Hounded by left, Tsipras vows 'thus far, no further'

Athens

GREEK Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras, struggling to contain a revolt in his left-wing Syriza party, said on Wednesday that his government would not implement reform measures beyond those agreed with lenders at a eurozone summit this month.

Mr Tsipras faces a tough Syriza central committee session on Thursday with many activists angered by his acceptance of bailout terms more stringent than those that voters rejected in a July 5 referendum.
