The second “yes” vote television spot takes aim directly at Greek PM Alexis Tsipras, under the slogan “This time he’s not going to fool us!”.
The political spot will be aired on several television stations up until the day before the hastily called referendum, called by Tsipras himself and approved by a majority of Parliament MPs — from his ruling SYRIZA party, his coalition partner, the rightist-populist AN.EL party and even Greece’s ultra-nationalists, the infamous Golden Dawn party.
It’s in Greek, of course, but here’s the English translation, brought to you by Proto Thema:
He (Tsipras) told us:
“No referendum. No dilemma”.
In his (nationally televised) address, he told us:
“It’s truly unacceptable for banks to close”.
He’s lying
Then the images shows a close-up of the ministerial decision published in the Government Gazette that showns the signature “Alexios Tsipras”
Then, he told us
“Citizens’ bank deposits will not be lost”
“I personally assume the responsibility”
In other words if deposits are subject to a ‘haircut’, he’ll personally reimburse us???
Finally, he said
“No doesn’t mean a rift/clash with Europe”
This time he’s not going to fool us
The question this Sunday is clear
Do we want to remain in the euro (zone)
No or Yes?
Yes to Greece
Yes to the euro
