Christian Democrats want vote of no-confidence in coalition

The opposition Christian Democrats say they wish to convene the Czech lower house for a vote of no-confidence in the government of ANO, Freedom and Direct Democracy and the Motorists.

The party’s leader, Jan Grolich, said on Tuesday that the coalition’s planned budget deficit for next year contravened its own policy statement. Mr. Grolich said the government should amend its budget plans and seek a vote of confidence in the Chamber of Deputies.
