Greek Parliament approves measures, authorises Tsipras & Tsakalotos to negotiate with lenders: 250 in favour, 32 against & 8 abstain #Greece
Questions now if Tsipras can continue with this set-up or whether he needs new MPs/coalition/elections. Also, will lenders trust him #Greece

So, the Greek government's red lines were actually lines in the sand. And they are now being washed away.

Bill submitted last night authorises Tsipras & Tsakalotos to negotiate with lenders. Has to pass through ctte, then plenary #Greece #euro
Left Platform Lafazanis and ANEL boss Kammenos not happy. Greece may be heading for national unity govt of some sort. Big role for Potami?
Greek ball is now in German court. Either Merkel agrees to (serious) debt relief and Bundestag backs it, or Grexit + default + EMU fiasco
Difficulty for Tsipras is that Greek referendum has life of its own. He can't call it, then ignore message. Storing up big political trouble
Syriza has accepted terms rejected by the Greek people in the Referendum. Unless he gets debt relief, can't see how he can sell this

Most importantly, why hold a referendum and then agree to pretty much the same proposal rejected by over 61% of Greek voters? #Greece
The Greek Analyst retweeted
Skimmed through new Greek proposals. Kωλοτούμπα it is. Still some discrepancies on labour market and military spending. #Greece
@fredwalton216 @NickMalkoutzis @dadoudis @drubald @alexdelprete @KellerZoe So we can begin "discussing" it [debt relief language]" forever
My view: without the ECB's move on ELA collateral and that too end ELA for Greek banks, Tsipras would not have capitulated.

IMF: Greece needs more debt relief, more funding, more bank recap. than before referendum http://on.wsj.com/1JXKbAf @IanTalley via @WSJ
The Greek Analyst retweeted
1. With some minor changes this reform package is substantively the one offered by creditors on 26th June and rejected in the referendum.
The Greek Analyst retweeted
2. But if Greece has capitulated on the reforms, it's not a total climb down. They are asking for years of financing in return not months.
The Greek Analyst retweeted
3. Debt relief isn't in the offer to creditors but is the stuff to the Greek Parliament and a related non-paper.
The Greek Analyst retweeted
4. Seems likely that *if* the Greeks carry out the reforms offered, some kind of maturity extension/rate cut is possible.
7. Economy has taken a huge hit in last two weeks (1-2% of GDP lost) and a big hit over last 5/6 months. The big question, was it worth it?
8. Can't see many concessions won by the referendum call, can see lots won by the creditors "deal or you're out" threat though
