Absolutely! Important to blow off steam and she's not doing anything illegal so no issue. Murph7355 said:
Where do people go clubbing in a room with windows open to the sunlight and people in white socks and no shoes?
It was taken recently, it was probably late at night or early hours, and its mid-summer so never really gets dark there...... 
But you're right about the socks though.....
I don't really care if she is dancing, drinking or going out clubbing. I have seen her out this Summer and as she has said this is pretty much what most Mid 30s women do. I have high fived her downtown.
Everyone can see the funny side of this and relate to it.
Where she is in a bit of fuss personally is kissing and groping a local celebrity on the dancefloor of a nightclub, she is married to Marcus Raikkonen a footballer so he was left holding the baby. But that is between them.
Where I think she is getting heat over this is because there are some serious things going on this week politically and this is overshadowing it.
I like her as my Prime Minister, I just wish she would not bring heat upon herself that undermine her professional work.

Looks like shadowy powerful people have decided to go after her for whatever reason.
I think there are people doubling down on making this a big thing, the flour club coke reference is a very tenuous one as no one calls Cocaine flour in Finland. The slang Jahnu is also what you call Jenny or referencing the song she was singing. But that is why she took the drugs test as this is a bit of a witch hunt.But this is not faked or leaked dubiously. The instagram she posted to was from the guy who's apartment it was in who is a celebrity, there was no political leak.
The nightclub is a public place and she is just a citizen, my friend saw her out that night. This was not leaked by Russian bots or anything planted to make her look bad.

Does Finland have any borders with shadowy (less than they used to be) powerful countries (who are a bit down on their luck and potentially have a lot at stake in destabilising Finland)?CoolHands said:

More likely a strategically planned post to drum up support in key demoraphics I'd suggest, as it certainly doesn't seem to have had any negative affect. Elections in just over 6 months and the SDP have been getting kicked in the arse by the NCP/KOK since July 2021 according to the opinion polls.
Margins were incredibly tight at the 2019 election with no party getting more than 20% of the vote and only 1% seperating the top 3 parties (17.7%, 17.5%, 17%)
