The orange and the green
2010-05-14
The Greens might be loath to form a coalition with Jiøí Paroubek
of ÈSSD, but the two parties actually have something important
in common. They are the target of a concerted effort to limit
their election potential. Certain business interests, esp. in the
energy sector, would very much like to see the Greens disappear
from Parliament. Calling a press conference - ignored by most
media - to demand that ÈEZ reveal the owners of Appian isn't
conducive to the status quo. The attacks against Paroubek have
a similar motivation. His personality and presidential ambitions
make him a risk to the way things are done. ÈSSD's policies
would be more predictable if he were sidelined, and getting rid
of him will be easier if ÈSSD's election results are firmly below
30%. In this sense, a vote for the Greens or for Paroubek might
be the only effective way to take a stance against the growing
"electrostate."
