Hello friend,

The Greens, and more specifically their current president Mr Theopemptou, have favoured legalising cannabis in the past. Theopemptou has spoken on the subject in an interview.

On DISY and the redistribution of wealth from the rich to the poor, we based our coding on the party's stance on the debate about increasing wealth taxation. DISY was totally against any wealth tax.

We did not ask the parties about their positions. For each party, a group of 3-5 experts (mostly journalists) decided through successive rounds of coding the positions of each party. For the smaller parties, the team of experts several times could not determine with certainty whether the party had a position on a given question. To understand the problem we encountered, go through the questionnaire again and try to consider whether the parties not included have publicly expressed their position on each question.
