Will the Albanian Parliament become like a football "marketplace"?

I'm talking about having Democratic Party MPs join other parties in coalition with it in order to help them form groups of MPs in the Assembly.

I don't find it fair at all, and even very disturbing, what I'm being informed about in the media about what the Democratic Party intends to do with its MPs.

If the information is always correct! If not, I apologize!

I'm talking about having Democratic Party MPs join other parties in coalition with it in order to help them form groups of MPs in the Assembly.

In this way, their political weight is increased, their speaking time is increased, they are given more finances, etc.
It doesn't seem right to me at all, I don't want to say what I think, but it seems scandalous to me, and one of those mistakes that they then forget and ask: Is it the people's fault?

Why do I call it wrong?

1. Because an elected MP has a political credo, so it is assumed that he is a democrat. When he is put into other parliamentary groups belonging to other parties, he agrees to officially change his political credo, becoming who knows, agrarian, republican, Arvanitas, minority, or who knows, something else. This makes him or her publicly declared as a politician who, for pragmatic purposes, changes his shirt whenever he wants! Why not become a socialist tomorrow too?

2. It is a game with the democratic electorate, which votes for the deputies for the Democrats, when suddenly on a September morning they wake up dressed in other political colors. Will the opposition learn to listen to its electorate, or will it not care about it after getting the votes?

3. It gives a false picture of the Albanian political spectrum by artificially showing that some political parties that do not have enough votes to form a parliamentary group, form it with "players" borrowed from the democratic party. In this way, it is precisely the democratic party, if it does, that influences the creation of an illusory image of parliamentary democracy, thus serving a propaganda as if we have an Assembly with several political voices.

4. By taking its deputies to other political groups, the democratic party in a way controls these opposition parties, because of course if it later withdraws its deputies, or threatens to withdraw, the other party groups will feel it in the budgets, etc.

5. If this were to happen, which I would not want, we would have another case of financial corruption carried out through political mechanisms, because money from the budget would be spent artificially by giving it to political parties that normally should not have parliamentary groups.

I hope that the democratic party does not fall into this temptation that turns the Assembly into a market for loans or "sales" of players like the football market. If it did, "good luck", but it does not get surprised afterwards by rolling its eyes at the ceiling and saying: wow, how does this happen to us!
