EFIMERIDA TON SYNTAKTON

Fishing from the far right, smearing the Left

In order to attract votes the Prime Ministerial Mansion of Maximou launches black propaganda.

The government is playing with fire as it puts Golden Dawn at the heart of the pre-election debate
New Democracy has re-heated the theory of the ‘two extremes’ [according to which the far left is equated with the neo-nazi far right] and is attacking the opposition party.

The government is walking down dangerous paths as it attacks SYRIZA, using Golden Dawn. It has even reached the point of talking of a ‘flirtation’ of the Left with the neonazi organisation at the same time that it covets its voters.  

The tone was set by [government spokesperson] SImos Kedikoglou who referred to an announcement made by C. Goudis, a Golden Dawn candidate, who was, however, a long time high ranking member of New Democracy and [Antonis Samaras’s party] Political Spring.

SYRIZA swimming in murky waters

Mr Tsipras described Golden Dawn voters as having gone ‘astray.

SYRIZA is ‘fishing’ in murky waters in the final run up to European elections and the second round of local elections. After successive ‘openings’ officials and candidates of the opposition party have made to the voters of Golden Daw, yesterday Alexis Tsipras himself in an interview on SKAI TV described them as having gon ‘astray’ reasoning that the majoirty of them are not neonazis. He did however add that ‘with the leadership of Golden Dawn we have  a head-on confrontation.’ On the other hand the Prime Minister Antonis Samaras – and while [former PM] Kostas Karamanlis sent a message of support to New Democracy – diametrically opposed the neonazi party, speaking at an event in remembrance of the battle of Crete in Malema. “Blood sacrifices, and historical memory is grossly offended from those who bear today the sybols of nazism” he underlined while officials from the Prime Ministerial mansion describe SYRIZA’s move as extreme and opportunistic. Mr Evangelos Venizelos called on SYRIZA to join the fight against nazis and Golden Dawn and stressed that ‘it is unthinkable and historically forbidden to flirt in any way with these forces.’

Panic after the ‘bomb’ over waste

Following yesterday’s revelation by ‘E’ [over the EU suspension of funding of waste management projects] the Ministry of Development and the Regional Governor offices of Attica and the Peloponnese are rushing to justify the unjustifiable. With almost identical statements they attempted to maintain that there is no funding problem. ‘E’ responds with new informaiton over the management of waste in the Region of the Peloponnese of which the Commissioner for the Internal Market is aware. [SYRIZA – supported regional governor candidates] Rena Dourou and Odysseas Voudouris launched scathing attacks on the incumbents and their rivals in Sunday’s runoff election.
