Bulgarians in UK protest again in support of anti-government rallies in their home country

Maria Spirova

Bulgarians living in the UK are to protest again today in support of the anti-government rallies in Sofia and other Bulgarian towns. “The protests here continue for the second consecutive week”, Maria Spirova who has lived in Great Britain for many years told BNR. “Sometimes, up to 300 people join the protests. Bulgarians living in other British cities- Bristol, Exeter, Manchester and Birmingham are also planning protests this weekend”, Maria Spirova added. “Many people living abroad know that this type of attitude of the government towards the institutions, the citizens and the rule of law, the use of vulgar language, is what makes Bulgarians emigrate abroad. In this audio recording they found the reason why they left their home country”, Maria Spirova says commenting the audio recording with the voice of Premier Borissov, whose authenticity is guaranteed by MEP Elena Yoncheva.
