The PSOE still licks the wounds of the autonomic and municipal elections of May 2023, in which he rented with almost all his institutional power in a large-scale elections the critical sector of the PSOE embodied Emilian independence. Especially with Junts, who to support Sanchez’s last investiture demanded in exchange the amnesty law. The president of Castilla-La Mancha has been the speaker of those who within the PSOE fear that the history of 2023 (autonomous and local elections in May; generals less than two months later) is repeated in 2027 and that is why he has called for the generals to be held before the rest of the elections.
“This legislature began with some very unbeliers of unfeasibility, which does not lead me to want elections tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, which is something that the PP has raised from the first moment,” said García-Page in a subsequent appearance of the summit held in Barcelona. “What I do is that the generals were held two months after the socialist cattle and were the pacts of the PP and Vox that reversed those results. That cannot happen again. The mayors and socialist presidents cannot be the trench where the tension is relieved in Spain. For me it would be unfair with the municipalities and socialist autonomies to put them in front and take the slaps of the national politics. He uses them as infantry and trench and that the kick is carried by others, ”he emphasized. Sanchez has reiterated that his intention is to complete the legislature and that, therefore, the generals will be in two years. Page has not joined the PP requests at the meeting. Already outside, he has clarified his position so that he did not get confused with that of the popular regional presidents: “The PP would always be asking for elections until they give them to govern.”
Page has not talked about dates or calendars, but he has urged the general secretary of his party to meet his lawsuit. “The national policy sank socialist municipalities and autonomies in 2023 and this time it cannot happen again. They cannot be victims or hostages of that national tension,” he said in Barcelona. The only socialist baron with an absolute majority, “disappointed” with the “lack of commitment” of the government to update the regional financing system, has made a defense on and nothing imposed on Salvador Illa and the institutional normality that has returned in its first year as president of Catalonia. “I am not going to protect any linguistic controversy. We are in Catalonia, it seems normal that whoever wants to speak in Catalan. The problem is not in Catalan, Galician, Basque or Spanish, the problem is in whom he uses the language as an exclusive weapon,” the president of Madrid has settled after the controversy. Lehendakari, Imanol Pradales (PNV). Before, Illa has intervened entirely in Catalan, without Ayuso rising from the site. Presidents of the PP as the Galician Alfonso Rueda have spoken a few seconds in the co -official language of his community at the first conference of presidents in which the other languages could be used, apart from the Castilian, which the Constitution recognizes in part of the country. García-Page himself has used the pinganillo normally.
“Illa is good for Catalonia and the whole of Spain, he is trying to establish common sense. I will not match him in some things, but Illa behaves with national mentality, of Spain. And for example he does not use Catalan as a throwing weapon,” he said. Illa, which in addition to president He is the first secretary of the PSC, agreed singular financing with ERC that he put on alert last summer to García-Page and other barons; Since then, Illa’s guarantees that it does not pretend a privileged treatment have calmed the spirits, although the slightest spark could make hostilities between socialist federations again.
The lack of advances in financing is the point that has most defrauded García-Page, who presides over one of the communities most penalized by the current model, which was approved in 2009 and all the presidents, whether they are the party, consider obsolete. “I am not naive, I was not looking for a vote but at least one dialectical commitment and there has been none despite the fact that we have been late for 11 years,” said the president of Castilla-La Mancha, who has revealed that he has requested twice, without success, that the autonomous communities have a calendar for the future financing model. “The left cannot make a privilege approach: it cannot be that the ones who have the most complain. Those who have the most. Wealth is of all Spaniards, the territories do not pay taxes or are the owners of the wealth of a territory and I will not consent to the national wealth is chopped in 17 economies as if they were looking for privileges,” he said.
“This meeting has a positive that has been held in Barcelona and that the president of Catalonia not only attends and that he accepts that he is celebrated in his community … in itself that normality has a high political value but beyond the photo, which is more important than on other occasions, the feeling that I take is that any Span Agreements, ”he has said goodbye.
