ND’s new leader Kyriakos Mitsotakis of the well-known politician family is considered to be “the most appropriate for Prime Minister” by 28.2% of the respondents, while PM Alexis Tsipras gathers 25.2%. (poll source)
Immediately after ND elected its new leader beginning of January, the conservative party started to gain support towards SYRIZA. Kyriakos Mitsotakis is a neo-liberal supporter who zealously implemented the Bailout terms & conditions, while he was Minister in Samaras government.
So, what do Greeks want? What’s their dilemma? Left-wing vs Neo-liberal Bailout implementation?
I will tell you about in a post to be written at a later point.
To find out what Greeks want they must ask them but they never do so, as indicated by “undecided 15%” instead of “non-voters 45%”
