The real origin of this “scandal” says all you need to know.
Nobody likes to see videos of themselves from a party the night before. They’re almost always embarrassing documents of how inexplicably sweaty you were, your flailing dance moves and misplaced confidence, the way your makeup slid slowly around your face. But for the Finnish prime minister, 36-year-old Sanna Marin, a video of her partying was a little more than embarrassing., dancing for the camera and looking drunk, which managed to kick off a full-on scandal in Finland.
The situation has invited some comparison to our own political troubles, but parties are not currently illegal in Finland, as they were whenfor having several gatherings during lockdowns. So why does anyone in Finland care about this? Why are the Fins, in fact, being such staggeringly huge losers about it? So square are these people, Marin was forced to take a drug test to prove that she wasn’t under the influence of narcotics while she was out.
