Changes in political equation: Ka Leody open for talks with Leni; Hilbay of Aksyon Demokratiko quits Isko

Changes in the political equation might rock the playing field.

Labor-backed presidential bet Ka Leody De Guzman expresses willingness for talks with Vice President Leni Robredo for a unified candidate to beat the Bongbong Marcos-Sara Duterte tandem.

Meanwhile, former senatorial candidate Florin Hilbay left Aksyon Demokratiko to support VP Leni Robredo.

“I respect the decision of my party to choose Mayor Isko Moreno as candidate for president, but also believe VP Leni is a much better candidate in this most crucial of elections,” Hilbay said.

Hilbay said: “I am leaving Aksyon not to join another party, but out of ethical considerations.”
