Big SYRIZA Gathering at Syntagma

Tsipras_SyntagmaAlexis Tsipras, leader of the SYRIZA parliamentary group and Leader of the Opposition since June 2012, delivered a public speech at an open political gathering in Syntagma square at the same time the tripartite government  leaders were holding a meeting about the future of ERT.
With “Let’s be done with the government of diversion. Let’s restore democracy,” being the main slogan, Tsipras underlined, “Tonight we are done with the government of destruction. A year of lies, blackmail and brutality, enough, the people have spoken, Syntagma Square sends the message of change. No more destruction, no more shrinking of democracy.”
Tsipras attacked the government by saying, “At this very moment at Maximos Mansion Samaras has called the other two political leaders. In order to decide for the fate of their government and their personal fate. And I find the opportunity, by this tribune, to address the Prime Minister. And to inform him about the thing he seems unable to understand: Mr Samaras, you are done. Whether you agree with each other or not tonight, goodnight to you.  Just leave the left over silverware in its place, because it does not belong to you. It belongs to the Greek people.”
“In this violent act,” Tsipras continued, “in the closure of ERT, in the effort of imposing darkness on people’s lives you are desperately alone, but not completely alone. You isolated and humiliated the country internationally. All Greeks unite their voices against darkness. There is only one ally left to you, Mr Samaras. Golden Dawn. Yes! Only neo-Nazis agree with your abomination.”
