At the current speed, ANO might very well win enough votes in the next parliamentary elections to form a government – either majority or minority – with any one of the other partiesthat make it past the 5% threshold. That could mean 3-6 potential coalition or silent partners.The Pirates might refuse to assist Andrej Babiš in his return to power on principle, but theother parties now in the government have engaged in so many dubious transactions and misdeeds that they’ll have a strong incentive to throw “never Babiš” to the wind and seek the legal protection of a seat at the table. Babiš can make them more compliant by vowing to in stigate criminal action against current ministers and their advisers for such things as energy deals, defense acquisitions and IT contracts. STAN Chair Vít Rakušan’s new video is a major event not only because it openly criticizes PM Petr Fiala, but also because it doesn’t blame the situation on Babiš or Vladimir Putin. Coalition partners are becoming the bigger enemy.
