    There are many politicians who are going to profit from this event, for sure.

    The occasion to ban opposition parties, censor non-aligned press and furtherly restrict people’s freedom is too perfect to be missed.

      Yeah sure but they just don’t realize how bad the situation is. I think that this isn’t what’s gonna happen.

      Slovak politics is insane from mafia killing journalists to prime Minister throwing bananas on politicians because they behave like monkeys.

        I guess you must be right. Probably, outsiders ( like me) can’t phantom what’s really going on…
