Cleaning industry. Member of Parliament Kiuru. Turku trains. Floorball World Championship victory. Tuesday’s weather.

Cleaning industry

First, news from the cleaning industry.

Cleaning companies are having a hard time. They could soon lose customers.

The reason is the changes the government is making to taxation. The household tax deduction will be reduced next year.

Cleaning costs will no longer reduce the customer’s taxes as much as they do now, and therefore purchasing cleaning services will become more expensive.

Many cleaning companies are having a hard time.

Not all customers can afford to buy as many cleaning services as they can now.

Member of Parliament Kiuru

Then the topic of politicians’ safety.

MP Krista Kiuru was beaten on Friday.

A man hit Kiuru in Kaisaniemi Park in Helsinki.

The police caught the man on Saturday. The man may not have had a political motive for the beating.

Then news about train traffic.

Trains are running to the center of Turku again.

From Helsinki you can travel by train to the center of Turku and then to the Port of Turku.

Then some happy sports news.

Finland is the world champion in floorball.

The Finnish men’s national team defeated Sweden in the World Cup final yesterday.

This goal by Miska Mäkinen decided the victory for Finland. Finland won the final 5-4.
