102 509

I'm not jumping for joy, but the EP election results are... satisfactory.

Tarand's recently best known for the whole "kommarid ahju" debacle, so he definitely seems in dire need of this on his wall; but he won't do much damage as an independent in Brussels, and as a wake-up call to the major parties to get their fingers out, we could all do much worse.

For what it's worth, I don't buy the 40,000 EEK line; I saw his campaign ad at a movie theater, and that can't be cheap. But if he seems arrogant, it's because he has every right to be.

Say "kommarid ahju" and I think of Juku-Kalle Raid.

Say "Indrek Tarand" and I think of the scandal with Kristiina Ojuland.

I think he's referring to the 'vene lits' debacle.
