Svenska folkpartiet i Finland

In the Swedish People’s Party the person is a priority. We believe in the individual and that a person is able and willing to be responsible to themselves and to others. We cherish a society that is built on compassion and solidarity. We will always look after those who are vulnerable or are at risk of being excluded. A responsible, sustainable long-term economic policy is vital in order to be able to guarantee and develop Finland as a welfare state. The most important issue is the creation of new jobs, as work is what funds welfare. Through improved tax and employment policies we can make it possible for companies to invest in Finland, and enable them to develop their business and employ new people. The Swedish People’s Party says no to racism and hostility towards foreigners. Finland needs immigration and will accept its humanitarian responsibility for refugees. We do not tolerate discrimination based on sex, skin colour, religion, language, sexual orientation or background.
