PS conferences in the districts are shattering unity From the PS Conference in Elbasan NAMIK DOKLE Only for the elections of 26 May, based on general and partial information, and at the moment taking the bottles and information decisions, complete information from that area and how things are, but we had information from Elbasan, Fieri, Tirana, Durrës. QEMAL VYSHKA / / Fatos Nano should have been invited to this meeting. The PS apparatus did not detach itself from office work from what the party bureaucracy was doing, but here it is! in this chair of hers, we are moving people, we need political action. HUSHI, there are scandals for the PS deputy! Yesterday the parliament in the party of labor still sits in the structures of the PS. Among many members and sympathizers of the PS, that spirit of change and of waiting for orders from above is felt. Many PS members are used to the commands of the Party of Labour and go along with them. Therefore, even when the PS in its own ranks, this kind of organization, with top-down decisions, blind discipline, movement according to central directives without consulting the base, they see it as normal. This is the legacy of an old and deeply rooted mentality. The PS's deviations are becoming increasingly similar to the Party of Labour and its membership feels this. Opponents and dissent within it have pointed out the problem. The question is whether there will be reflection or not. ...this time on such a scale as has been demonstrated in Albania today. When people in the PS see that certain individuals who have made no special contribution, but have come close for clientelist motives or because of connections, seize key posts, then disappointment is natural. The Socialist Party in chaos The district conferences are being held in a tense climate. The holding of these conferences has been accompanied by fierce debates, mutual accusations, objections and opposition to candidacies. In some cases there have also been walkouts and open clashes. In the Elbasan district, according to the data presented, serious divisions have been observed. This shows that the crisis in the PS is not superficial, but affects its structures and membership.
