The parliamentarian from Más Madrid Loreto Arenillas She could be a non-attached deputy in the Madrid Assembly, giving the PSOE the leadership of the opposition to the president of the Community of Madrid, Isabel Díaz Ayuso.
This is one of the unknowns that Arenillas has opened this Monday, who On Friday she announced that she would deliver her minutes as a deputy in the Assembly after being accused of covering up alleged sexual abuse by former Sumar spokesperson Íñigo Errejón. But this Monday, when he could formalize that resignation, he has not registered the resignation.
In fact, after the press conference of the three co-spokespersons of Más Madrid (Mónica García, Manuela Bergerot and Rita Maestre), issued a statement in which she announced that she would denounce to Más Madrid the “abuse of power” of the party leadership against her. In fact, it focused on the fact that the executive could not demand delivery of the minutes, since only the Guarantees Commission can do that.
According to the Assembly Regulations, Loreto Arenillas could become non-affiliated by her own decision or by being expelled from the Parliamentary Group. She would maintain her status as a parliamentarian until the next regional elections.
This movement would also have effects in the Plenary Assembly, since the leadership of the opposition would pass to the PSOE. More Madrid and the socialists were tied at 27 seats in the 2023 elections, but those led then by Monica Garcia.
By becoming non-affiliated Arenillas, the seat in front of Ayuso would no longer correspond to Bergerot and would pass to the leader of the socialists, Juan Lobato.
As stated in the Regulations, the Assembly Board must decide the procedure for non-attached members to intervene in the Plenary Session or the Assembly committees, having to respect in all cases their right to be part of at least one committee.
