«Patients and, ultimately, society are left to fend for themselves,» she said in an interview with Real News, the secretary of the SYRIZA Parliamentary Group, Olga Gerovasili, and adds that «The government is dismantling the welfare state and undermining individual and social rights.». He also asks: «Based on what information is Mr. Mitsotakis making these decisions and turning the country into an accordion? Does the minister make recommendations to the scientists, or do the scientists make recommendations to the minister?».
Ms. Gerovasili refers to the behavior of government officials and the prime minister himself: «Behaviors like those of Mr. Mitsotakis’s vice president, who sarcastically asks for the keys to businesses, only provoke outrage. When you fail to step up inspections and present a vaccination plan that exists only in your imagination to divert attention from the disaster, no one takes you seriously.”. What kind of society can endure being destroyed behind its back on the one hand, and on the other, having you pose for photos—first on Mount Parnitha, or in Terkenli with the tsoureki, playing tennis on the courts, and now in Ikaria, basking in the “adoration” of your “followers”?.
Referring to the healthcare system, she says that «It has become a disease system», and adds that «those who will keep the ESY On the front lines are the healthcare workers, with no backup, exhausted, and having paid a heavy toll in lives due to the very pandemic. ’. And when he talks about these things, he's persecuted!».
Regarding the Prime Minister's visit to Ikaria, He states: «You can’t have a society in lockdown and act as if nothing is wrong. In the midst of this situation, you can’t go to Ikaria supposedly to oversee the vaccination campaign and to inaugurate a SYRIZA project, and to find yourself having lunch with some forty or so people from Nomata! Because you’re the one whose decisions lead to people being arrested for violating public health measures and fines pouring down like rain, even for frail 80-year-old women! »Doesn't Mr. Mitsotakis realize that he's being provocative?".
Responding to a question about whether SYRIZA’s criticism of the stance taken by the media, argues: «The guidelines posted on ERT–YENED regarding topics that should not be covered in news broadcasts are excessive.". It is an exaggeration for the media to inadvertently publish even the instructions they receive from the Maximos Mansion. The millions in public funds being spent on efforts to corrupt the media are excessive. Phenomena such as the coordinated effort to distort his statements in a Goebbels-like manner Alexis Tsipras or the police harassment of members of parliament to cover up the “coronavirus outbreak” on Ikaria and the Privatization of Education, »pose a real threat to the functioning of democracy." Regarding Ms. Kerameos, She stated that «the opposition, the academic community, police unions, and prominent New Democracy officials are all united in their opposition.».
For the dynamic of progressive governance SYRIZA with KINAL, KKE and Day 25, states: «There are issues that unite the broad democratic majority of our society… In the latest bill on higher education proposed by the Ministry of Citizen Protection, it was clear that a broad social majority shares these same concerns. As the main political force of the progressive camp, we have a responsibility to complete our organizational and operational transformation so that we can give voice to this majority. It is the duty of the ruling left to produce a comprehensive policy platform, which will create the conditions for forging a new social contract to finally give citizens a sense of hope. We owe this especially to young people who are experiencing today’s neoliberal »Mr. Mitsotakis's dead-end dystopia.".
