Case of the Clerk of the Walloon Parliament: Marcourt agrees to resign, Manu Disabato follows
In the process, Paul Magnette, who had supported him before asking for his resignation, “welcomed the decision” of the Liégeois to withdraw from his post as president “in order to make possible the renewal of the Bureau of the Parliament of Wallonia. This act was necessary to restore the credibility of the institution and restore confidence between Walloon citizens and their elected representatives”. He also called on “the members of the other parties to do the same in order to be able to form a new Bureau, extended to the opposition”.
After the resignation of @PecriauxSophieall the Socialists of the Bureau took the measure of the events. I call on the members of the other parties to do the same in order to be able to form a new Bureau, extended to the opposition.

The Walloon MP Manu Disabato (Ecolo), who said Monday morning that he would resign this evening if Marcourt did not decide, also announced his withdrawal from the Bureau of the Walloon Parliament, after the announcement of Jean-Claude Marcourt. “I think it is necessary for the whole of the Bureau to be renewed, so that Parliament can regain serenity. I have therefore communicated to the clerk my decision to withdraw from it. It is my decision”, indicated the deputy in a communicated.
