The government should stay as long as possible so it can "rob people to the last" and the crisis becomes total, GERB leader Boyko Borisov told journalists in the corridors of parliament.

He said the ruling parties want Bulgarians' money in their own pockets and take it from wherever they can every day. As an example, Borisov pointed to the gas price rise the day before. The cabinet should leave the same way it came, he said.

Those in power tell 3 or 4 lies in a single TV statement, with no one forcing them to, the GERB leader said.

Borisov also blamed the cabinet over the crash on the Trakia motorway. With dozens killed and maimed, he said, someone claimed they had learned of it later. He asked where the duty officers at the interior ministry had been. He proposed that after such incidents only experts should speak in the first three days, to avoid political point-scoring.

He also criticised how murders are investigated. He said the interior ministry announced three murders solved in a single day. In the past, evidence was required, but now the killer is named at once, Borisov said. He added that this happens every day while people are being robbed.

On the killing in Bankya of Vladimir Yankov-Zagototo, who was beaten, set on fire and robbed, Borisov said the clearance rate was zero.

By his count, the clearance rate in Plovdiv is 200%, because two people have been detained over a single shot. Borisov thinks the trial will come down to which of them is the killer and which should confess. First a certain culprit was announced, and another person was detained the day before, a month and a half after the first arrest.
