‘War’, the only way out for Alexis Tsipras

By Niki Zorba

Alexis Tsipras took out of the drawer the parliamentary “weapon” of the motion of censure against the government. It was only a matter of time before he made the election request to do so, although the initial plans put a relevant initiative for later. Towards the spring, when he would be in a phase of complete reorganization in theory, through the holding of his conference.

The bad weather “Elpida” and what was left over from Monday afternoon, fully exposing, once again, the state mechanism, accelerated the developments. The president of SYRIZA decided to submit the motion of no confidence, uniting in a way “the whole of SYRIZA”. Regardless of “trends” and internal party groups, no one disagrees with his initiative.

Everyone in the main opposition party considers that the developments of the last week were a golden opportunity for the government to be crushed in parliament.

Frontal

The rationale is that the collapse of the state apparatus due to “hope”, is another link in the overall narrative of SYRIZA about a failed government, “dangerous that must leave as soon as possible” after passing below the bar of expectations, in all critical fronts: pandemic, precision, everyday.

This is the fan of the accusations made by SYRIZA MPs on the way to the three-day debate on the motion of censure that is expected to culminate tomorrow (Sunday) with the gladiators Kyriakos Mitsotakis and Alexis Tsipras, shortly before the vote.

They do not hide in Koumoundourou that the goal is “war” and a frontal conflict with the government in all political, economic and social matters. The pandemic may be at the peak of the hot episodes, but the reason for this in the Syriza ecosystem is: You are not able to cope with any critical challenge.

From the “quiver” of Alexis Tsipras, they confess that there will be nothing missing that can be used as “ammunition”: From the performance of the government in the pandemic, the accuracy and the management of everyday life (fires, snow, etc.) until … Fourthiotis talks with the Minister of State George Gerapetritis.

They assure that there will be a submission of counter-proposals but no one denies that the climate will be of extreme polarization and political “kicking”.

The aim is to incite the anger of the citizens from the fresh memories of the bad weather and to show the government in a state of exile.

Obviously, they do not believe that there is a chance that they will throw it or see riots in the government deputies. Such political voluntarism would be extreme even for the most optimistic in the main opposition party who, from time to time, like to see intra-government cracks, magnifying them, in defiance of reality.

However, they consider that it is an objective issue for government MPs to support the government’s actions at this juncture and they do not share any estimates that in a really difficult phase for the government, they facilitate it to mobilize and “advertise its work so far, of these 2, “5 years old in really adverse conditions, I have a pandemic”.

Opposition

In Koumoundourou, they are undoubtedly investing in the pounding that the government will suffer in the Parliament from the sympathy of the opposition without being bent by the different ideological starting points of the parties of the minor opposition. As long as the prime minister will be in the middle of crossfire.

KINAL was pleased with the proposal for a vote against the government, but the goal is strategically different: taking advantage of the absence of Nikos Androulakis, for the president of SYRIZA to appear as the undisputed leader of the other pole. The center-left “apartment building”.

The “new player in the political scene”, as SYRIZA president Nikos Androulakis has described himself, is causing embarrassment to SYRIZA, as it has been more than a month since his election and the polls show a “leap” in the performance of KINAL / PASOK.

No matter how much they challenge them in SYRIZA (and especially during the referendum), the election of Androulakis has already produced political results for Koumoundourou: Alexis Tsipras imposes “sudden” changes in his party on the way to the March congress.

“Dot” in SYRIZA’s internal party

The motion of censure unquestionably saves Alexis Tsipras from difficult discussions within his party. The internal party minority, which feels dissatisfied with the decisions for election of president and Central Committee of SYRIZA by the party members, did not manage to regroup from the surprise reserved for it by the president and falls directly into the “battle” against N.D. and Kyriakos Mitsotakis, for three days and so on, at the parliamentary level.

There is no time and space for whining inside. Hence, they immediately downloaded the “pencils” and turned off the “microphones”, disagreeing with the changes promoted by Alexis Tsipras. The example of Panos Skourletis, a parliamentary representative of SYRIZA but also a leading member of the “umbrella”, who a few hours after his article characterizing Mr. Tsipras’s changes was “superficially” democratic, was thrown into the battle against the government. .

In the internal party, however, he enters the “colon”, as he says characteristically, a member of the umbrella in “K”. As the developments are not expected to be such as to dictate a climate of “aggregation” even necessarily (they do not consider SYRIZA that the prevailing scenario is the early ballots in the spring), the “appointment” of internal party clarifications is renewed for later.
