“For many years now, we have proven with actions and not words that when issues of individual behavior are raised we do not discount and proceed with decisions like today’s. This attitude of ours is self-evident, not only to our voters, but to all Greek citizens,” the ND Press Office said in a statement.

He points out that it is infuriating, and at the same time deeply hypocritical, for SYRIZA to leave the ND. “The party that throughout time “boasts” about the “absolute Cretan” of successive threats, prescripts and thuggery, and which it never dared to permanently delete.

The party that not only did not remove, but on the contrary placed in the front line, a former minister who has been irrevocably convicted by the justice system for serious crimes,” he says.

Finally, ND emphasizes that “if the word “butthole” made SYRIZA known throughout Europe, the concept “chair in every way” is what characterized them and still distinguishes them to this day.”

He calls on SYRIZA, instead of “wagging the finger” at New Democracy, to self-criticize on matters of moral and political behavior, and to provide answers for its officials.
