After the Fourth Edition of the "Great People's Uprising", the so-called Poison Trio, who are organizers of the protests, said protests have created a civic society that could make the difference between paid speakers and others.

Speaking to bTV, Prof. Velislav Minekov spoke about the achievements of protests so far - "six fired ministers, a series of incidents in the government and an opening of European eyes." He also forecasts that results of the protests will come soon.

Until now, the demands of the protesters remain unchanged - resignations of Prime Minister Borissov and Prosecutor General Ivan Geshev, as well as early parliamentary elections. The fourth Great People's Uprising, which involved citizens from all over the country, as well as a group of Bulgarians who came from Canada, passed without incident. Citizens have reiterated that they expect a new model of governance with new faces.
