The simplified history that we are all taught, wedded with the necessary myths to wrap up the narrative, is the fertile ground where nationalist populism blossoms.
The state we're in
Who are we trying to kid and for how long will we keep on kidding ourselves, when the snake is already out of its basket and spitting venom?

The waste of police resources is effectively a result of ridiculous prejudices.
The visible results of ill-considered diplomacy
What happens when international contacts take place with the aim of being used as domestic propaganda to support the idea of a new and improved Greece.
Frustrated investment
