The expulsion of his MEP SYRIZANikos Pappa, requests with an announcement of New Republicfollowing his post attacking police officers.

Specifically, the announcement of New Democracy states the following:

“After the announcement of the Union of Greek Police Officers of Attica about the horrific attacks on police officers on social media by SYRIZA MEP Nikos Pappas, it is more than obvious that the Officer Opposition party is exclusively dominated by polarization. We are unable even to reproduce both the images and the sounds that have been released on the internet.

The gross and creepy behavior of Mr. Pappas is a brutal insult to our thousands of police officers, who with self-sacrifice, consistency, humanity and responsibility carry out the duty of protecting our fellow citizens. It is unthinkable that one of our country’s representatives in the European Parliament behaves like the worst thug and unleashes one threat after another.

This time we expect Mr. Kasselakis to do the obvious and dismiss Mr. Pappa. Let’s hope we don’t see another “half deletion”, like in the case of Polakis”.
