Recent news indicates a shift within the Palma City Council. Councilor Gari Durán, who served as the spokesperson for the Vox city council group and as a councilor, made a sudden resignation announcement on Wednesday.
Resignation Process and Expected Timeline
According to the report, Durán's resignation from his councilor position is slated to be addressed as an urgent agenda item on Thursday. Consequently, as of Friday, Durán will no longer be performing his duties as a city councilor. Doesn't the background of such a sudden decision pique your curiosity?
Personal Reasons, Or Something More?
Councilor Durán stated that the reason for his resignation is 'personal matters.' According to his statement, this decision is due to 'pure and hard' personal reasons and he emphasized that it is 'entirely unrelated' to the Vox party itself, its organization, or its ideology. 😮
He cited a 'vital moment in his life' as the reason, explaining that it is more connected to a stage in his personal life than to political issues. His decision to step down from the front lines at the age of 61 suggests the depth of consideration behind it.
Independent Activity, Continued Support for the Party
Interestingly, Durán ran as an 'independent' candidate, not as an official member of the Vox party. Therefore, although he is not affiliated with the party organizationally, he has stated that he will 'continue to support the party' going forward. 🤝
These remarks are interpreted as an intention to clarify that internal crises or conflicts were not the cause of his resignation. He reiterated that he 'does not militate' and emphasized that his departure is unrelated to the party's issues.
Past Experience and a New Beginning
Councilor Gari Durán has a past record as a 'senator for the PP' (Partido Popular). However, he left the PP due to ideological discrepancies. In 2023, he accepted Vox's proposal for a new challenge, but now he faces another turning point.
Personal Reasons in Politics
The decision to step down from political frontline for personal reasons must not have been easy. Especially at the age of 61, choosing a new way of life requires considerable courage. Councilor Durán's decision seems to show us that 'politicians, too, should have their diverse life stages and personal choices respected.'
