Possibly worth keeping an eye on the news tomorrow as Greece appears to be coming to the boil nicely.

Via Covering Delta :

I just became aware of this report from Kontra channel here in Greece. According to this report, a tunnel that leads from Lykavitos to the Greek parliament, and from there to the sea port of Piraeus, is being cleaned out by foreign workers in preparation for the possible evacuation of Greek MP’s in the event of a storming of parliament ahead of wednesday’s vote on the new memorandum.

The situation here is getting completely out of control. I really don’t know how much longer the people will be willing to wait this thing out. The mood here in Athens is one of intense disillusionment with a government that seems increasingly detached from its own people.

Time to buy shares in piano wire manufacturers and Greek funeral directors perhaps?

UPDATE

From Athens News, one Greek MP thinking along very similar lines:

Florina MP Giorgos Lianis on Tuesday has tendered his resignation as a member of Pasok’s central committee. Lianis is keeping his parliament seat and will continue to serve as an independent, leaving the ruling Pasok party with 155 MPs.

In his resignation letter addressed to the Speaker of the Parliament and to Prime Minister George Papandreou, Lianis stresses that he does not believe anymore in the government’s economic policy and that “we [the government] have failed and we are forced to hide the truth from the people”.

He goes on to critisise the memorandum and the medium-term fiscal programme.

Commenting on the public anger over the austerity measures on the Alter television channel late last year, Lianis had declared his intention to leave politics in order to be able to safely “walk the streets”.

Not often you see a politician quoted in those terms in the press and it says a lot more about the mood in Greece than any of our own MSM reports let on.
