Such a person should not be an MP.

A member of parliament from the Left and Freedom parties, Luka Mesec, criticized the right-wing coalition government for hypocrisy regarding anti-corruption efforts. He pointed out that the coalition, which includes the True Party, had promised to combat corruption during the election campaign but has failed to act decisively on recent scandals involving MP Boris Mijič. Mijič, who previously managed the company Progros, faces allegations of owing money to employees, failing to pay taxes, falsifying employee signatures to remove them from social insurance, and concealing ownership of Progros from the Anti-Corruption Commission. These actions have led to ongoing police investigations against him. Mesec argued that such behavior undermines the integrity of MPs, who should serve as role models for society. The Left and Freedom parties plan to demand an urgent session of the parliamentary committee on economy, labor, and sports to address these issues formally.

Bias read (Left): The article frames the situation as a systemic failure by the right-wing government and highlights the Left and Freedom parties' demands for accountability. It uses strong language to criticize the current government and emphasizes the need for ethical standards among politicians, aligning with left
