Αλλά για να να βαφτίσεις την ψήφο «λευκή επιταγή», το έγκλημα στα Τέμπη «κακιά στιγμή» και τον αγώνα επιβίωσης «ζωή» τελικά καμία «Ομάδα Αλήθειας» δεν είναι αρκετή. Σε άλλα νέα τελείωσε η ιλαροτραγωδία Τριαντόπουλου στη Βουλή, συνεχίζεται η φαρσοκωμωδία με το μάδημα της μαργαρίτας για συνεργασία στην Κεντροαριστερά

Η διαγραφή Σαλμά θα απασχολήσει τη Νέα Δημοκρατία την ίδια ώρα που στον ΣΥΡΙΖΑ ο Κασσελάκης ετοιμάζει come back με ανακοίνωση της υποψηφιότητάς του και στο ΠΑΣΟΚ κάνουν προθέρμανση για το debate.

The first exit poll results presented by the country’s most popular broadcaster

Πού τα δίνει η ΝΔ και από πού θα χρηματοδοτήσει τις αυξήσεις μισθών. Ποιο το όφελος από την αύξηση αφορολόγητου

The balance of the election and the fear of electoral losses due to Polakis prodded the entire SYRIZA party and its Political Secretariat unanimously to embrace him once again.

If the wrong road leads to disputing a defeat and, even worse, of the electoral outcome, then the downhill slide will be much more dangerous.

The PM described main opposition SYRIZA as a populist party that makes unfeasible pledges in a variety of areas, and suggested that a SYRIZA government would jeopardise the country’s economic progress.

The findings of the GPO poll published by Ta Nea clearly highlight a prospective future problem – the danger of not being able to form a stable, viable government after the next general elections.

The youth, working people, businesses small and large, and pensioners constitute critical pools of voters. They are not electoral audiences that seek simplistic answers to complex issues.

The word solidarity has meaning when it is not the product of calculation or used as a tool in battle to transcend obstacles

Parties, when they maintain that their morals and demeanour are better than those the others, must demonstrate that this is not merely hollow rhetoric.

'We are obliged to keep fiscal reserves so as to have room to support households and businesses to the extent possible. We shall not lead the country to fiscal derailment.'

Pollsters believe that his management of successive crises has favoured Mr. Mitsotakis, and that after three years in power ND has not suffered strategic blows

The contemporary dilemmas in the West are not so much right vs. left, but rather progress vs. conservatism, stability vs. adventurism, and liberalism vs. populism.

If a coalition government were to be formed, the most desirable partner for ND would be PASOK, whose new leader Nikos Androulakis has for now ruled out the prospect.

SYRIZA, however, has made only a 0.6 percentage point gain, and ND has lost one percentage point since a March Economic Barometer survey conducted by the same company..

The current major geopolitical and economic challenges have unfortunately once again brought populism to the fore in many Western societies.

When PM as leader of the top party [SYRIZA has long trailed behind ND in all polls] raises the prospect of a coalition government, other party leaders cannot dodge the issue and turn a blind eye to new realities.

While opposition parties are calling for a hike in social spending, the government is signalling that support offered to households and businesses to weather the pandemic has nearly exhausted its fiscal space.

As long as SYRIZA continues to appeal mainly to the emotions of the public, both PM Kyriakos Mitsotakis and centre-left KINAL leader Nikos Androulakis have an opportunity to gain ground among centrist voters.

SYRIZA leader Alexis Tsipras garners the lion’s share among those who declare themselves centre-left voters, with 43.5 percent, followed by Androulakis with 23.3 percent.

The current government, which came to power in 2019, was not able to implement its electoral platform, as the public health crisis that ensued and its negative impact disorganised everything.

Although no serious person denies that Greece had allowed dysfunctions to fester for years, a mere glance at the course of public debt and of deficits demonstrates that they skyrocketed in the 2004-2009 period [on Karamanlis’ watch].

KINAL/PASOK must prove that it can stand firmly in the centre of the political spectrum, with a distinct Social Democratic platform, and without being crushed under the weight of pressures from New Democracy and SYRIZA.

Though the government has reached its lowest point yet in polls - not long after the botched handling of the recent snowstorm in Athens. New Democracy’s decline has not benefited SYRIZA, but KINAL/PASOK’s numbers have been rising.
