PROBLEM

The morally unimaginable choice of SYRIZA politician and MP candidate Zois Varelis-Stefanidis to reproduce on Twitter the front page of a well-known newspaper that “cripples” the private lives of the protagonists of current cases, this time on the occasion of the lawyer who convicted Alexis Georgoulis of rape and abuse. first raised the question of whether she should remain a candidate, although Kumunduru did not seem to consider that particular possibility last night. There is really no reason to repeat the vulgar content of the form here, however, after the angry reaction from PASOK, officially and individually (Pavlos Christidis and Odysseas Konstantinopoulos), Ms. Vareli-Stefanidis deleted her post. The candidate for deputy turned out to be the mother of the Olympic champion and world champion in pole vault Katerina Stefanidis. The day after the personal details of the lawyer (who is also a member of PASOK) became public and there were suspicions that they had been disclosed by SYRIZA, a fact that Koumundouru denied, Ms. Vareli-Stefanidis aggravated the situation.

ACCIDENT

Over the past few days, the parties have been arguing over an issue that is certain to affect any new government after the election. Regulation of citizens’ debts to the state. AADE has begun issuing instructions to include between 36 and 72 payments on debts created between November 1, 2021 and February 1, 2023, which has a strong pre-election connotation. From SYRIZA, they announced their own tax relief and inclusion program rationally targeted at small and medium-sized enterprises, bringing back the old proposition of a government backbone in the banking system. From PASOK, they characterize the settlement of the public debt as an “absolute failure”, and their own proposal for a “haircut” of 30% is returned to consistent.

FACE

Christoforos Papakaliatis and his latest creation, Maestro (filmed in enchanting Paxos), which has done well for a Greek TV series on the mass subscription platform Netflix, have found themselves — unintentionally — on the surface of the campaign. News. Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis, from Corfu where he was yesterday, had this to say: “Maestro”, who is doing amazing advertising in Greece in general, in Ionia, and not only, I would say, in Paxos, is a series that has benefited from financial instrument of this government.” In short, the Prime Minister was quick to announce the success of Papakaliatis’ series because, in the opinion of the government, a production of this magnitude would not have been possible without the resources eventually allocated to the cause. What is not specified is whether the premiere watched “Maestro”, the second season of which is already in production. Of course, the opposition believes that although tourism seems to have been constantly growing in the past two years, at the same time it has become an illusory dream for the natives, since the costs have also risen sharply. With or without Papakaliatis in the occasional role of Pygmalion of the happy girl (as times change), everything will surely be heard in this pre-election period.

PLACE

SYRIZA President Alexis Tsipras will visit Berlin today. Tonight he will meet officials of the political formation to which SYRIZA (Die Linke) psychologically belongs, and tomorrow morning Mr Tsipras will meet Social Democratic Chancellor Olaf Solz of the SPD, a party he seeks to identify with electoral influence. The SPD faces the ominous prospect of political liquidation at the top in 2021, swapping places with the Christian Democratic Party, which collapsed after Merkel stepped down as chancellor and activist. Mr. Tsipras’s relationship with Mr. Soltz does not approach the personal warmth that characterized his relationship with Angela Merkel, but SYRIZA needs a pre-election good testimony from outside, and the Germans do not hesitate to provide it.

ATTACK

“The kid began to write his first letters. He wrote EFKA and immediately after that he put a cross. The “kid” is the son of Minister of Labor Kostis Hatsidakis, and he – like other children of politicians – was recruited in a tough parental fight for re-election in the northern sector of 2nd Athens. It’s not that Mr. Hatsidakis has trouble getting re-elected. However, the use of minors for sacred electoral purposes is not a new phenomenon and is not limited to factional, party, or ideological lines. Children as a tool to evoke sympathy through touching stories, or as living decor for painstakingly sloppy Instagram moments and sweet sympathies.
