Alternativets founder and political leader, Uffe Elbæk, is abusing its power to benefit its own interests.
that is How it sounds from the Alternative næstforperson and member of the executive council, William Stamp Nordahl Møller. He has, after the internal turmoil now chosen to leave the party.
he writes in a posting on Facebook.
– I’ve taken an incredibly difficult decision. However, it is a decision that I believe is necessary, and I would like to share with you. Today I have chosen to sign myself out of the Alternative, he writes.
William Stamp Kings Mills comes with a long series of criticisms of the Alternativets political leadership.
– After having entered in the ‘party leadership’, I have been witness to several events, which makes that I no longer can support the political leadership in the Alternative, and I may then conclude, that it is not possible for me to live up to the responsibility as næstforperson for the main board, he writes.
He writes, moreover, that his ‘anchor is based primarily on a single person’s actions and words’.
He writes that it involves the founder and political leader of the party. He does not mention Uffe Elbæks name, but he has stated to Berlingske that it is him, he refers to.
‘To be the founder and political leader of a party is a big responsibility, which automatically included a massive informal power. It requires great integrity and professionalism to live up to the responsibilities and exercise the power fairly. Some grow with the task, others end up with to exploit their position for their own incentive – I find that last scenario is the case with the Alternative’, writes William Stamp Nordahl Møller and continues his criticism:
‘I have seen the person hang the members and hard working volunteers out to meetings with representatives from large parts of the hinterland. I have also seen the person in question the most basic parts of the party’s medlemsdemokrati. Principles have been non-existent, and the power has been spent counting and for the benefit of their own interests’.
He also writes in the advertisement that he has already joined in the Party.
– I see that the Social democrats have some structures, which recognises and accepts differences, and does not try to lull them down, but rather to transform these differences into a common strength.
