Second Cabinet of Alexis Tsipras

Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras's talk of consensus in his opening speech during the parliamentary debate on the constitutional review quickly fell by the wayside on Wednesday, giving way to polarizing rhetoric and acrimonious exchanges.

Greek parliament on Thursday voted to speed up a process to increase the minimum wage next year - a pledge heralded by Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras in late August.

An MP who was expelled from the New Democracy parliamentary group last October has said she will explore policy similarities with the Independent Greeks party.

Katerina Papakosta was removed from the main opposition party's parliamentary group for straying from the party line. She subsequently set up the New Greek Momentum party.

New Democracy leader Kyriakos Mitsotakis says his party is ready to win elections whenever they take place and that this summer will be the last for the current government.

In a statement on Tuesday, the office of Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras indicated that the government would want to secure a broad consensus in Parliament following demands by junior coalition partner Panos Kammenos for an enhanced majority of 180 seats in the 300-seat House.

Donning a red tie, Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras on Friday hailed the Eurogroup debt deal clinched on Thursday as "historic," insisting that Greece is finally turning a page after eight years of bailouts.

New Democracy leader Kyriakos Mitsotakis said on Friday his party will table  a proposal for a parliamentary debate on the economy, noting that the debt deal achieved by the government at the Eurogroup is worse than what the country was expecting to get.

After more than two days of vehement debate in Parliament, the government on Saturday survived a no-confidence vote brought against it by the main opposition New Democracy party, but with one less MP.

A Supreme Court prosecutor ordered on Friday an investigation into statements made by the now-former Golden Dawn MP Constantinos Barbarousis for possible treason charges, after he urged the army to arrest Greece's prime minister, president and government coalition partner for what he viewed as a "treasonous" agreement with the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (FYROM) over its name.

In the wake of the name deal with the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (FYROM) announced by Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras on Tuesday, the government and opposition New Democracy have been set on a collision course which is expected to culminate in Parliament in coming days.
