Demonstrators against the Bulgarian government are preparing to confront MPs when they return from return from recess on September 4.
In particular, Trud reports that the Protest Network, a group that emerged amid the wave of dissent in July of this year, has called for a blockade of the parliament building from 8am so as to ensure a "Big welcome".
The country’s former prime minister and the current opposition leader, Boyko Borisov has announced that he supports the protests and has pledged that he will also be on hand to demand the resignation of Prime Minister Plamen Oresharski's government.
