Nevertheless, GRReporter’s readers have ruled out - 36% of the Bulgarian audience believes Andreas Vgenopoulos is the biggest last year’s loser. The same opinion share 32% of the English audience and 56% of the Greek readers agree that 20 million euros less and quitting the football club of your heart make you a Loser! Vgenopoulos’ rivals in this category are the politician Dora Bakoyannis, the leader of New Democracy Antonis Samaras and the criminal Alket Rizai.

The daughter of the former Prime Minister of Greece and Honorary President of New Democracy Konstantinos Mitsotakis was disaffiliated from the party having openly declared her support of the Memorandum of financial assistance in the spring of 2010. Only Dora Bakoyannis decided to resist the new blue leader Antonis Samaras and to oppose him in public concerning the opposition policy pursued by him which led to her expulsion from the ranks of New Democracy.

In her case, however, it would be better to say that there are gains for all our losses. Several months later the clever Dora founded a new center-right party Democratic Alliance and shook the power balance of the political life of the Right in the country.

However, this is not the reason to include the blue leader Antonis Samaras in the poll for the biggest 2010 loser. The dramatic defeat of New Democracy in the elections for mayors and city councilors have made him part of it.  

The name of an already legendary criminal Alket Razai entered the poll for the biggest loser in 2010. He succeeded to escape from the Athens prison Korydallos by helicopter twice just like a super-action hero but has fallen in the clutches of justice forever (or at least the authorities hope it). He lost his freedom and the specialized bodies have assured that escape opportunities from the Die Hard type cell are gone for the romantic villain.

We thank you all for voting and invite you to participate in our new poll: Do you agree with the liberalization of the labour market in Greece.
