labour defeat

by Harri Ahola (not verified) - 09/06/2009 - 08:40

It is clear labour suffered defeat and socialdemocracy is looking for new directions. Still the left party in Finland got its way to EU as well as five years ago. But the favour of National Coalition Party is on the spotlight. There is now a true supporters of 24 per cent for NCP. I think the labour party defeated because labour is going outside EU to cheaper countries. So who needs labour in Europe when simple work is all outsourced.
