Volatile EU boils over: Greece set to unveil shock constitutional referendum
DEBT-HIT Greece is planning a shock referendum, with critics arguing it is akin to “dissolving the Constitution”. Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras aims to send Greeks to the polls to vote on whether the electoral system should be changed.

With his approval ratings plummeting, critics argue the vote is a cynical attempt to secure a victory over the rival New Democracy party. New Democracy may even boycott the referendum if it takes place and encourage citizens not to vote - a bold move which would add another layer of chaos to a country still recovering from tough European Union bailout measures.

Last week Germany’s finance minister demanded Greece push through drastic reforms in the country's public services in order to achieve their bailout payments..

I thought they voted over 60% to get out of the EUSSR in 2015? Yet the EU commissars put a gun to Tsipras' head behind closed doors.

Greece needs to tell Germany, France and the Netherlands to go to hell and even further!

The EU has brought misery upon all of Europe, not just Greece.

Greece is going to become a Turkish province really soon!

Violation of Greek airspace by six Turkish fighter jets on the very day the country was mourning the tragic death of four army officers who lost their lives when their helicopter crashed in the area of Sarantaporos.
Kammenos pointed to the “quality” of the Turkish side when it won’t even respect the deaths of Greek army officers.

Greek minister of defense, Kammenos, is quite embarrassing. Turkish military respects only one thing: power!

He totally ignored the result of the last referendum and has bent over to the troika to accept whatever they demand, regardless of the cost to the Greek people. And still people vote for him. Is this a new variation of Stockholm Syndrome, Netherland=France-Germany-Greece Syndrome?

Here's what you do. Go back to the drachma and peg it to the US dollar. That way Greeks don't get smashed in a massive currency devaluation and Germany-France-Holland get to go to hell in a hand basket made of euros.

Can this be done? I only mention it because I heard it mentioned a few years back when those commissars had Greece in the ropes.

Don't bother.

The majority of my countrymen are mentally challenged.

As a solution for Tsipras fucking us over and flip-flopping on about everything he said pre-elections and selling out the nation,

they are going to vote for ND (new democracy) again most likely. One of the parties which is responsible for creating the huge debt and hiding it, leading to the sell-out. PASOK being the other.
Understanding that voting in a completely corrupted system cannot solve anything is beyond the grasp of most.


Basically, they are just rotating the parties which are going to fuck us next, similar to the US.

There is nothing official other than some published intentions from SYRIZA. Generally, SYRIZA is trying to save themselves because with the current system they are already finished. With a simple proportional system there wouldn't be no strong political party in the Greek parliament, something that SYRIZA would try to use for their own benefit.

You should come live here then, if our government hands out free money and stuff.

The reality is however, if you have no income here, you are going to starve.

Your government is handing out more free money to the jobless than a simple worker makes here in a month, which is why refugees here are always trying to get north.

You have been brainwashed by the chosenite media and are repeating their bullshit like a parrot.
