ND criticises government

Main opposition New Democracy (ND) severely criticized the government on Monday, during a regular briefing by its press spokesman Yiannis Michelakis. 
 
The ND press officer criticized deputy finance minister Filippos Sahinidis' recent invitation to the political parties to submit their proposals on the economy, and in particular the latter's statement that the parties do not have the correct figures at their disposal, and countered: "The figures that the parties have are the figures that have been officially released". 
 
Michelakis also reiterated that ND has already submitted "full and very specific" proposals. 
 
"PASOK cannot say that there are no proposals," he said, and charged that the prime minister is following a "policy of asphyxiation that is destroying the country's social fabric".
