何志勇以無黨籍身分參選新竹市長,國民黨中常會決議撤銷其黨籍。
國民黨中常會今天通過撤銷以無黨籍身分參選新竹市長的何志勇黨籍決議,何志勇晚間也發表聲明,認為這是實屬「親者痛,仇者快」的錯誤方向。
他說,2006年響應前總統馬英九重塑國民黨黨魂的號召,加入國民黨至今,無論政黨起伏,從未離開國民黨,2022年更獲前主席朱立倫信任,指派他扎根新竹市,了解市民的需要與未來新竹市的發展。但本次市長選舉,國民黨黨中央高舉「藍白合」標語,忽視現任市長高虹安的各種市政與品格上的爭議,從未給他公平競爭的初選機制,令人感到失望。
何志勇提到,國民黨中央甚至從未傾聽新竹市民的心聲,不關心4年來新竹市政的遲滯不前。他參選本屆新竹市長的初衷在於,不忍市民的需要未獲滿足,不甘市政原地踏步,要當市民的最大公僕。如今黨中央的決定,他聽到了;他也喊話,國民黨同志累了,想休息,沒關係,他會堅守愛中華民國、愛新竹市的本心,繼續走下去,會等國民黨回來跟他走下去。
