No they want to be shafted with worthless drachma s. And lots of them.
This is not about the germans or anyone shafting the Greeks, this is the greeks shafting themselves, wanting free money and the nice things it buys without earning it.Left is never right but I always am.0 -
The markets are going to be lively tomorrow morning :eek:

Not seen any coverage of whether the so far reporting electoral areas are boradly similar or more city/rural. Wonder if any late swing is possible? Any of our Greek friends here know?

61.25% say no (so far)
Doesn't seem to be a single part of Greece that voted for a yes majority?
The 2 opinion polls that were referenced on the BBC yesterday both had the outcome at 60-70% yes.
I have to say - well done for the Greek people for standing their ground. They have faced some pretty big threats by the EU. The biggest yesterday warning of "armegeddon", including no power, lack of food and no medical supplies.0 -
Why are we taking any notice of our opinion polls when they got the result of our own election so wrong?(AKA HRH_MUngo)

Imagine someone holding forth on biology whose only knowledge of the subject is the Book of British Birds, and you have a rough idea of what it feels like to read Richard Dawkins on theology: Terry Eagleton0 -

Just need to know now what they've voted against.
It's very interesting but delighted to be watching this from a distance.0
