bonfires on the beach…massive SAUNA
usage..AND..Massive olut4b drinking with massive grilled sausage consumption will lead to huge methane gas emissions by Finns who have no concern about their impact and contribution to man-made global warming…Suomi government needs to buy emergency carbon credits to offset the horrible abuse the Finns are imposing on Planet GAIA!

It happened so rarely that it becomes a first page new.

The HS wrote about “British and Irish nationals”, not “English and Irish”. Where does it say there were no Scots or Welsh?

Swedish women have picked up their man abuse habits from Finnish
domineering women…the Swedish men whimper and whine in submission.
Hen-pecked Finnish men just run into the woods with a bottle of Koskenkorva vodka,and a shotgun,but with no ammunition!

How many people haven’t got any sanitary insurance overthere? 30, 40%?

Winter, I get your humor but still, being a victim of female sexual abuse often means, for instance, being molested by your mom or some other female figure of authority. Is that how you would have wished to grow up or would wish for your son if you had one?
