Before the plenary on the second day of the debate on the state budget, the "Cyprus and its people first" MPs, Ioannou says
Cyprus first for us and above all its people and a strong ELAM in the elections is the best message to those in power to implement policies centred on our fellow citizens, ELAM MP Sotiris Ioannou said during the during his speech today at the debate on the 2023 budget
[/P]Ioannou said, among other things, that as ELAM they have submitted several proposals and discussed many other MPs. He questioned whether it is an exaggeration that thousands of households live below the poverty line and cannot meet their financial obligations, noting that from the beginning of the year until June 2022, AHK cut electricity to 5200 homes, including vulnerable groups of the population. At the same time, he added that the minimum wage is not enough for either electricity or rent. "Is it an exaggeration that the loan management companies are acting as a state within our society? They threaten borrowers with unacceptable conditions and refuse to discuss, they abuse the power given to them by DISY and DIKO in Parliament," Ioannou said.
The ELAM MP spoke about the immigration issue and said that the biggest racism that exists is against the Greeks of Cyprus, adding that "in recent years we have become second and third class citizens." He added that if you talk today about the liberation of Cyprus, you are a fascist, but if you talk about Palestine, you are a progressive. He added that, "if you don't accept illegal immigration and crime, you are a xenophobe, if you don't accept Ankara's carrier to have priority, you are a racist."
