EDITORIAL

A gutter of irresponsibility The European Union took Greece to the European Court of Justice yesterday for failing to install adequate sewage systems for collecting wastewater and facilities for the biological treatment of water in various towns and cities across the country. But that is not the only problem. Being taken to the European tribunal is no longer a surprise to Greeks, while no one seems to be bothered about the hefty fines imposed by the European authorities.

COMMENTARY

Debate from scratch The sudden heat wave has forced students to suspend their series of sit-ins, but if the past is any guide, the protests will resume once summer's over. The government must brace itself for a fresh wave of protests in September and bear in mind that the sensitive education sector leaves no room for stealth strategies or public politicking. When it comes to expressing their insecurity over career prospects, youths tend to overstep the mark.
