This phrase was written by Guido Manini Ríos in an internal circulation of Cabildo Abierto militants. And he also affirms that from the Executive Tower President Luis Lacalle has a “plan against Irene, against me and against Cabildo Abierto”.
With a dose of surprise that remains in this hyper-charged world of information and misinformation, a letter that the leader of Cabildo Abierto, Guido Manini Ríos, sent to his militants via a WhatsApp group arrived at the EL ECO Newsroom.
In search of checking the veracity of it, we confirmed that the letter had already been published by the Observer and disseminated by other portals; The leader of the Cabildo Abierto does not provide statements about it.
The argument that it is a letter from “the internal lobbyist” does not fit, because if Manini says things like that there is a “plan of the Executive Tower” against him or that the political system is “corrupt”, anyone can analyze that this letter becomes valuable information.
The letter
The first thing that questions the letter is the report of the Santo y seña program on irregularities in the allocation of homes during the management of Irene Moreira as minister. In the letter released, Manini Ríos assures that the television program follows “a plan arranged from Executive Tower”.
“Given the offensive of Santo y seña tonight (Sunday, July 2), clearly not only against Irene but also against me and against Cabildo Abierto, and following a plan set out from the Executive Tower, the following considerations should be made,” Manini begins. Rios the letter that was addressed to party members.
With reference to the accusations made in the journalistic program, Manini argued that: “Olga Camacho was not given a house, she was changed the one she had for more than a decade. Even the new one is of less value than the old one.”
“The change was agreed upon at her request because it was fractured, and because there were free houses at ground level. For the one that was awarded, and another one previously, a call had been made to interested parties and no one showed up, so no one was harmed.
“It does not make sense that, having vacant housing at ground level, a fractured person with serious difficulties climbing stairs would be denied the change. It would have been given to any person in those conditions, regardless of their political sympathies.
After the explanations given by the senator about the journalistic report, Manini Ríos later targeted the Frente Amplio legislator Sebastián Sabini and also against the National Party and the Colorado Party.
Blancos and colorados “are determined to show that the Cabildo Abierto is as corrupt as they are”
“Some frontistas like Sabini jump on the bandwagon and, without showing up, whites and reds determined to show that the Cabildo is as corrupt as they are. No one talks about the fact that when Irene traveled to Europe, upon her return, she returned more than 5,000 dollars that they gave her for travel expenses. No one talks about that, they want to show her as corrupt and yet, in each of the proceedings that accuse her of her, she complied with the law and the State did not lose a peso, and the person involved met the requirements. The problem seems to be that he favored a lobbyist…”
income without contest
“The hypocrisy and cynicism is tremendous. It seems that the hundreds of admissions without contest to white or red militants (already frontists) in ministries and municipalities, the import permits on the farm, the benefits of all kinds, including houses at the municipal level for party militants, and so many other actions that we see every day, they are allowed. If we remain silent, it is to grant these scoundrels the reason, and that goes directly against the Cabildo Abierto,” said Manini Ríos in the letter that was circulated via WhatsApp.
