Aftermath of Isabel Allende's Removal

Following the Constitutional Court's decision to remove Senator Isabel Allende from her position due to a failed property purchase, the Socialist Party (PS) is grappling with the fallout. The article details the party's efforts to support Allende, including a visit to her home in Guardia Vieja, and discussions regarding her replacement in the Senate.

Party's Response and Internal Divisions

The PS is divided on how to proceed. While some members are angry with the government for not anticipating the unconstitutionality of the purchase and causing Allende's political downfall, others suggest maintaining party unity. The choice of Allende's successor is also a point of contention, with discussions focusing on maintaining representation within her political faction, 'Grandes Alamedas'.

Allende's State and Future Actions

Allende remains secluded and deeply affected by the situation. Limited contact with the outside world is reported, though she plans to continue her Senate duties until official notification of her removal. The PS intends to offer further support, potentially at upcoming party events.
