泉立民代表、政治改革で「連立」呼び掛け　維新否定的、実現困難の見方

　立憲民主党の泉健太代表は２１日の記者会見で、政治改革や教育無償化などを旗印とする野党の連立政権構想を明らかにした。自民党派閥の政治資金規正法違反事件を踏まえたもので、日本維新の会や国民民主党の参加を念頭に置いている。ただ、維新などが構想に賛同する可能性は低く、現段階では困難との見方が強い。
　泉氏は「自民党に政権を任せられない。自民党に改革は無理だということが明白だ」と強調。その上で「自民党政権、裏金政権、派閥政治の延命を許さない。（各党に）『政治改革政権』をつくることを呼び掛けたい」と語った。（2023/12/21-16:58）

Kenta Izumi, head of the main opposition Constitutional Democratic Party of Japan, on Thursday unveiled his vision for current opposition parties to form a coalition government under the banner of political reform and free education.
   The move comes as the ruling Liberal Democratic Party is reeling from a high-profile political funds scandal involving its factions.
   "We cannot leave government to the LDP," Izumi said at a press conference on the day. "It is obvious that the LDP cannot reform itself."
   "We won't allow the LDP government, the 'slush fund' government and factional politics to continue," the CDP leader stressed. "I would like to call on (opposition colleagues) to form a 'political reform administration.'"
   Izumi apparently envisions a coalition with Nippon Ishin no Kai (Japan Innovation Party) and the Democratic Party for the People. But this vision is seen by many as difficult to realize, as Nippon Ishin and the DPFP seem unlikely to agree to it.
