"We do not promise you meat!"

Saratov officials and deputies are ready to offer residents plenty of flour products and spectacles

Before the discussions of the statements of the State Duma of Vera Ganzya, who complained about the modest salary of the parliamentarian, was banging, as she was overshadowed by the Saratov Employment Minister Natalya Sokolova with observations about the price of "pasta". The new meme was born in the regional Duma after a meeting of the working group of the Committee on Social Policy.

Culinary show

The meeting discussed the regional bill “On the Lisign Minimum of the Pensioner in 2019”, which implies an increase from today 7990 to 8278 rubles. This indicator is needed to calculate the social surcharge for pension: if the pensioner does not work and receives less than the minimum, the difference will cover the budget. If the region makes a local cost of living is higher than the all -Russian (8846 rubles for the whole country in 2019), you will have to pay from your own funds. And if below, then the federal treasury will take over the costs. The subsidized Saratov region (in the draft regional budget for the next year there is a shortage of two billion rubles) cannot afford too much a minimum.

After the meeting, the journalists did not immediately part. The Communist Party deputy Nikolai Bondarenko suggested that the Minister of Employment Natalya Sokolova arrange an experiment in a television show and check whether it is possible to eat 3.5 thousand rubles for a month (approximately such a share of the cost of living is allocated to buy products). “Yes, but if only we live together in a hotel room,” the minister answered, mentioning that the presence of television cameras would be superfluous. “I can make you a menu.” Balanced, but dietary. We will become younger, more beautiful and slimmer. ”

The interlocutor assured what is considered a “good cook”, can “cook a huge number of dishes” without meat, using seasonal vegetables and fruits. "Apples. Now generally luxurious - eat as much as you want. In each season there are products that are cheaper, you just need to react flexibly, ”said Natalya Yuryevna. - Makaroshki are always the same. And kefir? "

“Kui iron is still hot. We are ready to go to any costs, ”the communist suggested starting action immediately. But the interlocutor changed her mind: “I am a rather decisive person. But I'm afraid that the status of the minister will not allow me this. " - Sokolova proposed to postpone the experiment for 2019, when it is planned to change the methodology of forming a consumer basket at the federal level.

“To say to people: we do not promise you meat! But at least chicken, ”Bondarenko summed up.

The joke has reached the second time

Note that the amount that the authorities considers sufficient to power a citizen was known earlier. According to Saratovstat, in September, the minimum set of products in the region cost 3162.72 rubles (the lowest result in the Volga district). As statistics assure, for a month food has fallen in price by 0.5 percent.

The cost of the Medium Saratovtsy menu was not the first time for the jokes of local communists. In May, when the regional Duma discussed the law on the consumer basket, the deputies from the Communist Party brought to the meeting a gift basket of food. According to parliamentarians, for the agreed amount in terms of the week

It was possible to buy a herring, cucumber, candy, cookies, bread, pasta package and a piece of meat-such as, according to the communaster of Alexander Anidalov, his home turtle eats.

The basket was decorated with a mourning ribbon with the inscription "from" United Russia ". Having given a gift to Minister Sokolova, parliamentarians asked if she could eat like that? Natalya Yuryevna replied that "ready to try."

The spring performance of Dumsev went unnoticed. This time the reaction was completely different. The video of the conversation between Bondarenko and Sokolova published the Saratov IA "Public Opinion". The story with Makaroshki has become more popular than reports of new Russian weapons, Ukraine, fighting football players and iPhone prices. Saratov’s news was discussed in the program “Time will tell”, that is, the region came to Channel One for the second time in a week (earlier, as the New ”already said, the plot of the death of the Saratov woman Olga Bogayeva, who did not receive drugs for diabetes) came out at the CT).

The press service of the Saratov governor reported the dismissal of Natalia Sokolova. “I consider it unacceptable for the head of the regional ministry a neglect of topics that have a vital importance for people,” the press release said on behalf of the head of the region.

Deputy Nikolai Bondarenko admitted that he did not expect the dismissal of the official. As the communist of the Free News news agency said, he does not refuse the experiment, “if the new minister will sign a diet and shops for me, where I can purchase products for these money for a month.”

Invisible minister

Natalya Sokolova was the only minister who took office at the very beginning of the first term of Governor Valery Radaev in the spring of 2012 and lasted in the chair. By the specialty, Natalya Yuryevna is a teacher. Prior to appointment to the government for 8 years, he headed the employment center of the Volsky district. As indicated in the declaration of the minister, last year the official’s income amounted to 2.2 million rubles (that is, more than 191.3 thousand rubles a month). She has a land plot with an area of ​​338 thousand square meters and a residential building of 171.9 square meters.

The Saratov press wrote about Sokolova infrequently. Her department did not differ neither successes nor scandals.

Saratov ministers have not been lucky recently. At the beginning of the week, the head of the regional Ministry of Health, Vladimir Shuldyakov, resigned (during the day it became known about the death of a girl with diabetes).

Earlier, the Minister of Finance Alexander Zavkrebentsev left the post. All -Russian glory also fell to him: a video of the detention of an official car of the department appeared on REN TV. At the wheel of a black SUV was a drunk employee of the administration of the Oktyabrsky district of Saratov. In the back seat, a man, similar to the minister, slept Neggle. Alexander Zavkrebentsev wrote a statement of his own free will.

Red Star

32-year-old Nikolai Bondarenko was elected to the regional Duma in September last year. In his single -mandate district on the eve of the vote, a candidate from EP suddenly starred. Thanks to such happy surprises, five communists received a place in parliament.

The newcomers revived the interior of the Duma with their appearance. At least once a season, they come up with something funny. In November last year, the Communists brought mourning wreaths with the inscription “residents of the region” at the meeting, which approved the regional budget of the region. In the spring, deputies Alexander Anidalov and Nikolai Bondarenko went to Ulyanovsk to protest against the renaming of Lenin Square and took part in the assault on the city hall. In the summer, Nikolai Bondarenko was summoned for interrogation to the Investigative Committee: United Russia Ivan Kuzmin, who was the post of speaker of the Duma (and who previously worked as the director of the Saratov circus), wrote an application for extremism for criticism of pension reform.

In the fall, Bondarenko spoke at the “pension” rally and with a crowd of citizens reached the passing regional government. Citizens chanted: "Radaev, come out!" And "Bondarenko - well done!" It was on the weekend, the doors were locked. Having shouted about ten minutes, the protesters made a selfie with the deputy and parted. Thanks to the police, the story received a spectacular continuation: a few days later, the law enforcement officers came for the Communist right in the regional committee of the Communist Party. The video of the detention flies around the Runet. On Saratov, single pickets were held in support of the opposition. The court limited himself to a fine of 25 thousand rubles.

“All this in the very near future you will see in the Diary of the Deputy! It's just a fire! " -At least once a week, Bondarenko posts a video about the Duma everyday life on his own Yutyub channel, actively leads pages in social networks.

Today, a promising politician remains the poorest of the parliamentary opposition. As indicated in the declaration of Nikolai Bondarenko, his annual income amounted to 57.8 thousand rubles. Together with his wife, he owns an apartment of 72.4 square meters. m, has VAZ-21074 and Hyundai Solaris.
