22/07/2019 (Agence Europe) – Still no white smoke in the European Parliament's Culture and Education Committee for the identity of the fourth vice-president. On Monday 22 July, the members of this committee once again rejected the candidacy of Fidesz Party MEP Andrea Bocksor (EPP, Hungary). However, they supported Julie Ward (S&D, British) as 3rd Vice-President. Before the vote, Czech EPP MEP Michaela Sojdrova urged her colleagues to postpone the vote until a negotiated solution was found. She also expressed her caution: "Mrs Bocksor is a very active candidate. There is no reason to exclude her, especially since we have known her for 5 years [Andrea Bocksor sat on the "cult" committee during the 8th legislature: Editor's note]", she said. The appointment of the fourth vice-president has therefore been postponed to September. (SPj) *** updated on Tuesday 23 July
