Opposition

I am not at all surprised by the primitivism of the people's representatives. Nor the behavior of voters in Montenegro. Who, with ten percent changes in the party lists, will vote for the same characters again. And so indefinitely, another 25 years... Or longer...

- Did you see the chaos in the Assembly? - I did, what? - Well, that's a joke, the faculty professor swears like that! - It's not his first time, but the people regularly elect him as a deputy. - Yes, and our Stanišić, too, always makes fun of something. Are you writing about it this week? - And, are you voting depees again this October? - I'm voting, who else will I vote for?! - Then there is no point in me writing... It was a decent start to the dialogue on restoring electoral confidence. In my favorite grocery store. The end resembled that of the parliament. Only the neighbor was no match for anyone's mother... The ardor with which she represented the government brought her the support of other customers. I left defeated. What awaits the opposition in October...

That's why I don't think anything worth mentioning happened in the parliament. Only the semi-finals of the pre-election championship made it to the finals. In the final, it is more than obvious, the Democratic Party of Socialists and the Democratic Front will play. The rest of the opposition acts as if they will not even go on the field. Which would not surprise me after such a reach of the Transitional Government.

*** It would be wise for them to pay attention to the effect achieved by Front deputies, unique for this occasion, among voters. Every day, at the time of the highest attendance of the Assembly, they take the bank and hold tribunes. They play a one-act play, sometimes satirical, adapted to the audience. They are well trained and know exactly which messages keep the voters together. The government lies, steals, persecutes Serbs, buys votes, forces us to join NATO, hates Russians, gives state land to Kosovo, despises the Cyrillic alphabet... Who cares if everything is correct. It is important to repeat a mantra a hundred times, which every supporter will think is addressed to him. If they keep up at this pace, the Front will be the strongest opposition group in the new convocation of parliament. And its leaders do not aim for more. They learned well the lessons from recent Montenegrin political history - Đukanović will never be defeated in the elections. He will leave when he decides to. Since 2000, the Depees have been fighting for votes on the field. We know how! That is why they are mostly silent in the parliament. And they are enjoying themselves while the oppositionists from the Front and those gathered around the Transitional Government are fighting each other. The police regime of counting minutes also contributes to the intensity of insults. Which, completely targeted, was introduced by the president Without half of the assembly. His favorite deputy, Milutin Simović, simply enjoys giving them an extra second, for even more difficult words. And then he laughs in their faces, sure that the Boss is more than satisfied with his performance...

*** During this time, the representatives of the Transitional Government seem almost executed. They are constantly trying to explain the decision to join Đukanović's cabinet, but they are not receiving arguments that the voters would understand from the temporary ministers.

The elections have just been announced, and none of the announced 80.000 phantom voters have been deleted from the list yet. Thousands of identity cards, suspicious orders and purposes, are still in the warehouse of the MUP. The owners have not been found, nor has it been proven that they did not even exist. The little information provided by the director of the Employment Service, the former boss denies faster than they reach the readers. At the same pace, the statements of the Minister of Social Affairs are disputed by the one he succeeded.

A colleague from the finance department long ago published a list of those who owe the state millions. However, there is no news about whether any tycoon company went bankrupt because of it. And trust and elections are not won on the story of what someone has not done before. Than he is the one who now guards the state treasury.

It has long seemed to me that the so-called the pro-Montenegrin opposition has no idea who they are dealing with. Looks like I'm not the only one. And it would be humane if they dissuade us...

PS After almost three decades, Amfilohije Radović spoke as a metropolitan. Hour and change Living truth and not a word about politics. Only the church, faith, religiousness. I don't know what benefit he will get out of it, but if it benefits Đukanović - it will... Especially after the disagreements with the Russians and on the church front...
