Íñigo Errejón will go alone to the elections in Madrid | …

The spokesperson for Más Madrid Monica Garcia rejected the unitary candidacy proposed on Monday by the leader of Podemos, Pablo IglesiasTherefore, the formation will compete with its own list for the regional elections in the Community of Madrid on May 4. Despite this, and after the snap of the purple formation, the doctor guaranteed that there will be “collaboration, cooperation and dialogue” with the rest of the progressive formations so that the results at the polls translate into an “indisputable government agreement”.

In this sense, García wanted to minimize the fragmentation of the left vote. “It is clear that all the options are over the five percent mark and there is no need to fear that it will be wasted with just one vote. the best way to mobilizea decent Madrid and not vote to stay at home, ”he suggested.

García opened the door on Monday to negotiate with Iglesias to attend the elections on the same list after the vice president announced his departure from the government to dispute Madrid with Isabel Díaz Ayuso of the Popular Party, president of the Community of Madrid. He noted that these discussions should be held “tax-free and testosterone-free”. On the night of the same day, in an interview with La Sexta, Iglesias again reached out to García and assured that a long and lasting conversation would take place on the same day or during that morning.

However, negotiations did not materialize. Mónica García announced that she would be a candidate: “I want to be the next president of the Community of Madrid”, she assured. “We have been working for a long time, we have a feminist, regionalist and green project well greased”, defended the representative of the formation of Íñigo Errejón.

In his message on Monday, Iglesias insisted that agreeing on a joint candidacy was not going to be easy: “There are many scars, but what we play is important enough that we try to achieve unity, ”he explained. Garcia solved the blunt issue: “Devote us to looking at our navels, talking about ourselves, or kicking ourselves.” distracts us from the most important, which is to throw Ayuso and the far right “.

On the other hand, García pointed out that women are already “tired of doing dirty work” so that in historic moments they are put aside: “We have more than demonstrated that we know how to stop the far right without anyone protecting us,” he says. Thus, García described the call to the elections as irresponsibility to which “more frivolity, more spectacle, more testosterone” cannot be added.

In the same vein, it was pronounced Íñigo Errejón, that in a tweet accompanied by García’s video, he wrote: “Feminism has taught us that we don’t always have to be the protagonists.”
