I thought everything the Guardian said was gospel GIG is always quoting the Guardian.

How about you and GIG sort that one out between you because I couldn't care less!

If the Guardian claimed they tried to hack into their National Reserves, then maybe they should send that stupid journalist back to school in order to teach him how to check and verify his information.

Its in several newspapers - But I am sure your right. The press is full of crap and hype most times.

The International Press just keep recycling and copying articles.

Most of them don't check the facts. They just rip the stories from Associated Press, or Reuters.

Most articles are just total crap!

Another thing they fail to report is the fact that the Greek Government was unable to conduct business within the Ministry of Finance because of the presence of EZ technocrats this necessitating them to hack their computers in order to maintain secrecy. If this is true, then Greece is under occupation by an enemy and their actions are criminal. Methinks we have not heard the last of this. If Tsipras and Varoufakis are charged, then I will prepare the popcorn as they reveal all the dirt and blackmail from the Troika.

Well said that man!!!!! Do you see a familiar pattern here?

Do you remember a guy call Mosadeque who was PM of Iran way back in the 50's? He put his country and people first when dealing with the 'UK/US Oil Interests' and what he did was not to their liking so they did what they always do .... decided on regime change and set him up as the bad guy. He was accused (just like Varoufakis) of some crimes, tried and sentenced to life imprisonment. He actually served it under house arrest so he was luckier than some also accused ..... they were executed. Then the US got their regime change and the Iranian people got the Shah for 28 years! And who set it all up? The CIA and MI6 and, although they denied it at the time, it all came out about 30 years ago, very low key admissions which was found hidden in most publications and of course hen there was no internet but the US and UK were the perpetrators and admitted it.

I think that Varoufakis was given the elbow by the TROIKA because he knows too much about economics and the banking system (FRAUD?) and that Tsipras was TOLD he was going .... or else! Varoufakis was pushed!

As for press reports; I once had a forum member link to a string of articles to make the point that he was right. He didn't check the articles and when I did they were all exactly the same wording ..... word for word ..... and the source of the information ..... Reuters. So you are right about the press as well ..... quote one and you quote them all!

The idea to create a clearing system for tax credits sounds good, I will grant Baroufakis that much.

One of the liquidity problems the economy now faces are tax and VAT returns. By creating a clearing system through which anyone with a tax number, ie everyone economically active, could settle taxes due from the government and even pay their taxes via inputs from their regular bank accounts was a sound idea. This had the potential to solve lots of liquidity problems.

The means conceived to achieve this end were the problem. And now Barouf faces all those who envied his ease in front of the camera, there is a lot personal animosity involved here, make no mistake about that.

Add the internal Syriz problems to deal with along with Barouf and the "truth committees" set up by another problematic Syriza personality, the Parliament Speaker madame Constantopoulou, remember all this is going on with the Troika in town.

Where are those Hare Krishna guys when you need them!
