Congress: Podemos Bench responds to Carlos Anderson's resignation

The parliamentary group of Podemos Peru is facing a crisis, which can lead to ungrouped groups because they do not havethe minimum number of members that form the bed plate. Although Carlos Anderson's departure is the root of this problem, the House of Representatives congressman Enrique Wong ( Enrique Wong was no longer surprised by this because he hopes that new members of the House of Representatives would join the parliamentary group.

“Others will participate (...) What I care about is what they think and what they can contribute. I'm not interested in what colors they come in, but that they are qualified people with the expertise to do great things.” It was a statement by the second Vice-President of Congress who came to Congress with a group led by José Luna, who was questioned.

“Resignation is always a pity, but political life continues. What is uncomfortable is the statement of the House of Representatives that he will be more alone than a bad company. We have never ignored him, and although we have respected his decision, it seems that many times we do not understand it.” Wong added, as Anderson commented on the group's departure.

“Even Carlos Anderson takes me under the pretext of visiting the palace with the pastors, not because it has its own vote, but because there was little contact, it is the drag of Daniel Urresti.” He added. It should be recalled that Anderson was a critic of the government of Pedro Castillo and even participated in a meeting held in Miraflores, where the means by which the President of the Republic could quickly deal with it in his tenure was discussed.

“I was hoping they could give me some satisfaction regarding the proximity to the government, the use of posts and, in some way, the approach of power as a bargaining chip. I'm far from such things and I don't want to be part of a bench of this nature.” It was part of a statement when Anderson announced his resignation from the Podemos Peru bench.

Anderson's departure leaves Podemos Peru with a bench made up of only four members. If you don't get a new member, it's no longer officially a bench. However, the impact of resignation may also affect House Member Wong, who holds the second vice-presidency of Congress, a position aimed at those who belong to the bench. The decision on this issue should be discussed at the General Meeting or in a spokesperson.

In addition, Wong is also the chairman of the Consumer Defense Committee because he may lose after changing the bench. According to journalist Martin Hidalgo (Martín Hidalgo), “there is a history in which the president was able to complete his term until July, when the reorganization of the bureau (board of directors) and the presidency of the committee takes place.”

“Podemos must be defined at a meeting of spokespersons, an example of a political agreement; the political game wins because it can help the opposition party maintain delegation with the Vice President in exchange for voting; or give the ruling party to its members to continue with the bench.” The reporter wrote on his Twitter account.

Anderson announced his departure from Podemos Peru, but did not check if he was not grouped or if he was talking to another group to join a working group. Over the past eight months, parliamentarians have become closer to members of the opposition than members of the ruling party who constantly criticized them.
