Espoo is a large city by area. I promise to defend services for people living in Espoo from Westend to Kalajärvi and from Kauklahti to Otaniemi. Everyone living in Espoo must have good value for the money they pay in taxes.
It’s very important for Finland to recruit trained social and healthcare workers from abroad. We need to ensure they have sufficient language skills and knowledge of Finnish work practices.
