MP Olli Immonen reinforces that the PS is a xenophobic and racist party
by Migrant Tales, under Enrique Tessieri
After the EU election victories of the National Front of France, UKIP and the Danish People’s Party, Perussuomalaiset (PS)* MP Olli Immonen lashes out against Muslims on a blog entry, claiming that Europe is being overtaken by Muslims.
This latest attack by Immonen against Muslims, migrants and non-white Finns, is a good example that the PS is a xenophobic party with deep far-right roots that loathes cultural diversity. Immonen’s stance is no different from the ethnic war drums that politicians like Marine Le Pen’s National Front and Geert Wilders’ Party of Freedom are beating.
This is how it was written allready 2014.

Finnish MP poses with far-right extremists

Olli Immonen, an MP for the populist Finns Party in the ruling coalition, is at the centre of a media storm in Finland after a photo emerged of him posing with far-right extremists.
The photo was posted by the MP himself on Facebook late on Tuesday (16 June) and shows Immonen with individuals from the Finnish Resistance Movement at the memorial stone of nationalist Eugen Schauman.

Schauman committed suicide in 1904 after killing the Russian governor general of Finland, which was at this time still under Russian rule.
The Resistance Movement is openly national socialist and revolutionary. It's led from Sweden by Klas Lund, who has been convicted of several crimes, including manslaughter.
In Finland members of the group have been convicted for stabbings of immigrants, assaults on political opponents, and an attack against the Pride march in Helsinki in 2012.
Immonen is the chair of the controversial group Suomen Sisu, home of the far-right fringe within the Finns Party. Teemu Lahtinen, Suomen Sisu founder and Finns Party city councilor in the municipality of Espoo is also pictured in the photo. But Immonen denied there are formal links between the two movements.
"Suomen Sisu and the Finnish Resistance Movement have not co-operated", he told Helsingin Sanomat.
In December, on the Finnish Day of Independence, Immonen openly supported a march that included numerous members of the Resistance Movement as security detail.
The march was organised by known far-right activists, who also participated in the memorial event for Schauman.
In April, after the Finnish parliamentary elections, Immonen also wrote that he wishes to see a "nationalist revolution".
Oh, yeeh,
