Kerameos for a motion of censure: Political despair of SYRIZA
“All the polls show you are falling, your voters are flirting, you risk being in a third party”
The full response to the objections raised by SYRIZA
in order to support the motion of censure filed against the Government, the Minister of Education and Religions attempted during her speech before the Plenary Session of the Parliament. Niki Kerameos.
The Minister attributed this move of the Official Opposition to “Political despair”, noting that “this is the first time that the motion of censure has been tabled, not because the Government has a problem with society and citizens, but because the Official Opposition has a problem with society and citizens.”
“All the polls show you are falling, your voters are flirting with you, you risk being in a third party. In political despair, you try to reverse reality. You are falsifying the truth, you are destroying, you are contradicting “, Niki Kerameos pointed out.
The Minister used as a typical example, in order to demonstrate the regressions of SYRIZA, the distance education. “Ten days ago, you said that the reason we open schools is because we do not have the possibility of distance learning. Now that e-learning is universally implemented, and so you have been refuted in practice, tell us that we have implemented e-learning.
“The absurdity in all its glory”, said Mrs. Kerameos and added: “It bothers you that during the recent bad weather, in other areas of the schools the teaching could not take place, the educational process worked, with the massive participation of the whole educational community and with a smooth and fast transition from life to distance education.. In Friday lessons, for example, we had 98.4% application of distance learning in closed classes. And we warmly thank the educational community as a whole for its consistency and adaptability. “
Following the collectively negative attitude of SYRIZA in all the reforms that took place in the last 2.5 years in the field of Education, Niki Kerameos stressed: “So NOT at all. We open schools, you want them closed. We close them, you want them open. But NOT in all other areas of the educational work of the last 2.5 years “.
