Slovenia's opposition Social Democrats (SD) have defeated the centre-right Democratic Party of Prime Minister Janez Jansa in Sunday's parliamentary election. Preliminary official results show the Social Democrats led by Borut Pahor are likely to win 29 seats in Slovenia's 90-seat parliament. The Election Commission said the ruling centre-right SDS party won 28 seats. Political observers say the Social Democrats are likely to form a coalition government with two other left-leaning parties.
Mr Pahor is a former young communist and one-time male model Mr Jansa is hoping to gain a new four-year mandate

Heh LOL. Jana is a former young communist, too. Pahor may have been a male model at some time, but he has a university degree and was involved in politics early on -- in the same rainbow press style, BBC could have mentioned Jana's affairs. *Lunatic*, n. One whose delusions are out of fashion.
Gah... another Central European Centre-Leftist who still sees Bliar (and Schröder) as role model. Then again, in the campaign, he pushed for more redistribution, Third Wayism more transpired in a commitment to continue with a slow-paced privatisation of state companies. *Lunatic*, n. One whose delusions are out of fashion.
