The Democrats, IA and Atassut thought they had an agreement with Naleraq to wait for the internal disputes between incumbent Siumut mayor Palle Jerimiassen and the biggest vote-swallower Minik Høegh-Dam to be resolved before the parties could negotiate an agreement in place on the next four years of politics in the northern municipality.On Saturday, however, Naleraq signed an agreement with Minik Høegh-Dam, who thus got a majority behind him as mayor, after Palle Jerimiassen had announced that he was withdrawing from the party and wanted to be a non-attached member.Thus, the three parties had no immediate influence at all on the municipality's overall political objectives.Selfish action- It is really bad style on Naleraq's part to suddenly go it alone, now that we had given each other a handshake to wait for the internal problems in Siumut to be resolved, states Atassut's party chairman, Aqqalu C. Jerimiassen, who was re-elected to the municipal council.- It is a very selfish act and I am really disappointed, says Aqqalu C. Jerimiassen, who has a hard time predicting how the cooperative relations in the municipal council will be over the next four years.The distribution todayThe distribution of the 17 municipal council members today looks like this after Palle Jerimiassen has said goodbye to Siumut and chosen to become a non-attached member:
Siumut: 8
Naleraq: 2
Atassut: 2
Democrats: 1
IA: 3
Non-attached Member: 1
