Finally, does the four-day work proposal<\/b> made yesterday by the leader of the official opposition, Nikos Androulakis, <\/b>remind others of the so-called left trees<\/b> of the past, or just me? <\/p>\n
This is because, behind the attractive titles and palatable proclamations, the essentials are missing: a serious, politically and economically sound proposal<\/b>. In the years of New Democracy government,<\/b> not a single integrated plan<\/b> for the labour regime, which is substantially linked to productivity, competitiveness and – ultimately – to the development <\/b>of the economy<\/b>, has been documented by the opposition<\/b>. <\/p>\n
Instead, we see familiar “balloons<\/b>” of political rhetoric and proposals that are more reminiscent of communication exercises<\/b> than of workable policies. With the national debt being repaid ahead of schedule, and with the economic leaps recorded under Kyriakos Mitsotakis<\/b>, the comparison becomes inevitable. <\/p>\n
And therein lies the tipping point for the voter<\/b> who in a year or so will get in front of the ballot<\/b>, taking into account – I hope – measurable results and specific policies. <\/p>\n
At the ballot box, the dilemma<\/b> ceases to be theoretical and becomes almost schematic: a choice between informed strategy and sketchy ideas<\/b> – in simple terms, like being asked to choose between trusting people with a kindergarten diploma<\/b> or a PhD<\/b>. <\/p>\n
I think we’re all still tired<\/b> from the crazy dance we threw when the dulcimers<\/b> were pounding and the markets<\/b> were dancing with us at the Constitution, so let’s rest another four years in safe hands<\/b>. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
