“People know we’re not all the same.” It is with this justification that the leadership of SYRIZA reads a new political scene. The pain can turn into a democratic explosion in the Constitution and other squares, cause an anti-systemic wave, but the official opposition believes, as a high-ranking official in K says, that it is not directed against them. The social media hype and the upcoming strengthening of the smaller formations set the conditions for May 2012, which they are watching closely. These were elections when the “big ones were crushed” and seven parties entered the parliament, in the conditions of society fatigue, and four more (“Environmental Greens”, “LAOS”, “Democratic Alliance” and “Creation Again”) did not receive a ticket with percentages from 2.1% to 2.9%, with 665,920 votes.

In such an environment, SYRIZA regulates the situation very carefully. Alexis Tsipras, respecting national mourning, refrained from public speaking until Friday, while giving clear instructions to keep his tone low so that the party would not be confused with the extremes of the political spectrum. An attack with stones thrown by 4-5 hooded men at the windows of Komunduru’s office on Wednesday, as well as at a Greek police car provided to the former prime minister, was regarded as an episode without substance or significance. which may have been planned in advance.

According to Kumunduru, Maximos’ political goal is “to mortify my soul after the other sexes”.

The tragic accident at Tempi was, they say, a turning point for the government, which is now trying to drag SYRIZA into an “outside fire” along the line of blame. Punctuality, the first housing auctions, changes in labor relations, bankruptcy code, pandemic management, snow paralysis in 2022 and wiretapping did not create the “current” they wanted in SYRIZA. Now, however, they believe that the state’s “nudity,” which has been exposed in retrospect in railroads’ highly problematic work, justifies their criticism of all previous issues.

The rock attack on the Koumoundourou offices last Wednesday is rated as a minor event.

The official opposition participates in all mobilizations supporting the need for mass reactions and will continue to do so. PASOK and KKE supported the proposal of Panos Skurletis to demand the suspension of the parliament session for an hour so that the deputies could take part in the rally. Most, they argue, are back in isolation. Nikos Fili’s outburst at the Education Committee, which deviated from the soft line drawn by Alexis Tsipras, may have been commented on at a meeting of the executive apparatus, as published by “K”, but the deputy from SYRIZA received no comments. It was believed that the emotional burden of the death of dozens of people is normal until it happens again. Criticism of “cautious doses” somehow ended last week. Alexis Tsipras is preparing a keynote speech – either in Parliament or in another public speech – that will analyze what exactly happened and, with suggestions, describe the “concern” of SYRIZA to get the train back on the tracks as soon as possible, as it is a folk remedy that serves citizens. The files, produced by Nikos Pappas and Christos Spirtzis, include the party’s actions on the railways between 2015-2019, as well as bad lyrics from the past four years.

Using the terminology of the time, Komunduru officials emphasized that “the key has been turned” and that the “diagonal” passed by the fateful train in the opposite direction, in addition to trusting the government, also nullifies the political counter. In the daily meetings they have in Kumundura, they appreciate that in Maximu they know that self-confidence is now a thing of the past. For this, after all, it is not ruled out that in the near future the “blue” faction will begin to build “sweet eyes” on PASOK as the only hope not to move away from Herodos Attica. Previously, too, they considered victory in elections as a simple proportionality.

As to when the popular verdict would be requested, opinion was divided. There are leaders who believe that if Kyriakos Mitsotakis had insisted on his original position on holding elections on April 9, he would very quickly be able to break the monothematic nature of the accident, which constantly rubs salt in the wound of the majority. Others believe that the “life extension” sought by the prime minister to quell anger and bring angry centre-right voters back to their base will produce meager results.

“We want the election date to be set whenever it is,” everyone in Kumunduru says with one voice, with the first public opinion polls since the accident, as well as data from focus groups conducted over the past few days. Besides the fall of the New Democracy, the prime minister’s initial reference to “human error,” a “shared” apology with other governments that were five days late, and the fact that the fatal accident happened four years later are three points. that, as they stand, they are worth Maximos.

The waters, however, are still uncharted as society “boils” and only a “safe” time distance from the Tempe tragedy can capture the real picture. SYRIZA recognizes that, all the more so, now they cannot count on the creation of a favorable climate by the forces of the allies. In the same way, PASOK, MeRA25 and of course the KKE will look for new space for the opposition to win over people who are moving into the gray zone. As for the purpose of the elections, it has not changed. The starting point and base is 31.5% 2019. According to their estimates, if this number is exceeded, SYRIZA will either win the simple proportional vote Sunday and blow the whistle of the electoral process, or enter the second battle with very good prospects.
