Groaning into the causes of New Democracy the result of the roll call vote for the request to remove it parliamentary immunity of Pavlou Polaki.
According to the vote count 80 MPs from KO ND, KINAL and Elliniki Lysis voted in favor of abolition, while 84 as a result, the former Deputy Minister of Health retains his immunity, which is solely due to the absence of 88 members of the ruling party.
Now, the prevailing question is whether the abstention of the deputies is due to a coordinated movement or was simply caused by poor planning and the loose disposition of some deputies regarding the performance of their parliamentary functions.
It is indicative that almost all the ministers were absent from the vote (only Ch. Theocharis and M. Konsolas were present) but also several of the newly elected deputies who should be more consistent with their parliamentary obligations.
AnywayAccording to the information, all members of the parliamentary group received on Wednesday afternoon and Thursday morning two text messages from the secretary of the Central Committee, Stavros Kalafatis, who informed them about the day and time of the roll call vote..
On the other hand, the executives smoked with gunpowder, trying to justify their absence, affirm that the party should have reported in more detail about the seriousness of the encounter. They add that before the vote P. Polakis spoke for almost 40 minutes and explain that the party leaders could activate at least the ministers who are within walking distance of a Parliament building to speed up the vote.
It should be noted that the Palacio de los Máximo has permanent envoys in parliament to coordinate the deputies, but it is unknown if they adequately fulfilled their functions in this case.
It also makes sense that a small number of MEPs, but capable of changing the final result, were in parliament at noon on Thursday but for some unknown reason did not enter the plenary to vote.
Adonis Georgiadis: Sorry for the inaction
However, due to the parliamentary failure shown by the majority, several deputies rushed to take a public position.
The Minister of Public Works, Adonis Georgiadis, responding to a tweet from journalist Giannis Kourtakis, wrote: “Today’s Giannis was a failure in which there are no excuses. I publicly apologize for the fact that due to my inaction, a citizen’s right to treat his abuser equally in court has been violated. It will not happen again”
In another extension, MP Konstantinos Bogdanos stated: “For not voting for the lifting of Polaki’s immunity by the New Democracy KO there is no excuse. There are responsibilities that must be assigned.”
On the other hand, SYRIZA parliamentary sources commenting on the post by Ad. Georgiadis Report: ¨ND’s parliamentary broadcast is not enough with more than half of its deputies “voting” against the party line to lift the immunity of Pavlos Polakis, now Minister of Government, Ad. Georgiadis apologizes to the editor because the ruling party MPs did not sing as the editor requested. By the way, in their family, let them find them themselves ”.
It should be noted that the request for the waiver of Mr. Polakis’s parliamentary immunity was referred to Parliament following a complaint from journalist Giannis Kourtakis for defamation.
It is recalled that Giannis Kourtakis had filed a lawsuit against the former deputy minister, as Pavlos Polakis had written in a post that “despite the mud, despite the money thrown away by Kourtakis and various supermarkets in the area (ss Chania) to get muddy, no you did. Fifteen thousand four hundred votes, fifteen thousand nails for you … »
In this case, Mr. Polakis tried to connect the journalist and editor of Parapolitikon with the elections and his candidacy in Chania, stating in summary that Mr. Kourtakis bribed some people and spread false news to avoid his reelection in Parliament.
