Olona will rejoin the State Attorney's Office and leaves the door open to return to politics

The former leader of Vox Macarena Olona has announced that she will rejoin her position at the State Attorney's Office this December, although she has left the door open to return to politics in the next general elections.

In an interview on TVE, Olona has confirmed that she will request re-entry into the Legal Profession once the voluntary leave of absence that she requested last July ends, when she announced her resignation from the act of deputy in the Andalusian Parliament and all political activity for health reasons . However, the former Vox leader returned to the public scene shortly after, first to walk the Camino de Santiago, then in a series of public lectures, and finally this November she launched a foundation to combat "gender politics."

As he has assured, he will not participate in the regional and municipal elections in May due to a "sense of responsibility" and the conviction that a "fragmentation" of the political space would be harmful.

"I think it is time to stop and temper," he acknowledged, adding that he does not want to give Vox "any excuse" if its result in the May elections is not good. "I am not going to give anyone an excuse that, due to my actions, they justify if the results are not good. I am not the Vox disease, if anything, one of the symptoms, and not even alone," he has deepened.

Olona has also confirmed having received funding offers to run for the May elections, specifically for the regional elections in the Valencian Community "with numbers that were very favourable", but rejected it because "this is not the time to fragment".

However, it has left the door open to return to politics in the general elections if, "humbly", it can help ensure that the next government does not depend on parties "enemies of Spain". "If I can help ensure that the next government does not depend on separatist forces, I will be there for and for the Spanish people, out of ideological trenches," he explained without wanting to detail how that electoral participation could take place.

In addition, he has slipped several critical comments with Vox, although he has not wanted to directly point out any of his former colleagues. As she has revealed, with the information she has today, she would not have accepted to be a candidate for the Junta de Andalucía and believes that some member of the party -not its leader, Santiago Abascal- saw in it a possibility to remove her from the focus of the Congress of the Deputies.
