The plenary of the Hellenic parliament on Wednesday voted in favour of suspending the state funding for the party Spartiates by 267 votes in favour, 15 votes against and five abstentions.
The suspension of the party's funding was recommended by Parliament's Ethics Committee, based on a Supreme Court ruling that its true leader is actually Ilias Kasidiaris, a jailed member of former far-right Golden Dawn, and that the Spartiates party replaces the actions of Golden Dawn, which has been ruled to be a criminal organisation.
