MEXICO: New opposition collective emerges
On 30 January, a new political platform launched in Mexico. Mexicolectivo, an organisation made up of former and current opposition politicians, academics, businesspeople, and civil society representatives, states it is a “free, plural, non-partisan and non-profit citizen space for the confluence and debate of ideas and proposals from all regions of the country”. Despite claiming to be apolitical, the collective has heightened political tensions.
