The President of PASOK-Movement for Change pointed out need to take measures-shield in societysuch as the imposition of a ceiling on the adjustment clause and the increase of the tariff, the taxation of the super profits of the energy companies, the reduction of the VAT on food, the increase to 751 euros of the minimum wage and a new EKAS for the low-income pensioners.
“The ND government has shown a great deal of timidity. During the pandemic period decided a huge budget expansion of 43 billion euros. He claims that he is financially responsible while during the pandemic he showed fiscal irresponsibility and now he has no room to make the interventions made by other European countries to reduce energy costs. “For months now he had to say that he would tax the super profits of the big companies because there is speculation”, pointed out Mr. Androulakis.
He was eager for the Prime Minister to recognize the need for social housing, a program that Mr. Androulakis has proposed months ago and even discussed with the Portuguese Prime Minister Antonio Costa. “The Prime Minister says that the PASOK-Movement for Change has no positions. Then he understands that what we say is feasible and he tries to find something to say. It is possible, if he believes it as a policy, that in the recovery fund that the Portuguese put 26,000 houses, the Spaniards 20,000 houses, the Italians 10,000 houses, Greece, which Mr. Mitsotakis knows the problem as he claims, has put only 70 houses in Athens and 30 in Thessaloniki? Is this his knowledge and sensitivity to this very big issue? “
Referring to public health issues on the eve of the regional health conference held at the Vellideio Conference Center, the president of PASOK-Movement for Change stressed the opposition of the ND government’s choice to channel only 4.5% of the funds to public health. of the Recovery Fund while for example Italy channel 10%.

“The bet for our party is to be the strongest progressive force of responsibility in the country, which will talk about everything responsibly and not partisanly. ND and SYRIZA have the perception that the purpose sanctifies the means. They divide society on issues for which the people had to be united and respond with unity and perception of the international environment. “PASOK’s ambition is to show another way”, Mr. Androulakis underlined, commenting on the political developments.
