mr tsipras‘s syriza party, seems to to have paid the price, for failing to oppose austerity measureseu, in return for financial bailouts. our correspondent, mark lowen reports from athens. a victory cry for a change of guard greece's centre—right new democracy cheering its new era, winning an outright majority and ousting alexis tsipras. its leader has refreshed a party once seen as the corrupt establishment. and, as the populist, left—wing tsipras broke promises to end austerity, greece has returned to the political mainstream. well, first of all, i asked for a strong mandate to change the country, and the greek people delivered. i'm very, very grateful for the result. we won an outright majority, which was our main target. alexis tsipras put on a brave face as he voted earlier, but it was almost a eulogy. he lost many supporters after his humiliating u—turn from 2015, when he pledged to rip up the bailout and budget cuts, but instead accepted a third rescue programme, in return for more austerity, becoming the brussels establishment he had fought against. the rhetoric has been rele

he has seen the austerity stuff and tax cuts as a way to get there.riakos mitsotakis sort of has a classical pedigree. he was that mckinsey, studied in the west. politics have not been kind in recent years for people with this kind of background, technocratic, reformers. risks if some of these next few years don't go well? charles: i think greece is different than the rest of europe in that it has had a run with sort of an object populist. predecessor,s, his came from very obscure corners of the left to dominate left of center politics and set himself up as a new spokesman for the left. in terms of his core voters, he did not deliver. that is a very different background. he is following a populist who didn't deliver. that gives him i think more running room to do what he thinks and knows is right. theclassical connections to global financial market i think will allow ago understand what greece needs to do. romaine: is there any sort of read through to other countries in europe or the rest of the world? charles: if i were victor or hungary,ictor orban

and actually theresa may at the last tory party conference said the era of austerity is over.n yea rs of is over. and was it? not quite. ten years of cutting budgets across public services is very difficult to reverse , public services is very difficult to reverse, and public appetite is now coming around to wanting to invest in services again. they have been so constrained and so badly hit at schools and so comic hospitals are suffering, councils have had their budgets halved across the board. people can see that the frontline delivery has really suffered. so yes, it is politically clever, but don't forget it is a tory lead government under the coalition and the tory government subsequently that delivered austerity. so boris johnson might get so far by promising to reverse it, but as claire mentioned, where is the money coming from, especially if there is no deal? away from the backstop, and in fact it is on the front page of the independent, with borisjohnson and a chicken. we know that he is due to be having talks, having talks tonight, having talks tomorrow, we think, and
