Regarding the issue of the Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba giving the vouchers of commodities worth 100 thousand yen to the 15 LDP lawmakers who have got the post of the Diet member for the first time at the dinner party in the Prime Minister's Official Residence the other day, he denied its illegality but apologized at the budgetary committee of the House of the Councilors on February 14. The opposition parties are pursuing the responsibility of him, and the Democratic Party for the People leader Yuichiro Tamaki demanded he should resign the post. There is a lot of criticism coming even the ruling party LDP because of the fear for the bad influence on the House of Councilors elections in this summer. Given such circumstances, he is being driven into a corner.
