“After all, who is interested in Mr. Schertzos and New Democracy??” a spokesman asks. PASOKDimitris Manzos, in a statement responding to the words of the ND representative, Akis Shertsos in the context of informing political editors.
“With what they say and what they do, they certainly do not interest the vast majority of employees, retirees, small and medium-sized entrepreneurs, freelancers, farmers and young people,” Mr. Manzo And continues:
“These n New Democracy he made sure to load them with the most unfair taxes, indirect taxes, taking from their pockets and putting into the state treasury an additional 5 billion euros with explosive accuracy.
According to his representative PASOK “thus drastically reducing purchasing power and affecting the standard of living of Greek families” and “thus removing necessary resources from the welfare state, discrediting public hospitals and public education.”
He then claims that “New democracy attacks PASOK to protect posteritywho will receive a tax-free fortune of millions of euros and major shareholders with dividends of hundreds of thousands of euros.”
“Let’s not forget that for four years he has been serving the same interests with the direct appropriation of 10 billion euros, causing direct damage to the public interest.
They are really pronounced, and New Democracy is interested in them, as it leaves workers burdened with tax rates that reach and exceed 40%.
It is indicative that even Mr. Mitsotakis’s statement on taxation at a rate of 90% on the excess profits in the retail trade of electricity suppliers has not yet been collected, not by chance, of course,” adds Mr. Mantzos.
And concludes: “As for the current questions from Mr. Shertsoslet’s remind him that the funding for VAT on food and VAT on fuel must come from the extra 5 billion in revenue paid by Greek citizens.
Finally, the continued refusal of New Democracy to restore the EKAS for 350,000 low-pensioners who live even below the poverty line is shameful.
