There are massive issues and I have been the first to acknowledge that it was a failed economy, with terrible corruption. I am not a fan of Syriza by any stretch. I have met its members. I am making the point that it has been in government only since January. How unfair would it have been for us in opposition to say of our Government after four months in power that it was ruining the country, something I have never done? I think Syriza needs that bit of time.
