To get out of politics and poll government after a prolonged difficult period. Turning point for government restart was the reshuffle And now they have initiatives in a series of fields related to citizens. The goal of planning over the years is for the government to regain the political initiative and not to be “dragged” by developments.
Already, the operation of the government center has been virtually amended. The composition of ‘brown»Limited, and every two weeks will take place the so -called ‘meeting’cycle“, In order to make a medium -term planning for the priorities of the government.
The vice president has made his presence felt at the government center Kostis Hatzidakiswho coordinates the government work together Akiwhile in the week that passed a key role, the Deputy Minister was played by the Prime Minister. George Mylonakis with the Triantopoulos case and the government spokesman Paul Marinakis It gave the tone in an effort to communicate “demarage”.
Note, the Kyriakos Mitsotakis He continues his contacts with ministries. Shortly after 10 he passed the door of the interior ministry where he will have a meeting with his leadership leadership domestic and Governancewhile Wednesday morning will be found in Ministry of Immigration and Asylum.
Wage increase
The week that begins will be linked to the announcement of the new minimum wage to cabinet Wednesday afternoon (scheduled for Thursday morning, but Mr Mitsotakis may go to Paris for an informal Ukraine session). The relevant suggestion for 500,000 employees will be made by Labor Minister Niki Kerameos, with his information protothema.gr to report that the increase It has been locked between 870 and 880 euros from 830 today. The government, after all, has been committed to raising the minimum wage to 950 euros in 2027 and this increase seems reasonable to achieve the target over two years.
The new minimum It will apply from April 1st and, of course, directly affects the public sector, as from April 1, 2025, the import salary of civil servants will be aligned with the minimum wage of the private sector. Increasing the minimum wage also affects a number of social benefits (eg child allowance, maternity, etc.), and it is recalled that Mr Mitsotakis was committed to 2023 for average salary of 1,500 euros. It should be noted, competent sources report that the increase in minimum wage by 28% in recent years has also affected the course of the average salary, which also increased by 28%.
Direct tax cuts
Of course, in his interlocutors, Mr Mitsotakis appears to be concerned about whether the targeting of 2023 responds to today’s data, due to the acute housing crisis. In any case, in TIF In September, Mr. Mitsotakis is expected to announce an important package reductionswith the aim of boosting the available income and employees of the so -called middle class, from 10,000 to 40,000 euros. The final announcements will “lock” according to the course of revenue and revenue from tax evasion.
Reflection, not panic
Political initiatives, of course, are not taken in a neutral political environment. Two surveys of the last few days, this of Alco for Alpha and she of Metron Analysis for Mega They have shown they are loud “bells” and even have similar findings to those recorded by the rolling measurements that the Maximus Palace is also taking.
Indicatively, in her research Metron Analysis 73% responded that they had a negative opinion on the government, positive 22% and 5% reported “neither good nor bad”. In the same survey, 73% responded that they have a negative evaluation for Prime Minister Mitsotakis, while 75% negatively evaluate the Nikos Androulakiswith the president of PASOK to fall in third place in the suitability index for prime minister, under the Zoe Konstantopoulou. In the corresponding survey of Alcothe degree of satisfaction of citizens with Mr Mitsotakis is limited to 23%, while most surveys now appear as a majority demand for early elections.
The government staff are concerned, but they are not panicked, identifying in the samples of recent days a “halt” and partial correction of ND rates in relation to the reform. They estimate that there is time for “rebuilding forces”, no matter how much the goal of self -reliance in the elections is extremely difficult.
Mr Mitsotakis’ main reflection lies in the rise of ‘Anti -systemicity’, with a look at her echo Sauce by Mrs. Constantopoulou. “A rise of anti -systemic parties and a liquidation of the political scene will not do good to anyone,” Mr Mitsotakis tells his interlocutors, incorporating the “small” image of Greece in the “big picture” of the world’s geopolitical rearrangements.
