The proximity of the campaign to the Galician elections on 18F will force Sumar's candidate, Marta Lois, to dedicate herself to the tasks to "achieve change" in Galicia, so next Tuesday will be her last plenary session in Congress as spokesperson parliamentary member of the confederal group. Tasks that, as La Vanguardia has learned, Íñigo Errejón will assume.
The calendar they manage in Yolanda Díaz's party is for Lois to make her last intervention as spokesperson in the chamber in the session of the Lower House that will address the Amnesty bill next Tuesday. Although there is no exact date to formalize her resignation from being a deputy, the Vigo leader intends to do so before February 2. Day on which the campaign in Galicia will officially start.
Lois' departure opens involves two changes. For the first, the replacement in his seat, his replacement will be the economist Manuel Lago, one of the advisors of the second vice president, Yolanda Díaz, in the Ministry of Labor and who appeared as 'number two' on Sumar's list in the constituency for A Coruña.
For the second, and more important, the one chosen to assume the main spokesperson for Sumar is the leader of Más País, Íñigo Errejón. The Madrid politician will assume tasks that he already held during the first stage of Podemos in Congress.
The Sumar parliamentary group praises Errejón's "experience", his "plurinational vision", as well as his ascendancy in Díaz's project by virtue of his "political and communicative capacity". His approach to the second vice president, and leader of the confederal space, has been consolidated to the point that Más País, the formation that Errejón created to, from Más Madrid, compete at the national level, is undertaking integration processes in Sumar in some of its territories.
The Madrid deputy, not in vain, is already part of the provisional Executive of Sumar. Tasks to which the coordination of Sumar's Galician campaign has been added, whose candidate, Lois herself, has accompanied at some pre-campaign rallies. As well as the preparation of the political presentation of Díaz's project, in view of its founding assembly scheduled for next March 23.
Along with Errejón, the deputy spokesperson and leader of En Comú Podem, Aina Vidal - with a feminist profile who enjoys the trust of Díaz and who also has parliamentary experience - and the deputy and IU spokesperson, Enrique Santiago.
