Since 2012 and for 13 consecutive years, SYRIZA has been in Thessaloniki either as a government or as an opposition. Things have changed this year and it is not something they calculated in Koumoundourou a year ago. Even last year in September when the party changed face with the dismissal of Stefanos Kasselakis from the presidency, the opposition’s weekend was represented by the head of the parliamentary group, Nikos Pappas. Changing and loss of institutional role is something that has hurt the party from the first moment. However, adapting to new data was necessary. THE Nikos Androulakis He will make his “Deputo” as leader of the second parliamentary party in eight days and this is something that does not change.

Beyond the tour that will take place in Pella, Imathia and Pieria from tomorrow Socrates He will be in his home country on September 10-11. On the first day the speech will be held at Vellidio (19.00) and the next press conference. The president of SYRIZA has already made many contacts with social and productive actors last week to form his final speech and the program to be presented. SYRIZA’s participation will also be in the September 6th demonstrations in the presence of Socrates.

What they say in Koumoundourou is that the Kyriakos Mitsotakis Despite the announcements made and the “package” of benefits he is preparing to announce, he should answer Greek society on three key issues:

  • What will he do with the housing problem that worsened
  • How to deal with energy accuracy
  • How will households support from supermarkets and school supplies.

At the presentation of the party program at Velidio the Socrates It will highlight the amendments tabled by the party to reinstate the 13th pension, as well as the 13th and 14th salaries to the State. The priority for SYRIZA remains the abolition of VAT in certain goods and its reduction in the islands and small and medium -sized enterprises. The president is also expected to propose the issue of OPEKEPE, the institutional derailment that has arisen in Parliament in late July, as well as in what will follow in the fall with the establishment of the Inquiry Committee on September 15 onwards.

The meetings held in Koumoundourou highlight are the need to make the start of the party’s reconstitution and at a parliamentary level. Creating an electoral front with the new left is in the designs in a new effort today’s balances to change. Time is pushing and given that PASOK has chosen to move solely by TIF alone is the best opportunity for Socrates Famello to send new messages for the reconstitution of the space against the government.

In SYRIZA they avoid participating in all the script that develops on party creation Alexis Tsipras. There has never been a matter, as they point out, on the part of the President, about the former prime minister’s speech at the Economist. Just the program of K. Famellou does not allow him to be present and the Christos Giannoulis He will represent him. It will be of great interest, however, which executives and MPs will have secured the coveted invitation and will be in Velidio tomorrow afternoon when Mr Tsipras will close his Economist work.
