Independent Greeks are not the New Dawn fascists, but they are conservatives who firmly oppose the EU, the Greek equivalent of the "Tea Party".

They are said to be against immigration and multiculturalism and to support religious education of children.

I had been anticipating this development based on last minute election polls and it appears to be coming to pass.

They are going to try to spend their way out of debt.

I wish them luck.

makes sense to me. if the “leftist” sirza is against the communist EUSSR, well they don’t sound very leftist to me; they actually sound conservative.

and if the greeks have the equivalent of the tea party there or UKIP in britain, it’d be completely rational for it to make immediate common cause with any foe of the EUSSR or the leftist republocrat party here.

it sounds like the new coalition in Greece simply wants to bring the underground greek free economy back into the sunlight under the banner of free enterprise. that’s fine with me. i wish we had a US independent conservative party here (5% would be amazing to start) doing the same thing for our underwater economy.

So I guess you’re saying it’s a coalition of anti-establishment populist parties coming together?

So will this “more for nothing” coalition force Merkel’s hand? Will the EU start to leave them to their own misery?
