Positions from speeches

An estimate by a language model (Claude Sonnet 5.5) from the text alone of 8 of this person's 8 speeches in the 52nd National Assembly, without their name or party. It can be wrong; the quotes show what it rests on (summaries and quotes are in Bulgarian). It is not a ranking.

Говорителят обсъжда законопроекти за ценова регулация, защита на потребителите и конкуренцията, както и предложения за ДДС прага и възнагражденията в публичните предприятия. Тонът е предимно аргументиран, с критики към управляващите и конкретни предложения.

8 of 10 · confidence: high

Говорителят се противопоставя на административна намеса в цените и ценови регулации, подкрепя по-нисък административен товар и по-висок праг за ДДС за малкия бизнес, но и ограничаване на заплатите в публичните предприятия.

този тип интервенции не постигат заявения ефект – вместо да стабилизират цените, те създават несигурност в пазарната среда 14 May 2026

3 of 10 · confidence: low

EU and NATORussia, euroscepticism

Говорителят единствено вскоро отбелязва съответствие с правото на ЕС, без ясна позиция по външнополитически въпроси.

How this is calculated and what is left out

Supplements (Art. 6): Chair of the Assembly +55%, deputy chair +45%, chair of a committee or parliamentary group +35%, deputy chair of a committee +25%, member of a standing committee +15% per committee, secretary of the Assembly +10%. With several leading posts, the highest counts in full and the others at the member rate.
Deductions (Art. 13): one day's pay (monthly pay divided by working days) for each unexcused absence from a plenary sitting; two thirds of the month's pay for three consecutive or five in a month. Committee absences are only counted: their deduction depends on the number of meetings, which is not published. The register is incomplete on some days, so deductions may be higher.
Not included: supplements for length of service (1% per year) and academic degrees, work on temporary committees and working groups (up to 5%), and any increases under the budget law. Amounts are gross, before tax and social contributions.
Also not included: the allowance for additional expenses under Art. 11: two thirds of base pay, i.e. €2,824 a month per MP. It is not salary: it is paid out on the parliamentary group's decision for assistants, consultancy, expert studies, premises and other costs of work in parliament and in the constituency, and groups publish what it was spent on and who was paid.
