Greece Faces Insolvency

Business Daily

Available for over a year

The Greek government is facing intense pressure to do a deal quickly on terms that the eurozone will accept, but at home is being told that it cannot renege on its promises to end austerity. We hear from some of the people of Thessaloniki who reflect a general mood of pessimism. Also we get the view from a former IMF Executive Board member on whether Greece will be able to play for more time to pay up. And Lucy Kellaway reveals the secrets you can discover by just lurking in your workplace reception.
