It gives blessed glory to listen to Joan Baldoví about the red lines of the PP after the agreement in the Valencian Community with Vox for the composition of the future government of the Generalitat. ‘Baldo’ is always presented as a teacher, he worked as a school teacher. He does so, although he has spent more than half his life in politics, which has allowed him to perfectly understand the game of legitimacy and pacts.
The circumstantial leader of Compromís was dispatched last Tuesday in these terms on a national television after Carlos Mazón’s ‘checkmate’: “If a party, has been able to put a candidate convicted of violence against women and now he is going to put him as a candidate for congress and a party like the PP is capable of whitewashing this, it is what was already written, the PP wants to reach power at all costs and has no red line”.
Curious to hear how Baldoví speaks of red lines who, deep down, questioned the legitimacy of the pact between the PP and Vox. But this is the same person who, from his seat as deputy for four years, has voted together with Bildu in favor of almost everything that Pedro Sánchez has put before him, including some laws, when it was already known that Bildu included murderers on his lists. convicted of terrorism, and there was no problem in this case in siding with the heirs of ETA. Was this legit for him? Is this alliance legitimate in a democracy?
I don’t know where Joan Baldoví put the ‘red line’ the day he voted in favor of the ‘Only yes is yes’ law, which at this time has benefited more than 1,000 sexual offenders and put a hundred rapists on the street. I don’t know where the line of humanity is, beyond colors, when with those figures that are more embarrassing than scary, the professor voted against his modification. Was his position legitimate? In both cases, Compromís sided with Bildu.
But since we are talking about ‘red lines’ and legitimacy, I think the time has come to explain where his position was when he appeared next to Mónica Oltra, even dancing to the music, 24 hours after the ex-vice president was imputed. for the management in his department of the case of sexual abuse proven in two sentences to a minor supervised by Oltra’s husband. Was everything said legitimate? There were no red lines? Is it legitimate that Mazón now closes a pact when they have not given him room from the left for another option? Those are the questions, for which Baldoví had an answer, for others he did not or, in short, he denies that legitimacy.
