Large shot and small pellets

Why did Vučić humiliate his dysfunctional ministerial family, causing nausea felt by the whole of Serbia? Why didn't wintering in Davos feel like a Christmas party under "Informer's" tent? Will the public watch him on live TV holding a walking stick with the inscription "Call elections, coward"? And is he aware, as a chess player, that he is in a situation where there is no good move

It doesn't matter who is on the student list

Who among us has ever looked at all 250 names of parliamentary candidates on the list for which they want to vote? Although it is not stated anywhere, it is clear that the student list will be a buffet. If it matters to anyone, they have my vote, even if I don't like 249 names

There will be no election.

The knee-jerk Supreme Being trusts in the local elections in Kosjerić and Zaječar. It must not be forgotten that for 13 years he poured heavy poisons, especially in the province, and that detoxification is a long and painful process.
