Socrates Famelos: In the next election there must be a progressive pattern against Mitsotakis

The president of Syriza Socrates Famelos, speaking at Kontra Channel on Friday night (03/01/2025) stressed, among other things, that “the dialogue in the progressive area must not stop at all. It must be strengthened with credibility. CORVERSE The aim is to achieve a progressive proposal moving forward and our country. In the next parliamentary elections, Mr Mitsotakis must have a progressive shape that can, not just overthrow it, but exercise policies for the benefit of society. We want a progressive change. Alone and alone no one and no one can solve the problems of life and society.” As far as SYRIZA is concerned, I said that “it must grow, because first of all the country needs a dynamic opposition. Consensual opposition is not done.” CORVERSE “When the citizen feels deadlock every time he goes to a super market, the culprit is specific. It’s government policy. These problems cannot be solved by consensus. You have to say who’s to blame and what needs to be changed. I say very simply: The government must change,” the president of SYRIZA stressed. The dialogue in the progressive area must not stop in any way. It must be strengthened with credibility. The aim is to achieve a progressive proposal moving forward and our country.

A family of two workers under 950€ can’t handle it. It’s a family of poor workers. Mr Mitsotakis may say that unemployment has been reduced, but half the new jobs we have in the last period are part-time and flexible jobs that are not even paid at the minimum wage. 70% of employees have fees below 950€. A family of two workers under 950€ can’t handle it. It’s a family of poor workers. Mr Mitsotakis may say that unemployment has been reduced, but half the new jobs we have in the last… — Socrates Famellos (@Sfamellos) There is rich potential in the country, young and young with many degrees that do not find a future. And there’s anger and agony. We will talk about these citizens. For young people and young people who want to live and prosper in Greece, but do not find perspective.” “Mitsotakis collects more than budget” Of bank gains Socrates Famellus said: “Superprofits from banks do not become taxes that enter the funds. There is already an excess of taxes and especially because of the high increase in inflation and hence VAT revenue. Mr Mitsotakis collects more than he budgets and does not reduce VAT. Overprofits from banks should not become taxes that enter the funds. There is already an excess of taxes and especially because of the high increase in inflation and hence VAT revenue. Mr Mitsotakis collects more than he budgets and does not reduce VAT. … — Socrates Famellos (@SFamellos) This is crazy and unacceptable. We call the proceeds from the bank’s surplus profits to become a housing policy fund. Innovative entrepreneurship also needs to be strengthened. Small and medium-sized enterprises, new enterprises, youth businesses must be supported by these resources.” “No one-party choice the President of the Republic” Responsibility to the government for the way the debate on the President of the Republic was opened was blamed by Socrates Famellus. In particular he stated: “Our position is that we must first of all protect the institution. The debate, which opened on the Southwest side, left many unanswered questions. Why did he open it? What does he want to serve and serve? Does the ND want to make any criticism indirectly or directly to today’s President of the Republic? ND is not allowed to play games with such an important issue by looking inside its party. It is more important to have understanding than to propose a name as SYRIZA-PS just to highlight our own initiative, but at the risk of overturning a possible consensus. We say that we must, first of all, at the responsibility of the government, ensure that we do not have a one-party nomination and a one-party choice at the end.” Putting the political context he said: “Unfortunately in our country we have serious problems and violation of the Constitution with the responsibility of the government, but also serious problems in the rule of law. So our discussion must not create more. That’s why we’re very careful. We will meet and I have clearly said that the SYRIZA-PS will not make any surprise. Since we are proposing progressive cooperation we should also have a debate among progressive parties.”
