The leader of the official opposition, Alexis Tsipras, harshly criticized the Government, in statements that he made, during his tour, in the central market of Kalamaria in Thessaloniki.
“Society is experiencing a deep crisis. The spike in prices has triggered chain increases in all types of basic consumption. At the same time, income remains steadily declining. “These are conditions of social crisis and unfortunately the Mitsotaki Government is not able to deal with the phenomenon,” he said.
Commenting on the Prime Minister’s message yesterday for the emergency measures to deal with the energy crisis, he said “yesterday Mr. Mitsotakis addressed a speech to the Greek people to talk about support measures, which are measures that the citizen will not even feel . He said he wanted to be useful and not likeable. Where he wants he is liked. In tax breaks on the great wealth, in millions in SMEs, in direct assignments. “But when it comes to supporting the employee, the household and the citizen, the salary has remained stable for years.”
Then he added “he lied that this crisis allegedly came in the last days of the war. The crisis has been going on for months. He did not move to face it, on the contrary, with his choices, he has become a multiplier of this crisis. At the moment we are seeing the filthy profits, in the skyrocketing profits of the energy producers to remain intact. “In fact, false subsidies are given while the mechanism of notoriety remains intact.”
Mr. Tsipras then estimated that “the increase of the minimum wage to 800 euros, the reduction of the excise tax, the reduction of the VAT and the ceiling on electricity and natural gas are measures that can provide a way out of the crisis” .
The president of SYRIZA also stressed that the country deserves a government of responsibility and not a government of excuse.
