Pro-government gathering yesterday VS anti-government protest today in Serbia

4 comments
  1. Please note that the government gathering was organised for a whole month, with houndreds of busses from every single city or village in the country(you can see busses parked outside the parliament). People were forced to go there of lose their job, i personally know many, who didnt even vote for Vucic in the elections, but were forced to come. They also gave people free food, the ride to Belgrade, and 20 euros to the people who come to the gathering. Meanwhile, there are no busses for the protests, its mostly (almost entirely) the people from Belgrade.

    And, maybe thats a plus, since the protesters can blockade the city every week, without having to organise busses and etc. This is the 4th Serbia against violence protest since the 1st one on March 8th. People will walk from the Parliament building to the RTS(national broadcaster) building. The demands of the protests are:

    Resignation of Branko Ružić, Bratislav Gašić and Aleksandar Vulin(ministers of Education, Police, and the head of the Security Intelligence Agency
    Resignations of the body members of the Regulatory Body for Electronic Media and Radio Television of Serbia(RTS)
    Withdrawal of the national broadcasting licences of RTV Pink and Happy TV for promoting violence

    Vucic was also replaced as the president of his party, the Serbian progressive party, today, however not due to protests(as he says).

  2. Much much more than Vucic’s pro-govt rally yesterday, where people were paid to go (and some threatened to go).

    Unbelievable scenes today, especially under the rainy circumstances:

  3. Whoa, that’s a lot of buses of people Mr Pussylips managed to lure with free pizza. Over here pro-govt “counter-protests” usually consist of a sad bunch of several hundreds, tops, most of whom can’t put a single sentence together about why they’re there.
