Perussuomalaiset (PS) MP James Hirvisaari, who was convicted for ethnic agitation in December, announced Saturday on Twitter that he was “pressured” to resign from the extremist Suomen Sisu association. He announced on Friday that he was resigning from Suomen Sisu because he was too old to belong to “a youth organization.”
Hirvisaari tweets, “The truth: I was pressured to resign from Suomen Sisu.”
In his usual far right tone, Hirvisaari wrote on his blog: ”[I didn’t resign] because there was something wrong with the association, but because it is a youth organization.”
And continues: “I thank Suomen Sisu’s smart young men and women for their inspiring, intelligent, peaceful and authentic love for the fatherland and for their company and great example.”
So what does this latest piece of news about Hirvisaari’s motive to resign from Suomen Sisu tell us? It reveals that there is a big struggle in the PS between the far right faction led by MP Jussi Halla-aho and the party’s chairman Timo Soini.
Hirvisaari now regrets resigning from Suomen Sisu.
Is this tweet by Hirvisaari an outright declaration of war against Soini?
Are Hirvisaari’s days counted in the PS?
Maybe.

So, he was being called a traitor and weak and he wanted to show his ‘man friends’ that he really did have balls after all! You was right, they are kids! Boys playing in gangs.
