The internal crisis within Vox Ceuta took shape this Tuesday after the party’s spokesperson and visible face revealed that during the previous legislature there was opaque use of the party’s accounts. The controversial Carlos Verdejo, still a deputy and part of the parliamentary group in this term, although no longer affiliated, offered an appearance before the media in which he harshly attacked the current leader of the formation in the autonomous city, Juan Sergio Redondo, whom he came to flirt with “behaviors typical of a beach bar.”
The former spokesperson had presented his resignation as a member days ago and sat in the press room of the Assembly ready to explain in depth the struggles that arose within the organization. He was accompanied by a bulky folder in which he said he had part of the party’s accounts: “If Redondo wants, I will make them public this morning,” threatened the deputy, who admitted to having signed some and knowing their content only because of what was provided to him. Municipal intervention.
“I don’t think there is anything illegal. If I have any indication that this happens like this, I’ll go to court. “I believe that these accounts are unethical,” he then stated about some of the “practices” and “organized behavior” within the party with which he does not agree and which “have not stopped even though they have tried.”
Along these lines, he questions that there may be expenses of up to 2,500 euros without justification and defends that he has always advocated total transparency. “The bases on which this money has to be justified are a shame, because they easily allow payments and realities below 2,500 euros to be hidden from everyone,” he revealed, before apologizing for not having been previously aware of it.
And although he has indicated that “very important details to know are omitted”, the Vox member wanted to make it clear that he has “never” accessed the party’s bank account nor has he even had the keys to operate from it.
“It is never too late, as I usually do, to ask for papers, as I have done with countless beach bars,” he maintained, before associating the party leader in Ceuta and some of his trusted people with behaviors “typical of a beach bar.” However, Verdejo avoided extending the adjective to the party or the parliamentary group.
The “boycott” of the team and shadow support
For him, there has been a kind of “boycott” against his figure and against other members of the party in the City, whose origin is in the will of Juan Sergio Redondo. A sabotage in which the personal advisors of the president of the group, the head of communication, Virginia Saura, the head of membership, Romina Reyes, and the coordinator of the Parliamentary Group and also advisor of the formation, David Romero, would have participated, always “following rajatabla” Redondo’s designs.
As examples, he has referred to the rejection of one of his proposals in Plenary and the forgetting of another to finally find himself with a new protocol that “appears mysteriously” and for which he cannot present his third idea because it is “out of time.” Likewise, he indicated that “requests for interviews have been hidden from him.”
Disagreements that were already emerging among rumors since after the elections he took to social networks to publish that the loss of his spokesperson, which had led him to star in eye-catching headlines in the media, had not been a voluntary change. Much less consensual.
A few days ago he once again used his personal profile to contradict Redondo regarding a press release from the party in which the president attributed responsibility for the problems of coexistence between neighbors and unaccompanied foreign minors to the head of the area. of minors, the former secretary of the PSOE Toñi Palomo.
It turned out that, as it seemed, communication between Redondo and Verdejo had not been flowing for a long time. The former spokesperson has had no qualms about pointing out how more than two months ago he received a message from his president requesting that he “refrain” from sending him emails or WhatsApps. A notice that has challenged you to publish.
As a culmination, he has slipped that not only is he not isolated in the Parliamentary Group, but that he has support at the national level and has quoted Santiago Abascal with that famous phrase of “people who change their principles, throw them on the bonfire.” “, to reaffirm that “Vox remains to the left of Carlos Verdejo.”
