The party "There Are Such People", which according to the polls is the third political force in Bulgaria, will definitely not cooperate in government with current parliamentary-represented parties GERB, MRF and BSP.

There Are Such People will not back down from 3 of its demands, supported by a referendum years ago - majority elections in two rounds, reduction of party subsidy to BGN 1 per vote received and introduction of electronic remote voting, the party's deputy chairman Toshko Yordanov has told BNR.

The party's leader, showman Slavi Trifonov, said it did not matter whether a party was defined as left or right, because practicality, honesty and morality were most important to voters, BNR reported.
