ANTI-AUSTERITY PARTY IS GREEK FRONT-RUNNER
GREECE’S radical left party, led by Alexis Tsipras (pictured), last night emerged as the front-runner in the race to win next month’s elections. Syriza, which opposes Greece’s austerity measures, now has 30 per cent of the vote, outpacing conservative rival New Democracy by 26 per cent, according to the Public Issue polling company. Greece faces a second round of elections on 17 June, after an inconclusive vote earlier this month left the country without a stable government.
