“We hope that the Prime Minister will not prevent the liquidation of his Parliamentary Group, at least of those who reproduced lies and slander about the phone-hacking scandal, the railway crime, the collusion of government members with independent authorities, the leaking of voters’ personal data”, reports SYRIZA, commenting on Salma’s exclusion from the ND.
The official opposition party seizes the opportunity after the government representative’s statement that “deputy Marios Salmas was removed from New Democracy for having reproduced a series of slanders in the media”.
And the SYRIZA statement concludes: “If, however, he fails to do so and the allegation of slander is simply a pretext, then all citizens will conclude that the Prime Minister’s sensitivity only begins and ends when criticism of public tenders and distribution reaches billions of dollars among the powerful few.”
