Bulgaria Without Censorship (Bulgarian: България без цензура, Balgariya bez tsenzura) is a populist political party in Bulgaria.[3]

History

The party was created by former TV host Nikolay Barekov in January 2014. It ran for the first time in the May 2014 European Parliament election,[4] taking one seat in the European Parliament as part of a coalition with IMRO and joined the soft eurosceptic group of European Conservatives and Reformists.[5]

This BBT-IMRO coalition did not last, however, and IMRO left to team up with other nationalist parties for the parliamentary elections of October 2014.[6] On 18 August 2014 BBT sealed a collation agreement with Lider to run in the upcoming elections.[7]
