Will there be a question of party discipline in SYRIZA in view of the bill that New Democracy will bring to vote on the marriage and procreation of same-sex couples, or not? Is the initial statement by Stefanos Kasselakis about the deletion of those who do not vote valid, or the statement of the representative of SYRIZA Dora Avgeris, who said today that the MPs will NOT be deleted, or is the new – today – wording of Stefanos Kasselakis that he will… rule once he has read the New Democracy bill, insisting that if a member of the party deviates, he will make the corresponding decisions as president?

The initial statement of Stefanos Kasselakis in his television interview was clear. The president of SYRIZA said that anyone who does not vote in favor of the bill for same-sex couples will be deleted. Afterwards Mrs. Avgeri… canceled it, saying that the deputies will not be deleted.

After Augeri’s statements, Mr. Kasselakis with his new position sent a clear message to the SYRIZA MPs, warning – indirectly but clearly – that whoever does not vote in favor of the bill, “I will take the corresponding decisions”.

The new statement of the president of SYRIZA in more detail:

“To avoid misunderstandings:

1) We have not seen a single word of what the ND wants to bring to consultation. The SYRIZA law proposal remains at the disposal of the government and has been tabled by all SYRIZA MPs.

2) It is not understood that a Member of Parliament of the Left party stands against human rights and social progress.

When I see the ND bill, I will let you know my opinion. Straightforward and honest, as always.

If this actually promotes equality, even imperfectly, then SYRIZA will prevail. In this scenario, if a Member of Parliament deviates from the path of progress and equality, I will take the appropriate decisions.”
