Greek elections could sweep anti-austerity Syriza party to power

2015-01-23 7

Greeks are set to turn out for general elections this coming Sunday. Opinion polls currently put the Syriza party ahead and in a good position to carry the vote. A coalition of far-left wing groups, Syriza owes its popularity to wide-ranging dissatisfaction among many ordinary Greeks over the traditional parties' austerity measures and plummeting levels of income per household. Our reporters have been to Greece ahead of these key elections.
