れいわ・山本代表、竹中平蔵氏の叙勲を追及　高市首相「師匠ではない」　参院本会議（2025年11月6日）

On the 6th, the House of Councilors held a question-and-answer session regarding Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi's policy speech. Reiwa Shinsengumi leader Taro Yamamoto questioned Takaichi about the awarding of the Order of the Rising Sun to Heizo Takenaka and his evaluation of the Koizumi reforms. Yamamoto pointed out, "Takenaka, who could be considered the Prime Minister's mentor, was awarded the Grand Cordon of the Order of the Rising Sun. The Cabinet Office explains that as a minister, he participated in important government policies, but in reality, he lifted the ban on temporary employment in manufacturing and expanded non-regular employment." He criticized, "Non-regular workers accounted for approximately 40% of the total workforce, and the wage gap widened to 3.28 million yen. Only capitalists were happy." He asked what the Prime Minister considered Takenaka's achievements. Takaichi stated, "Takenaka Heizo was never my mentor," and explained that she was not involved, saying, "The autumn award was decided by the Ishiba Cabinet, and I do not have the record of his achievements." On the other hand, the committee praised Takenaka, saying, "As Minister of State for Economic and Fiscal Policy, he contributed to economic revitalization, and in his concurrent role as Minister of Finance, he worked hard to strengthen the stability of the financial system."
