What a ‘no’ (OXI) vote means for …

…Government

While Syriza would survive Mr Tsipras and his fellow ministers would still need to take immediate action to stabilise the country. If the prime minister is right and the eurozone responds to a no vote by offering a fresh round of bailout talks he will still have try to hold together a country close to social breakdown.

However, if Mr Tsipras is wrong and the creditors cut off Greece’s banking system that is when the horror show really begins. He will need to implement emergency measures to pay public sector workers and recapitalise the banks. This would probably mean issuing state IOUs as a form of parallel currency, while also commissioning the printing of drachma notes. Under these circumstances Mr Tsipras would need to explain to an angry and frightened Greek population why he got it wrong when he said no would lead to more talks and was compatible with Greece remaining as a full member of the euro. If his explanation does not convince, the government could fall. Martial law is not impossible.
