Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 75256, member: 636"] Boyko Borisov from GERB said the budget protest actually helped his party since they never liked the original plan anyway, and he thinks the cops handled everything perfectly while pushing back against calls for the Interior Minister to quit. He spent the day after the demonstration talking to friends who showed up, and then pulled the coalition, plus the Prime Minister and Finance Minister, together to hash things out with unions and employers watching. Borisov split the protest into two camps, where the first group did solid work, but the second bunch revealed what kind of chaotic leadership some people want running things. The vandals came organized, and different police tactics would have caused bloodshed, according to him. He also mentioned GERB hitting 19 years old while claiming credit for basically everything good in Sofia since the 90s, from metro lines to water treatment plants. [/QUOTE]
