“After his three no’s PASOK to speed up ASEP recruitment, to the Ombudsman and to improve the framework for waste management, which among other things will save us from European fines, today the new representative of PASOK, Mr. Tsoukalas, blasted the new permanent mechanism for calculating the minimum wage,” said Nikos Romanos.

Its press representative SW he noted that the mechanism for calculating the minimum wage is an integration of a European directive, it offers security to workers, since it ensures that the minimum wage is not reduced under any condition, it ensures that as prices rise and as the productivity of the economy rises, the minimum wage will increase salary, extends to civil servants, creating an additional safety net for them as well, is based on objective data from ELSTAT and offers visibility to businesses.

“Either Mr. Tsoukalas thinks he has become a representative of SYRIZA, or PASOK has become SYRIZA for good,” Mr. Romanos emphasized.

Earlier, the representative of PASOK, Kostas Tsoukalas had stated:

“The Prime Minister confirmed the government’s failure to solve the major social problems caused by its choices and omissions.

While he stubbornly refuses to reduce the VAT for four years and while the inflationary crisis is raging which has reduced the purchasing power of the citizens to the penultimate place in the EU, today he said that he will consider it!

With the reheated announcement of an emergency aid, -already from the TIF-, he avoided the slightest substantial commitment to support pensioners, whose income is distributed by the personal difference and the solidarity levy.

Despite the tax surpluses, he referred to the calendars for the reduction of tax rates and presumptions.

He had not a single word to say about the discrediting of the National Health System.

Citizens’ real income is steadily declining and inequalities are widening rapidly.

It is now clear that Mr. Mitsotakis neither wants nor can stand on the side of the underprivileged and the middle classes.

The social majority has a choice. A strong PASOK”.
