The veto of the CUP leaves the Government’s budgets in the hands of the ‘commons’

Plan b overrides plan a. The slam of the CUP to the Government budgets, leave the ‘common‘in the preferred partner’s seat. The anti-capitalists ratified this Saturday their amendment to the whole and they broke, de facto, the negotiation. The only possible way to save the first processing of the accounts in the hemicycle this Monday passes through the purple, since the PSC remains outside the plans of the Executiu.

The anti-capitalists remained in what was said despite the latest offer from the Government and the open parliamentary coordinator -with representation of all the organizations of the Cupera candidacy-, meeting in Santa Perpètua de Mogoda (Barcelona), ratified the amendment, validating the voting of the bases of last Monday before the “insufficient” advances of the Government throughout the week. The bases then decided with 63% to veto the accounts without this implying interrupting the negotiations, an extreme that was shared by 68%. Up to 95% then valued that what was on the table was insufficient to facilitate them.

The deputy Eulàlia Reguant justified the positioning before the “suspense” of the ‘president’ Pere Aragonès in compliance with the investiture pact and again demanded a referendum. The latest offer from the Government contemplated the creation of a working group for “the new attack on the State in the form of a referendum” -which would start at the beginning of 2022 to six bands, parties and entities-, limited to “the first half of the 2023 & rdquor; The evaluation of the dialogue table, raised the item for housing to 1,000 million euros based on income and provided for the deployment of the taxes provided for in the climate change law, starting with cruises in 2022 and with activities that generate greenhouse gases in 2023. It did not include news regarding macro-projects or fiscal matters. Party sources regretted having entered the field of “renegotiating the investiture agreement” which, for the CUP, was “insufficient” after the 14-F elections.

And the pro-independence majority?

The veto of the CUP intensified the first friction between the partners in the Government, and it is that the post-convergence is reluctant to agree with the ‘commons’ and the Republicans to do the same with the PSC. The general secretary of Junts, Jordi Sànchez, raised the tone against Esquerra -on account of the other budgets, the generals of the State- for “giving their votes to the PSOE & rdquor; to continue in Moncloa and said that in their ranks they already know what is the “inheritance of the tripartite and who made it & rdquor ;.

In a ceremony in Badalona, ​​he blurted out that “while some make it appear that they are looking for quotas for the audiovisual law, others guarantee essential resources for the country’s health & rdquor; referring to the amendment that his party sneaked to allocate more funds to health. “If this is what our people in Madrid have done with four deputies, someone who is nervous wants to call it ‘sociovergence’, call it what you want & rdquor ;, he sentenced, with a direct dart at the Republican leadership.

Of course, he made it clear that the alliance in Catalonia is still alive: “That no one has wet dreams of voting or abstaining in the budgets thinking that it will undo the independence majority & rdquor;. He said it in clear reference to Salvador Illa, but also to Jéssica Albiach, who shortly before had defended the amendment to all the accounts as a symbol that his party “has not become a comparsa & rdquor; of majorities that they consider obsolete, alluding to the independence movement. Albiach extended his hand again to continue negotiating the accounts, but he did so paraphrasing the ‘or budgets or budgets’ of the ‘Minister’ of Economy, Jaume Giró –Which, in turn, emulated the ‘or referendum or referendum’ of the ‘expresident’ Carles Puigdemont– with an “or transformation or transformation & rdquor ;. “We are not resigned, but no blank checks & rdquor ;, riveted at the conclave held in Barcelona.
