The reasonable question, “If you can’t run your own party, how can you run the country?” was posed by Christina Alexopoulou to Ioannis Vardakastanis of PASOK.
Commenting on Action24, the developments within PASOK, with the party’s poll numbers plummeting and potential leadership candidates waiting in the wings, the MP from New Democracy said characteristically: “A few houses from a poor village have turned into two villages full of villagers. They want to convince the Greek people that they have the solution for the future, when in fact they don’t even have a solution for their own party.”
Addressing Ioannis Vardakastanis, secretary of PASOK’s Central Political Committee, she commented on the party’s narrative that “you can govern with Androulakis as prime minister,” noting that “he has no way of getting his own house in order.” “You can’t even govern your own party—how are you going to govern the country? This is sad for PASOK,” Christina Alexopoulou said pointedly.
