The deputy of Social Convergence Gabriel Boric launched this Tuesday against his colleague from the Humanist Party Pamela jiles, after the legislator’s chief of staff, Pablo Maltese, who is also her husband and candidate for governor for the Metropolitan Region, will present -from the National Congress- a constitutional reform project for a third withdrawal of 10 percent of the funds of the AFPs.

Via Twitter, Boric affirmed that proposing the motion in the middle of the execution of the second draft of pension savings corresponds to a “irresponsibility”.

Also, regarding the way in which the project was presented, the representative of Magallanes said that “They take advantage of people’s need for their personal interests.”

“We must insist on emergency family income above the poverty line and move forward with taxes on the super rich. Let’s regain the initiative and make public policies seriously“he added in a second tweet.

Jiles did not delay in picking up the glove and assured that Boric is equivalent to a “political class taking care of its privileges and the AFPs taking care of the bosses”. In return, she assured that she represents a people “punished by repressive laws passed by Boric and (Giorgio Jackson)” – in reference to the “anti-looting” and “anti-hooded” laws – and “plundered by that political class that serves itself and the powerful.”

After this, the distance confrontation added a new response from Boric: “Do you know what the difference is, deputy? That there are those of us who, when we make a mistake, recognize it and work to amend it. His logic of insulting those who think differently peaked. And proposing that workers continue to pay for the crisis to promote their partner is not the solution. “

HISTORY OF CONFLICTS

This is not the first time that deputies Boric and Jiles are in the focus of the differences: One of the first known was when the Frente Amplio leader agreed to participate in the Table for Children convened by President Sebastián Piñera, at the beginning of his mandate, in 2018.

On that occasion, the legislator PH questioned her counterpart CS for attending the “kitchen” of the Head of State, qualifying it as “unwary”, and called him to give explanations to the voters of the Frente Amplio. Boric claimed to act for “convictions” and he ordered her not to discuss these matters in the press.

After the outbreak of the social crisis, Jiles lashed out that Boric and the rest of the bloc have joined the agreement of November 15, 2019 for peace and a new Constitution, ensuring that they signed in exchange for “guarantee impunity” in relation to cases of human rights violations.

After that, at the end of December last year, the PH decided to resign from the FA.

Last Sunday, asked about Jiles’ leadership and his presidential option, Boric said in the program “Zero Tolerance” (CNN Chile) what “I prefer to refer to leaderships that are building collective projects”, adding that “I hope that the candidacy raised by the left is a collective project.”

REJECTION OF THE PROJECT

The presentation of the motion by Jiles’ husband caused annoyance in Congress, both in the government and opposition benches.

Along the same lines as Boric, the deputy Marcelo Diaz, presidential candidate of Unir (FA), criticized that the measure was announced by Maltese, noting that It seems to him “more like a strategy to raise candidacies based on the needs of the people.”

Miguel Crispi, Deputy of the Democratic Revolution, agreed that “it does not seem to me that a candidate, who is an advisor to a deputy, occupies this space to generate this type of controversy and win votes. “

The deputy of the Christian Democracy Matias Walker urged “to don’t confuse people because the third withdrawal has already been rejected in the Commission (of Constitution) and, therefore, it would call not to generate false expectations in this regard. “

“I am not going to inflate the camp or the expectations of any candidate to anything. I understand that the role of the parliament is to legislate accordingly and, therefore, it is the parliamentarians who have to announce these withdrawals and not candidates,” he added. also deputy DC Ivan Flores.
