Years of neoliberal reforms, corruption and degradation of firefighting equipment and institutions means we now have to endure multiple wildfires every fucking day. It's disgusting what's happening. And you can't blame it on the weather. "But, but, it was really hot, it reached 46 degrees a few days ago" oh yeah? It reached 48C about 40 years ago, and it goes above 40C almost every year in August, It's not a fucking excuse. "But but the wind" there was no fucking wind. Literally nothing. Yesterday it was 2 on the Beaufort scale, idk how much it is today but I'm looking outside and the branches are still. The media is constantly coming up with new dumbass excuses for the failures of the government. Greece doesn't have vast forests where it's very hard to spot a fire if it starts. There's no excuse why this should be happening.
It's absolutely horrible in Athens right now, there's a massive cloud of smoke which has covered everything, and houses are burning right outside the city. Also Euboea has a bunch of fires too, as do some other smaller islands. I don't know why but Euboea burns to the ground like 3 times every fucking year recently, we desperately need guillotines for everyone responsible.

Bad lib shit lol he's also had a bunch of somewhat important members including a parliamentarian quit because they realized it's basically a vanity project disguised as a leftist party.
Also he's (at least on paper, but Mitsotakis probably beats him easily in actuality) like the richest party leader in the country by far thanks to stonks and his wife's financial counseling firm, which is not a great look, and even worse when that first came out he started saying some nonsense about how it is always rich people who start the revolutions or whatever the fuck.
