The party claims that the current immigration policy of the government will turn Finland into anilliberal democratic country where Finns are a minority.[2] The party describes theGovernment as amafia network, and wishes to hold people involved in "censorship, deliberate disinformation produced by mainstream media, state leadership and other official mafia networks", alongside people involved in selling government assets off-shore convicted of fraud.

The party wishes to promote self-sufficiency and to "return all wealth stolen from the Finnish people by the criminality of the official mafia network."
