[POLITICS] Remișceanu, removed from the leadership of the Libertarian Party
The regional leaders of the Libertarian Party met last night at the party headquarters to decide the fate of Mihai Remișceanu, voting in favor of his removal from the party leadership. The vote was initiated by the president of the regional branch in Severigea, Steve Wilson, who motivated this decision by the fact that the party’s image has worsened under Remișceanu’s leadership, also criticizing the party’s lack of public condemnation of the attack in Corova on September 20.
“Under the current leadership, we have seen what it means to do nothing to improve your image and that is why we proposed the dismissal of Mr. Remișceanu from the party leadership. We remained silent at the very time when we should have condemned the actions of some, which cost us a lot,” Wilson declared in an intervention for NLB News.
Until a new leadership is elected, Steve Wilson will be the acting president of the political party.
[INTERNAL] The Federal Government, reluctant to adopt austerity measures
Limbo has already reached a budget deficit of 1.2% of gross domestic product, but the government seems hesitant to adopt spending-cutting measures. Prime Minister Odobescu said in a press conference that a plan is being worked on to address the deficit, but he assured that there will be no layoffs or cuts in salaries or benefits in the public sector.
“I want to clarify that we have a staff shortage in quite a few areas, such as education or health. What is really needed is to reform the Federal Tax Administration Service, to tackle tax evasion and to ensure that people with higher incomes or companies with high profits pay their share,” he said.
Several programs run by the Federal Government were suspended indefinitely at the end of September.
[INTERNAL] Bomb threats ahead of anti-fascist protest in Bergstad. Federal Police: 'This is not an isolated case.'
Anti-fascist protests continue nationwide, but not without incident. In Bergstad, police reportedly received an anonymous bomb threat at the same location where the student protest was supposed to take place, where a suspicious package was found. However, it did not contain explosives, but empty bags.
This was not the only incident last week, according to the Federal Police. Similar threats were also made in Corova, Herera and Matrolinsk.
