The support of a radical sector for the government ended up diluting the possibilities of a broad opposition alliance that could reverse the presidential decision.

The change of position of the radical deputies, aggravated because it was their same block that drafted the project of the Integrated Retirement and Pension System approved, it will not be the only one: since Federal Innovationa bench that supported the reform in June and where the legislators respond to the provincial governments, assured Scope that this Wednesday They would not have a homogeneous vote but the majority are preparing to abstain. Union for the Homeland hopes that no surprises will emerge from its members.
The opposition expected to have about 160 votes (close to the 172 that two thirds implies), but it would remain at about 150. It would only remain to know the loyalties of those disenchanted with the Government, such as the ex-libertarian Lourdes Arrieta or the larretist Alvaro Gonzalezand hope that the images of the police action of last Wednesday in the session are not repeated, where the Pensioners’ demonstration will be accompanied by the CGT.
