Left-wing populism

A new opinion poll shows the ruling New Democracy party with a 22.8 percentage point lead over main opposition SYRIZA in voting intentions.

For many years, the leftist main opposition couldn't stop talking about the "systemic media," the "media of intertwining interests," and the "sewer media." The latter was a loan from the extreme right, which also called it "porn media."

“A good start”, the Prime Minister wished the president of SYRIZA and asked him if he has adapted – Kasselaki’s answer and the debate about the diaspora

Inflation is a major issue for almost nine out of 10 people who took part in a Pulse poll presented on Skai TV on Tuesday.

More specifically inflation and price increases were a "great concern" for 63% and "quite a concern" for 23%. In fact, almost half of the respondents said that food is the category of family expenses that concerns them the most. 

Ruling New Democracy enjoys a 18.5-point lead over main opposition SYRIZA, according to an opinion poll conducted by Pulse, on behalf of Skai TV. 

The parliamentary group of SYRIZA-Progressive Alliance is scheduled to meet on Tuesday.

The session will commence with a speech from the leader of the main opposition party, Stefanos Kasselakis.

The results of the first opinion poll after the regional and local elections capture the mood of a public that is watching, in real time, the disintegration of the party that is the main opposition and which rose to government in 2015 with promises and commitments that could not be implemented (but even if they had been implemented they would have been disastrous for the country).

A second opinion poll in as many days as indicated that main opposition SYRIZA is less than two points ahead of third-place socialist PASOK, while ruling New Democracy remains way ahead.

The executive office of the main opposition is meeting on Thursday afternoon on Thursday for the first time under SYRIZA's new leadership amid an internal strife that broke out with the expulsion of top officials by Stefanos Kasselakis.

The meeting is scheduled at 4.30 p.m. at the party headquarters.

Two lawmakers of the main opposition filed on Tuesday a criminal complaint with the prosecution of the Supreme Court asking it to investigate whether a minister and a former regional governor attempted to deceive voters ahead of local elections a few weeks ago.
