Croatian Labour Party's Initiative – Open Letter for Government’s Resignation


Starting with February 1st Croatian Labour Party started the initiative calling the citizens to sign an open letter addressed to Croatian government and asking for their resignation. This initiative is inspired by the traditional list of seven deadly sins, in this case associated with the Croatian government's behaviour against the wellbeing and interests of its citizens. The action will tentatively last until February 15th and all the adult Croatian citizens are invited to sign the letter, either at the organized locations across the country or by downloading the document from the official Croatian Labour Party website and mailing it directly.

In case that the ultimate goal is achieved and the government resigns Croatia would have early parliamentary elections.

Neo-nazi singer payed by HDZ

Croatian musician Marko Perković aka Thompson was one of the recipients of the HDZ party "black funds".

According to reports, Perković was given EUR 500,000 and asked to, in return, refuse to perform in favor of any party during the 2007 election campaign in Croatia.

Two independent sources confirmed this, according to the index.hr website.

Perković has been condemned for his affiliation with fascist and Ustasha ideologies, and for the fact that his fans attend concerts wearing Ustasha uniforms and insignia.

While he has officially spoken to distance himself from these incident, Perković also uses "controversial" symbols during his concerts, said reports.

The Ustasha regime was at the helm of the puppet Nazi WW2 Independent State of Croatia (NDH), which organized mass slaughter of Serbs, Jews and Roma in several death camps, including Jasenovac.
