As regards opinion polls, “We don’t have transparency in Mexico” pollster Francisco Abundis tells Canning House session on #Mexico ’s upcoming elections on June 2nd.

Lawrence Whitehead, speaking Canning House says there may be scope for some margin of surprise - highlights that Mexico election campaign has been dangerous for candidates and journalists.

Oxford University’s Lawrence Whitehead reminds audience Canning House’s #Mexico panel that the June 2nd elections are not just about electing a new president but also Governors, Senators and 1000s of state and municipal level officials.

The general election in #Mexico on June 2nd “might be the last election in our very young constitutional democracy” suggests Jesus Silva Herzog Márquez, speaking Canning House’s elections seminar in London.

“Pemex (the Mexican state oil company) is a huge risk - like an atomic bomb waiting to explode and each administration just passes on the codes.”
Valeria Moy doesn’t pull any punches Canning House’s #Mexico election session in the run up to the vote on June 2nd.

Economist Valeria Moy tells Canning House #Mexico elections session “the main risk is not economic. While gdp growth is stagnant there is a high amount of investment. The real risk is, she says, democratic.

Mexico’s top priority “has to be making the most of nearshoring opportunities” says Michael Stott who also tells audience Canning House #Mexico elections session that gdp “has barely changed” under President López Obrador.

So there are some other elections…
Now kicking off Canning House ‘s final session on the Mexican general election which will almost certainly see Mexic’s first female president on June 2nd.

UK regulated sectors and organisation have a duty to identify vulnerable customers intervene to prevent harm BUT Department for Work and Pensions are out of step with the policy Government Departments require of the regulators that they sponsor - National Audit Office should also ask why this is?

On the eve of the general elections, two of the three #Mexico 's presidential candidates sign RSF’s pledge to protect journalism. It is urgent that press freedom is definitely a priority for the next 🇲🇽 government. 👇
