Members of the House Minority Bloc aren't cool with political parties' tendency to back Malacañang's
Members of the House Minority Bloc aren’t cool with political parties’ tendency to back Malacañang’s “anointed one” as far as the Speakership is concerned.
Asked by reporters during a press conference about their take on the Speakership race in the upcoming 18th Congress, Garbin shared an observation regarding local political parties. Grapevine reports said that Romualdez, a former Independent Minority Bloc leader, already has the manifested support of 126 congressmen out of the 290-strong House.
In the event Barbers gets the nod of his colleagues, he will have followed in the footsteps of fellow Mindanaoan Davao del Norte 1st district Rep. Pantaleon Alvarez, who served as Speaker at the beginning of the 17th Congress.
