European Parliament Passes Landmark Directive on Platform Workers' Rights
The European Parliament has approved the EU's inaugural directive aimed at regulating the employment rights of individuals working through online platforms
Bulgarian mother, Spaska Mitrova, who was thrown in Macedonian jail for three months in 2009 for preventing her former husband from meeting their child, has joined the new party of MEP, Dimitar Stoyanov.
Stoyanov initiated the party together not only with the 5 Ataka renegade MPs, but also with his mother Kapka Siderova, who is the estranged wife of Ataka leader Volen Siderov. The founders of the National Democratic Party accuse Siderov of authoritarian manners and mismanaging Ataka.
Mitrova, who currently works as Stoyanov's advisor in the EP, is one of the 90 people who became on Sunday members of the party's initiative committee.
The formation will be officially founded on June 2 and will seek legitimation through European Conservatives. The MEP, who heads the initiative committee, declared the party will pursue consensus in protecting national interests and for that goal is ready to partner with all other political groups.
"A politician, who had been elected Member of the Parliament, must apply effort to realize his or her ideas, not scream on city streets," Stoyanov criticized his former step-father and former fellow party leader Volen Siderov.
Siderov, meanwhile, in a life TV7 broadcast, called the founders of the new party mavericks and asked them to leave the National Assembly and the European Parliament on grounds they were there because of Ataka. He exchanged sharp words with Kapka, telling her that her project was "a miserable duplicate," while she labeled his reaction "childish."
