Συζητώντας με την Πάολα Ρεβενιώτη στην “Κατάσταση Πολιορκίας” του ΜέΡΑ-TV

, 25/05/2020

Λίγες φορές έχω χαρεί συζήτηση όσο το περασμένο Σάββατο με την Πάολα Ρεβενιώτη, της οποίας η έντιμη, αγωνιστική, αντι-καταθλιπτική δράση μας δίνει δύναμη . Η εικόνα της Αθήνας των περασμένων δεκαετιών που μοιράστηκε μαζί μας ήταν ένα ακόμα “μπόνους”. Αν δεν την είδατε, δείτε την – δεν θα το μετανιώσετε.

, 06/05/2020

Το φάντασμα του 5ου Μνημονίου πλανάται πάνω από τη χώρα, φέρνοντας μειώσεις μισθών και συντάξεων, περαιτέρω φτωχοποίηση των ήδη φτωχών, και εξανδραποδισμό των μικρομεσαίων. Ταυτόχρονα, παραδίδει στην ολιγαρχία-χωρίς-σύνορα ό,τι απέμεινε από τον δημόσιο και ιδιωτικό πλούτο της χώρας (αρπακτικά ταμεία, αρπακτικές εξορυκτικές εταιρείες, αρπακτική διαπλοκή).
