Inside and outside the party, there is a prospect that the innovation committee will set the agenda of the ‘abolition of the representative system’ promoted by pro-myung (pro-Lee Jae-myung) circles. The ‘abolition of the representative system’ is the agenda on which the disagreement between pro-myung and non-myung (non-Lee Jae-myeong) circles is most acute, and there are concerns that it may act as a detonator for future innovation committee activities.
An official from the office of a senior member of the House of Representatives, who is relatively light-hearted, said, “If the innovation committee eventually puts the ‘abolition of the representative system’ as an agenda, there is a risk that the conflict within the party will grow even more.” What I want above is probably the ‘abolishment of the representative system’,” he analyzed.
However, Rep. Kim Young-jin, who is in charge of the party representative and head of the political affairs coordination office, appeared on YTN Radio’s ‘News King Park Ji-hoon’ that day and said, “Since the entire Innovation Committee is talking regarding many tasks, it is unlikely that such a small issue of abolishing the representative system will be (discussed).” He drew a line, saying, “It can be said as one of many tasks. It is not a core task.”
The claim to ‘abolish the representative system’ is an agenda that has been steadily raised centering on pro-Myeong lawmakers. Pro-Myeong lawmakers have pointed out that the problem is that democracy within the party is distorted due to the difference in the ‘equality’ of votes cast by rightful party members and delegates in party elections.
Previously, on the 22nd of last month, CEO Lee Jae-myeong also held a meeting with 57 chairpersons outside the hospital who proposed the “abolition of the representative system” and discussed it. Supreme Council member Jang Gyeong-tae, who belongs to the pro-Myeong faction, also raised the same agenda last month, claiming, “The passage of money envelope temptation is the delegate system.
However, within the party, including lawmakers screaming, it is of the opinion that solving the suspicion of ‘money envelopes’ and coin speculation is a priority. This is because the restoration of voters’ trust ahead of next year’s general elections is a priority rather than resolving the intra-party system, which has a markedly lower public interest.
