The five deputies who left the BSP in autumn after Cornelia Ninova’s re-election as leader are preparing a new political project, the Socialists confirmed to Dnevnik. According to unofficial information, he will target Socialist voters, betting on a return to traditional left-wing ideas and values.
The separatists’ intentions are expected to be announced within two weeks, and the new formation will stand in parliamentary elections next spring as a competitor to the BSP.
“We have all declared that we will continue to be politicians. This is happening with a political project to represent, but there is a period of preparation,” Krassimir Yankov, one of the unsuccessful candidates for president of the BSP and more recently, told Channel 3. the most popular figure among those who left the party. According to him, the project should be announced before the end of the year.
Dnevnik asked Yankov for details, but did not respond to his mobile phone. In announcing his departure from the BSP, he explained the reasons as follows: “The constant change of the ideological image of the party in Cornelia Ninova’s definitions as a party of conservative socialism, social patriotism, ecosocialism.” it sets the parameters of our priorities. “
In September, the Red Group and the party, in addition to Yankov, also abandoned MPs Lalo Kirilov, Nikolay Ivanov, Dimitar Stoyanov and Georgi Andreev. The other unsuccessful candidate for leader, Valeri Zhablyanov, also left the parliamentary group, but remained a member of the BSP. Then the socialist Chavdar Velinov declared himself an independent deputy, followed by the Paralympic Mikhail Hristov, who was elected in the parliament from the civil quota on the list of “BSP for Bulgaria”.
All of them, without Mikhail Hristov, informally present themselves as a group of “progressive socialists” and are presenters of a series of bills, including those of minimum non-taxable income, on the possibility of low-interest loans for students and students of doctorate, to facilitate the majority election of deputies and others. Initially, they refused to register at the beginning of parliamentary sessions, as did the BSP and the MRF, but then the GERB gave more time for speeches by non-group MPs and splits began to help the ruling party to achieve a quorum. At the moment, they claim that they do not support the draft of a new GERB constitution and are against convening a Grand National Assembly.
According to unconfirmed information, the objective of the splits is to stand in the parliamentary elections next spring. However, according to the socialists, they may not be able to register a match as there is very little time to go through legal procedures. To create a new political formation, a constituent assembly must be called with the participation of at least 500 delegates, and then at least 2,500 signatures are needed, which must be submitted to the court for ruling. In Positano 20, the ruptures are suspected to be linked to GERB to split the BSP before the elections.
