The Answer Cannot Be Direct Democracy

The emergence of the Direct Democracy party is causing concern and disappointment, as its representatives appear to lack a clear political agenda and do not know how they would function in Parliament. The use of personal videos by candidates and the emphasis on 'clicks' on social media suggest a lack of seriousness and an attempt to exploit citizens' frustration. The political system has lost its credibility, as politicians have failed to effectively address the country's problems and often seemed to serve their own interests. Parliament has lost its prestige and political ethics have deteriorated. However, Direct Democracy is not a solution, as the lack of a program and the absence of political consistency cannot lead to positive results. Choosing absurdity as a means of expressing dissatisfaction is not the right answer to the incompetent and corrupt system. Turning Parliament into a circus will not solve the country's problems, but will punish the citizens themselves. The need for a serious and responsible political approach to problems is more urgent than ever. The next Parliament will be called upon to make important decisions that will determine the future of the country. It is essential to elect politicians with ability, political perception and a sense of responsibility, who will serve the common good and work for a fairer and more efficient society.
