Another public statement from the UP on the recent defections, but still no comment from UNAM.
Following the defection of the Marquet brothers from UNAM to UP [1], there have been several communiques batted back and forth between the parties of the Conseil National. The UPM coalition now no longer exists according to a letter from UP, which blames some members of UNAM for "destabilizing" the Conseil National majority following the "eviction" of the Marquet brothers.
In a public statement, opposition party Rassemblement & Enjeux (R&E) reacted to the recent troubles. Commenting on the disagreements R&E claimed that fighting for highly paid positions is at the root of the problem. The opposition party is proposing that the President of the National Council should elect a member of R&E to head up an important standing committee. Such an action would show a willingness to change things, and might even bring some stability to the Conseil National, they claim.
