Group Identity

For almost a year, we've been living a pandemic management which disproportionately harms the lower classes and the workers. At the same time, a web of interests including politicians, developers and money laundering resurfaces, revealing a corruption deeply rooted in the Greek Cypriot political system, which is trying to hide itself behind oppressive and separatist policies.

Who are we? We are workers, unemployed, students, artists, athletes and sports fans.

WE DEMAND:

  1. Investments for public health and education, not the police and military equipment.
  2. Protecting the vulnerable groups instead of authoritarian measures against the whole population.
  3. Immediate support of workers and the unemployed, locals, migrants, asylum seekers who are affected by the pandemic.
  4. An end to the war against culture and amateur sports.
  5. An end to the ban of demonstrations.
