Should jobseekers get lower benefits if they don't know Finnish?

In this week's show we ask why the government wants to tie benefit levels to Finnish language skills and find out how you can save on your electricity bill right now. We also explore whether Finland is going to ban swastikas and why many dual citizens choose to perform military service. This episode of All Points North was presented by Egan Richardson and Zena Iovino, with additional reporting by Veronica Kontopoulou. The sound engineer was Anders Johansson.
