TOKYO Cheap Marko Grujic Jersey , July 5 (Xinhua) -- Japan's ruling and opposition parties agreed to reconvene parliament next week for one-off committee deliberations with the ruling Liberal Democratic Party's (LDP's) multiple scandals and gaffes being the main focal points.


With the ruling LDP now on the back foot following an historic clobbering against Tokyo Governor Yuriko Koike's newly-formed Tomin First no Kai (Tokyoites First party) in the Tokyo metropolitan assembly election on Sunday, a fortified opposition camp will pull no punches in its upbraiding of the scandal-plagued LDP.


The reconvening of parliament, follows the opposition camp initially baulking at an offer made by the ruling LDP for committee deliberations to be held on July 10 or 11, as prime minister Shinzo Abe, central to at least one of the scandals dogging the ruling camp Cheap Mamadou Sakho Jersey , will not be able to attend as he will be in Germany for the G20 summit.


But following two meetings held between LDP Diet Affairs Committee Chairman Wataru Takeshita and Democratic Party Diet affairs chief Kazunori Yamanoi, it was agreed that the committee deliberations would be held and the LDP, reversing its previous position, consented to allow Kihei Maekawa, a former vice minister of education Cheap Lucas Leiva Jersey , to be summoned to give unsworn testimony in parliament.


Maekawa has alleged that Abe has used his position and influence to help Kake Educational Institution, which is chaired by a close friend of Abe's, to secure a deal to open a new veterinary medicine department in a special deregulated zone.


On the heels of the LDP's meteoric loss in the Tokyo assembly election which has severely damaged the very foundation of the party, with its future course and leadership now uncertain, the opposition camp will waste no time in quizzing Maekawa over documents that allegedly prove Abe's involvement in the influence-peddling scandal.


The Democratic Party Cheap Loris Karius Jersey , Japanese Communist Party, Social Democratic Party and Liberal Party have also taken aim at Defense Minister Tomomi Inada, calling for her to be sacked for violating the nation's Self-Defense Forces Law, which strictly prohibits political activities by its personnel.


Inada called on voters during a stump speech ahead of the election to cast their ballots for a LDP candidate, saying that the request came from "the Defense Ministry Cheap Lazar Markovic Jersey , the Defense Minister and the LDP."


Hours later she retracted her contentious comments saying that they might lead to "misunderstandings."


Democratic Party leader Renho, who goes by her first name, at the time said that Inada's remarks ran contrary to the SDF law and were out of line and insisted that she should resign immediately.


She added that Abe bore the responsibility as well as it was him that appointed her to her post as defense minister.


The LDP being on the receiving end of its worst defeat in the history of the Tokyo municipal election has shaken up politics in Japan and the public's overwhelming support for Koike and her new party is not only a testament to their faith in the Tokyo Governor, but it is also a very clear message sent to Abe and the LDP that they are dissatisfied with the way the party has been handling a number of contentious matters recently.


The LDP and senior officials have been embroiled in a number of scandals and gaffes recently and the public feel they have not fully accounted for themselves and used their majority to simply push their own agenda, Asian Affairs commentator Cheap Kevin Stewart Jersey , Kaoru Imori, told Xinhua.


Experts here have also been quick to highlight the fact that the LDP's defeat was so
