The motion of censure of the “87” (accompanied by 100 signatures) against Stefanos Kasselakis was finally filed. The Central Committee will decide whether SYRIZA will be led to internal party elections. In order for the proposal to pass, it is necessary 50% plus one of all the members of the Central Committee.

“I believed in Kasselakis, but he doesn’t…”

Pavlos Polakis made self-criticism for his support for Stefanos Kasselakis. “I believed in Kasselakis and supported him, but I fell out. He does not make for the president of SYRIZA” he explained in his speech at the SYRIZA Central Committee, directly raising the issue of leadership. “I am running for president of SYRIZA” announced in this context.

Pavlos Polakis asked for the election of president and did not submit a motion of censure, while he developed his program for the relegation of SYRIZA. It was preceded by the motion of censure of “87”.

Speaking earlier about the return of Pavlos Polakis to KO, the president of SYRIZA said that he displayed an improper behavior. “I was seduced by a play and when this was proved my own morality dictated the correction of the error. I preferred to feel good about myself and let me know that I will see headlines that Kasselakis submitted to Polakis”.

File a motion of impeachment against me”

“File a motion of censure against me” was the message of Stefanos Kasselakis earlier during his speech at the KE. “As tempting as it is to pick up the gauntlet, I choose to abide by the legality and the statute. File a motion of censure against me,” he said.

“The grassroots will judge the censure… I was chosen to change everything, to dissolve every faction every shop and shophouseend the baronies, end the coalition of factions” explained the president of SYRIZA.

“Instead of some people telling them to leave, they are telling their president to leave. We live as a party what Gramsci has said “the old has died and the new is slow to be born”. And the old one does what it always does, it will deny that it has been overcome and prevent the new from being born.”

“When I go to leave ahead, a radical change, I’m trapped by a system which is made to not change anything. SYRIZA either changes or sinks, that is the truth. I will try with all my strength so that the new and the new are born. The struggle is difficult and unequal. The clearing for SYRIZA is the statutory conference”, Stefanos Kasselakis also said.

“He turned SYRIZA into a Trump formation”

“Mr. Kasselakis confirmed today that the executives who formed the New Left were offered positions, chairs and offices. The departure from Kasselaki’s party was not done for the sake of the chairs, but because it was beyond obvious the course of degeneration, the transformation of SYRIZA into a Trump formation, the ridicule, the discredit and finally the shrinking” reports the New Left, commenting on the speech of its president SYRIZA in the KE.

“In almost a year of Kasselakis’ leadership, the party that once ruled the country turned into a reality show producing toxicity, parapolitics and antipolitics, certainly offering much better services to Mr. Mitsotakis than if he had finally accepted to become his Minister,” the party emphasizes.

“One year later, it is confirmed that Mr. Kasselakis and his supporters are the real underminers, not only for their party but for the entire Left and the progressive space” concludes New Left.
