Attack unleashes the Minister of State Akis Skertsos against the official opposition and its leader, Stefanos Kasselakis, on the occasion of the latter’s announcement to abolish parliamentary immunity.

Specifically, he states “someone should inform Mr. Kasselakis who informed us today that if he takes power the first thing he will do will be the abolition of parliamentary immunity, that this is expressly provided for and protected by Article 62 of the Constitution” and notes:

“Consequently, the leader of the official opposition, who once told us as another SYRIZA member that he is “every word of the Constitution”, knows neither the Constitution, nor the (time-consuming) procedures that define its amendment, nor the powers of the executive power and the prime minister. Unless he’s dreaming of some kind of coup.

Commonly, he tells blatant lies true to his party’s tradition. The reality is, of course, that there is a significant difference because we have seen such political illiteracy and adventurism since the time of the Golden Dawn.

Really, SYRIZA never ceases to surprise us negatively all the time, and for another very serious reason: the removal of the framework of special protection of political figures (which is not a Greek peculiarity but a common international practice) leads to a completely class-based Parliament of the super-rich and oligarchs . In a Parliament of the descended Kasselakis.

Quite simply because no self-made citizen of the popular or middle class will choose to expose himself to a toxic political environment without some minimal institutional protections.

Finally, according to the Minister of State, “the shift of SYRIZA towards extreme political authoritarianism is truly impressive and comes with a vengeance to Greek society”. “Every sane citizen has a responsibility to mobilize with his vote in the upcoming elections and say a resounding no to the new and even more dangerous version of political populism that comes with a new wrapper but without any change in content at all,” concludes Mr. Skertsos.
