We have an elected chairman , which is not independent. This is a person named by Peevski, elected with the votes of the previous meeting. This is what he said in the show "Face to Face" on BTV the vice-president of "There is such a people" Toshko Yordanov on the occasion of the election of the BSP candidate Assoc. Natalia Kiselova for Speaker of the Parliament. Her candidacy was supported, apart from BSP, by GERB - SDS, "We continue the change – Democratic Bulgaria" and "Alliance for Rights and Freedoms".

After Peevski's clear support for Kiselova yesterday, the BSP and the other parties claimed that this rendered her candidacy meaningless and envisaged other options for today. However, something happened in the evening, in the evening and today in the morning, both BSP and "We continue the change - Democratic Bulgaria" they came with a different mind and elected her as the chairman, said Yordanov.

Asked if from "There is such a people" will participate in a majority for a regular government, he noted: "It is too early for a majority. GERB has the task of gathering a majority and so far they are doing quite well GERB claimed that they would not vote for any DPS, but they voted, Democratic Bulgaria also said some things and voted for Kiselova, APS also said that they would not vote together with GERB , and supported Kiselova. They already have a majority, let's see what they will do.

We have said that for a government we will not only talk with "DPS – A New Beginning". If GERB invites us, we will go, but I have doubts about what will happen from all this work, added the deputy chairman of "There is such a people".

Toshko Yordanov specified that the party would support legislation that would prevent Borislav Sarafov from being elected chief prosecutor, and they would also support the voting to be entirely automated. Especially if the machines are changed, as the current ones are distrusted, we would support 100%. If the machines are the ones that scan the ballots, that eliminates the human element and would be a very nice option, he commented.

In the National Assembly, we will work on the things for which we have made a commitment that we will work. We will make changes to the Electoral Code, to the Law on the Judiciary, and to the Children's Law, but the initiative is not ours, but the assembly, plus the BSP, Yordanov also said.
