/ world at this time information/ Within the evening of lengthy pens/daggers, BSP as soon as once more checked out its previous as an alternative of ahead and dug into the injuries. And with out Lambo, there isn’t a one to tie them up anymore
On September 12, Cornelia Ninova received the battle for BSP. On September 26, he received the conflict.
Or so he thinks. The truth is, there isn’t a winner on this conflict. As a result of it isn’t in opposition to the political opponent, however in opposition to the like-minded, in opposition to the comrade. This can be a fratricidal conflict.
“With the direct election, you broke the lie that the BSP is split, that there’s a cut up, that we’re in disintegration. I at all times ask such folks one query: Which occasion do you suppose they’re? They’re silent. The occasion shouldn’t be the chairman, nor are the person members of the Nationwide Council. The occasion is you, our members, and you must be completely blind or very effectively paid to assert {that a} occasion the place 80% of the membership votes and 82% of them assist one coverage is disunited.”
With these phrases, Ninova introduced earlier than the fiftieth Congress that the occasion was consolidated. However there weren’t many individuals current in Corridor 1 of the NDK who believed her. Just because the ambiance of the congress indicated the precise reverse.
As an alternative of being solemn, as befits an anniversary, it handed languidly. It was not heard
none robust
political speech.
There was no emotion as
befitting a vacation
Even the chief’s speech was met with tepid applause.
The absence of Lambo, who at all times lifted the corridor to its ft and rallied his comrades, was palpably felt. One thing that at this time, when disunity is stronger than ever, is particularly needed.
Irrespective of how a lot Ninova denied it, the congress was divided and everybody might see it. Sure, the opposition was disguised this time – no sharp phrases have been heard, not even the standard trade of high-pitched strains. However the rigidity was greater than palpable each within the corridor and on the sidelines.
A combat between the chief and her inner opposition over who will take what number of seats within the Nationwide Council was the one matter that excited the delegates. And is BSP not prepared for energy and with what concepts to draw folks.
Within the cubicles and with whispers, two slips, because the delegates name them, have been organized – two lists of names of those that ought to enter the plenum. And the election itself stays in historical past just like the evening of the lengthy daggers.
As a result of it isn’t simply Cornelia Ninova’s opponents who’re dropping out of the Nationwide Council. Vital figures for the BSP are dropping out. Sure,
every of them has
its flaws, however they
have been opinion leaders.
Not solely within the occasion.
People who find themselves looking out
the ideological path of the BSP
It’s good for contemporary faces to enter politics, however it isn’t good for the extent to fall. Reference – the parliamentary group of the BSP, which, regardless of all its enthusiasm, can not boast of excessive experience. And within the new Nationwide Council models are the individuals who can maintain a deep political debate. It’s no coincidence that Georgi Pirinski warned Ninova that what he sows (because the composition of the plenum), he’ll reap sooner or later (as insurance policies and packages developed by the Nationwide Meeting).
Clearing her opponents, the chief a minimum of ostensibly supplied herself with consolation. She wanted him – up to now 4 years, she complained greater than as soon as that she couldn’t work with the earlier plenum, he even blamed her within the final months. Which, in reality, wasn’t regular both.
However 100% consolation can also be a mistake. Is there nobody to indicate you the place you’re going improper, placed on the rose-colored glasses and overlook your self.
Sure, Ninova will stay within the historical past of the BSP not solely as the primary lady to face on the head of the centenary, but in addition as the primary chairman elected instantly by the vote of all socialists. However not with everybody’s assist.
Solely half of the socialists supported her – 42,000 out of a complete of 80,000. And that in a celebration the place the chief is a sacred cow, and lots of of those that voted for Ninova did so on impulse, in any other case they might have supported anybody else in her place.
10 thousand confirmed that they needed an alternate. It isn’t somewhat.
And others shut by 30 thousand
socialists by no means
they went to the poll containers
(the precise voter turnout is 67.1%, not 80%, as Ninova says within the quote above) – that is greater than 1/3 of BSP members. And energetic members, the place you do not have to hold the cell poll field to their ft with a request or strain to vote. Additionally they did it as an indication to the chief.
Is that this the consolidated occasion? Ninova have to be taking a look at her by way of these rose-colored glasses, happy that she has fulfilled her dream of being like Borisov, however in a skirt – sole grasp of her occasion, which is step by step turning into GERB-2.
I’ve written it dozens of instances, I will write it once more – when she took over the BSP 4 years in the past, she was anticipated as a lady to scrub up and put her home so as. As an alternative, he fluffed her up. And it isn’t simply in regards to the battle he waged with lots of the occasion’s iconic faces, with its elite. As we speak, fairly a number of of the buildings are disconnected and even cut up – corresponding to Vidin, Veliko Tarnovo, Plovdiv.
Even the pinnacle of the purple courtroom, as they name the All-Get together Management Fee – Valentina Bogdanova, who spoke in regards to the division and opposition within the BSP, admitted this. Earlier than we search for folks’s belief, let’s restore it amongst ourselves, urged Valya, who’s a sensible lady, truthful to everybody and has had the respect of her associates for years. However
have been her phrases
greeted with
silence from
the information.
And with vendetta –
was changed by Emil Voinov, who, after securing Ninova’s electoral victory, now offers her full management of the occasion.
Due to this fact, it is vitally necessary how the chief will proceed any longer. Is she nonetheless vindictive, taking a look at previous transgressions, or will she determine to attempt to unite even these she does not like.
As we speak, most outstanding names within the occasion are in opposition to the chief. Confirmed authorities, however every of them depends on their very own circle of supporters, doesn’t search cooperation. And when everybody pulls the rug in the direction of themselves, nothing occurs. What has occurred in current months has confirmed the thesis that the opposition of Ninova is amorphous. And her large drawback is that she has no face and may’t unite. Simply as he united behind Ninova herself 4 years in the past to overthrow Mikhail Mikov.
After they stood united within the European elections to place Sergey Stanishev on the checklist, the end result was seen – they defeated the chief. However when 3-4 representatives of the opposition appeared on the direct election in opposition to Ninova, and the remainder referred to as for no voting in any respect, the that means is misplaced. The guy oppositionists once more confirmed that they’re stronger in phrases than in actions. As soon as once more – a lot ado about nothing.
Regardless of the purge, nonetheless, it’s robust to say that within the plenum everybody loves Ninova. Litchi
new pattern – BSP
is cut up
not on the younger
and outdated, and on
ninovists and
Anti-Ninovist
The second are younger individuals who don’t settle for the confrontational model of the chief, nor her taking part in with the previous and nostalgia. Kiril Dobrev put these within the plenum. The earlier deputy head and principal competitor of the chief for the place fashioned his personal circle of affect within the Nationwide Meeting. If we add these of the leaders of the most important organizations – in Sofia and Plovdiv – Kaloyan Pargov and Georgi Gergov, Ninova’s complications are once more assured.
Sure, after September 12, her opposition fell silent and bowed down. However this doesn’t imply that the BSP is consolidated. The calm is like earlier than a storm. It is going to escape in the course of the sorting of the deputies’ lists from this identical new plenum.
Then large tremors are anticipated as a result of, in response to these accustomed to the assist, Ninova has now promised main locations within the lists of so many individuals that the parliaments of the whole Balkans have to be assembled to get everybody in.
Will this make BSP stronger? Hardly. So how, then, will a celebration that can’t rise above its inner squabbles persuade voters that it is able to govern?
And if Ninova doesn’t win the subsequent parliamentary elections and doesn’t convey the BSP into energy, not solely her opposition, but in addition a lot of her supporters will hardly forgive her.
