If I were Leni Robredo, I wouldn’t be reminding people of what happened back in 2016 when allegations of electoral fraud marred what was supposed to be an “important” national election. In arrogantly proclaiming that she handily beat rival candidate Bongbong Marcos for the vice presidency back then, old wounds have been opened including those…
Has Leni Robredo actually taken a stand on anything controversial? It seems that the only thing she’s taken a stand on is, get this, the COVID-19 pandemic. And why not, right?

James Jimenez, spokesperson of the Philippines’ Commission on Elections (COMELEC) had already issued a statement on the matter confirming that vote buying…

Leni Robredo today issued a statement asserting that she regards herself as a “healing leader”.
