I hate to be pessimistic, but if the reforms include raising the age to get a pension or cutting back on the generosity of the Welfare State, there will be riots and this party will be out.

Greek commies riots at the drop of a hat. Doesn’t matter what it is about.
Still among my favorite places to vacation.

The only thing they CAN do, which would not outrage their base, would be to very visibly stop illegal immigration and expel the migrants.
But that would incur sanctions from the EU bureaucrats.
Are they willing to tell the EU to shove it?
