Alexis Tsipras made clear that Defence Minister Panos Kammenos’ stance on the Greece-FYROM Prespa Agreement poses a problem for the government’s parliamentary majority.

Tsipras said that if necessary he will seek the confidence vote before he tables for ratification the Greece-FYROM accord.

Mitsotakis said Alexis Tsipras and SYRIZA will destroy the country if they complete their term in office.

His party is crumbling. His MPs and cadres have already joined the Tsipras bandwagon, and Kammenos is feeling the earth move under his feet.

The era of warm embraces between PM Alexis Tsipras and Independent Greeks leader Panos Kammenos appears to have passed, despite their mutual passion for power.

Tsipras and his SYRIZA party have been outwardly optimistic about garnering the necessary simple majority of 151 votes in the 300-seat legislature,

The more handouts the government announces the more the main opposition party’s lead in the polls is grows.

In the economy, the government appears for purely electotral reasons to be testing its limits with pledges, civil service hiring, and various handouts.

The centre-left Movement for Change and extreme-right, nationalist Golden Dawn are tied for third place with seven percent of the vote, followed by the Greek Communist Party (KKE) with six percent.

The country and its political life must rid themselves of the habit of using the date of elections as a means to achieving political aims.

'When you hear someone boasting about his own ethos and altruism, it is best to put your hand in your pocket to protect your wallet,” Alavanos quipped.

' I believe that the SYRIZA-Independent Greeks government is the moral the mastermind of this attack,' Alafouzos said.

Economic policy must be decided with those who are economically weakest in mind, and not with the vote-mongering rationale of past decades.

The leadership and members of SYRIZA indiscriminately and unabashedly depicted their political opponents as either traitors or thieves.

Το δικό του αμερικάνικο όνειρο... αλά ελληνικά όμως κατάφερε να ζήσει ο Μανώλης Πετσίτης μέσα σε εντυπωσιακά σύντομο χρονικό διάστημα που "συνέπεσε" με την άνοδο του ΣΥΡΙΖΑ στην εξουσία. Χιλιάδες ευρώ ξοδεύονταν αλλά το... Μαξίμου δεν τον ξέρει. Αδιάψευστος μάρτυρας η σέλφι του πρωθυπουργού με τον Πετσίτη...

With its customary opportunism, the government has managed to transform the Greece-FYROM Prespa Agreement into a domestic problem that has divided society and the government itself.

When asked which party they believe will win the next election, 53.8 percent said New Democracy and only 23.4 percent said SYRIZA.

Was there a transfer of illegal campaign and other contributions in order to serve Lavrentiadis?

The targeting of the media was and is the foundation of the PM’s political career. Like many other populist leaders, it was and is his fervent desire to control and subjugate the press.

Alavanos charged that before the elections Tsipras 'offered ribbons and lollipops hoping to lure the electorate', and said that SYRIZA is 'the most poisonous opponent of the Left'.

For electoral reasons, the government pretends that the country that has left behind the economic crisis, when it is abundantly clear that it is still very much with us.

It is clear that pledges of handouts will continue, despite the fact that they impact negatively on investments and growth.

The poll indicates that New Democracy may be able to form a single-party government if it manages to garner at least 35 percent of the popular vote.

As was evidence by yesterday’s meeting between Gennimata and Simitis, the amoral attack against the former PM resulted in the entire centre-left party rallying to support him.

Acts of violence do not honour those killed during the Polytechnic uprising. Instead, they besmirch and desecrate an anniversary that should be an occasion for a democratic rallying cry.
