Politics
In Two Years, from Brussels
The Greek nationalist party Golden Dawn became a subject of another scandal when one of its members shouted Heil Hitler! in Greek Parliament. Nevertheless, its popularity is growing and the last poll showed 11,5% support. Kind of difficult to understand it since the Greek nation suffered from one of the hardest Nazi occupations in non-Soviet Europe; but democracy brings also surprises like this.
Economy

The financial crisis has been with us for six years and counting. The symptoms don’t change - growing unemployment, low or even stifled economic growth, the same ineffective measures adopted by governments and central banks.
