Significance
Meanwhile, the centre-left Pasok party is celebrating its 50th anniversary this month. However, it is also facing internal turmoil after its incumbent president, Nikos Androulakis, called a leadership contest following a poor performance in June's EU elections.
Impacts
The role of the main opposition to the government may increasingly be filled by private media moguls critical of its policies.
The government will need to deliver substantive progress on pressing issues if it hopes to stem the outflow of support.
Androulakis and Athens Mayor Haris Doukas are frontrunners in the Pasok leadership contest.
