The Bleeding Continues: Troubles and Departures from Schaerbeek’s Mayor’s List

The bleeding continues,” notes an observer of local political life. The image of sugar gradually melting in a glass of hot water is also suitable as a metaphor. Since the start of the legislature, the Mayor’s List in Schaerbeek has been falling apart, recording departures. The difficulties surrounding the implementation of the Good Move mobility plan in the municipality are particularly raising eyebrows. Recently, two electoral locomotives at the local level left the list led in 2018 by Bernard Clerfayt (Défi). First Sadik Köksal last June, then Bernard Guillaume this Wednesday. The first went to the MR, the second to the local group MR&Citoyens.

Both believe that the environmentalist partner has gained the upper hand and is disproportionately imposing his ideas on the college. This Thursday, it is the turn of municipal councilor Emel Dogancan kotaoglu to leave the group. She will now sit as an independent: “I am doing it for the same reasons as Bernard Guillaume. » Which on Wednesday publicly denounced an “Eco-dictatorship”. Since Bernard Clerfayt served as Brussels minister in 2019, Cécile Jodogne has served as acting mayor. For Amaranth, managing the commune during the last year of the legislature will not be an easy task. She will have to compromise with the opposition to advance points in the municipal council.
