Keskusta ei hyväksy hallituksen esittämää yhteisöverokannan alentamista 20 prosenttiin — anteeksi, 20 prosentista 18 prosenttiin vuoden 2027 alusta. Arvoisa puhemies! Meillä ei ole yhteisöverokannan osalta mitään kilpailukykyongelmaa. Meidän yhteisöveroprosentti on tällä hetkellä kilpailukykyinen, 20…

Vuoden 2026 kolmanneksi lisätalousarvioksiHE 226/2026 vpArvoisa puhemies, arvoisa valtiovarainministeri! Haluaisin kiinnittää huomiota siihen, että kun katsotaan tätä kolmatta lisätalousarviota, niin sitä ei pidä tarkastella yksinään, vaan tulee katsoa, mitä ovat yhteenlaskettuna kaikki kolme lisätalousarviota suhteessa siihen tämän vuoden alkuperäiseen talousarvioon.

Valtion talousarvioksi vuodelle 2027HE 175/2026 vpArvoisa puhemies! On totta kai sanottava, että moni asia menee Suomessa tällä hetkellä hyvään suuntaan, mutta se ei kiistä sitä tosiasiaa, että meillä on edelleen ennätysmäinen työttömyys, ja se on yhteinen ongelma. Haluan kuitenkin todeta ihan vakavasti tästä yhteisöverosta, valtiovarainministeri Purra: Olen itse…

Valtion talousarvioksi vuodelle 2027HE 175/2026 vpArvoisa puhemies! Talouskasvu on ilman muuta myönteinen asia, siitä meidän kaikkien pitää iloita. Mutta sitten joutuu kysymään, että no kuka se huolehtisi siitä, että tämä julkinen talous ei mene konkurssiin. Siis tämän hallituksen aikana joka vuosi on otettu velkaa vähintään 12 miljardia, yhteensä yli 50 miljardia.…

Valtion talousarvioksi vuodelle 2027HE 175/2026 vpArvoisa puhemies! Suomen talous kasvaa viimein. Siitä voimme kaikki iloita. [Ben Zyskowicz: Tehän vaaditte suunnanmuutosta!] Nyt toivomme erityisesti, että kasvu on kestävää ja pitkäaikaista. Tavoitteenamme tulee olla vähintään kakkosella alkavat kasvuluvut.

Reforming basic education in the artsHE 115/2026 vpArvoisa puhemies! Kannan aivan erityistä huolta siitä, että nyt kun tämä uudistus tehdään ja tähän tulee mukaan uusia taidemuotoja, mikä sinänsä voi olla positiivinen asia, mutta samaan aikaan rahoitusta ei lisätä — ja senkin ymmärrän hyvin, että ei ole varaa lisätä — niin tämä lähtee heikentämään meidän toimivien…

Sending emergency warnings to mobile phonesHE 139/2026 vpArvoisa puhemies! Minä en ole niin kriittinen kuin edustaja Heinonen edellä. Politiikassa pitää katsoa tuulilasista eteenpäin eikä peruutuspeilistä taaksepäin, ja silloin kun on kiitoksen paikka, pitää antaa kiitos, ja nyt on semmoinen paikka, että nyt tämä on tuotu tänne. Maailma muuttuu koko ajan, eivät nämä…
