SYRIZA- ANEL collaboration

[Delenda Carthago]

SYRIZA and far right populist party Anexartitoi Ellines(Indipentend Greeks), of ex ND minister Panos Kammenos announced a collaboration to create a front... "pro Cyprus", whatever that might mean.

Of course this is something that they were preparing for a while and it has a longer potensial, the creation of a "antimnemonioum" capitalist government. They had in the past deposit common law proposals in the Parliament etc.

Meanwhile, on the SYRIZA front...


Q: Would you say you have political allies in Britain?

A: I had the opportunity to meet with two teams from the Labour Party: an official one headed by [Jon] Cruddas, the party's head of policy-making, and another one with four to five Labour MPs. I got the impression that the Labour party today is in soul-searching mode, and the debate around austerity is on, so Greece is for them an interesting case study. Bearing in mind that in previous years they followed neoliberal policies, today Labour are deeply troubled about everything that has happened in Greece and especially by the collapse of PASOK [Labour's social-democratic Greek sister party]. They’re following the situation closely and I dare say they are one of the few parties so close to power in Europe with whom we share a lot of positions and with whom we can be in constant communication.

Q: So SYRIZA can find common ground with Labour?

A: It will depend upon how daring [Ed] Miliband intends to be and especially when it matters most: during the next elections when pressure from the mainstream media and oligarchs in Britain start speaking of the "red dragon" that has come to drive away the City and submerge us in inflation and poverty. Of course this will depend not only on Miliband's endurance but also on the circumstances under which this duel will take place. Because if elections are held in 2015, the two years in between will be apocalyptic as to the effects of neoliberalism in Europe. Britain is already in depression. Nothing is getting better. More and more people in Europe realise that austerity is not a viable prospect. I hope people realise that there is no other way but to radicalise even further.

Thanks for posting this development and entertaining spoofs, I guess. Kammenos has his sights on the Ministry of Defense, and he should be kept out of it by any potential coalition partner.

This is very interesting. Delenda, has there been opposition to this from within the ranks of the SYRIZA?

This is interesting, and potentially distressing. I'm very curious to see what's going to happen with them in the near future.
