In the ranks of the PSPV there is a feeling that a political “pincer” is being formed against them between the PP and Compromís on issues such as regional financing or other issues on the Valencian agenda. Matters in which popular and Valencian supporters would be trying, according to the socialists, to “put their finger on the sore spot of the Spanish Government”, an executive of which the leader of the PSPV, Diana Morant, is a member.
A “clamp” that was staged yesterday with the agreement of popular and Valencian supporters to support a Transacted Non-Law Proposition, PNL, that requires the Government to implement a leveling fund until regional financing is reformed and the historical debt is recognized. . Proposal that has had the PSPV and Vox vote against. Last Wednesday, the socialist deputy spokesperson Toni Gaspar assessed that this was a “NLP trap” that only wants to “put the finger in the eye of Pedro Sánchez’s Government.”
But to this proposal is added the desire expressed yesterday by Carlos Mazón in the control session at the Consell in Les Corts to meet shortly with Joan Baldoví to address the Compromís Fair Treatment Law proposal that aims to question the lack of response from the Government Spanish to Valencian grievances not only in financing. Mazón thanked Baldoví for being willing to meet with him “after eleven months” and stated that he will work to take “a step forward” for said law. Or also the support of the Ombudsman of the Valencian coalition for the Universal Accessibility Law after the meeting held with the vice president Susana Camarero. “I make a pact with the devil if it is for the benefit of the five million Valencians,” Baldoví defended yesterday, expressing his “I don’t understand” the fact that the PSPV voted against the proposal for the equalization fund.
Baldoví, asked about the socialist refusal to support the demand for a leveling fund, pointed out that both the PP and the PSPV “repeat this scheme” as they govern in Madrid. “I haven’t understood it, I haven’t understood it because now, well, it was NLP. They have been able to vote, as they have voted, for three PNLs in favor of debt forgiveness, for a new financing system or for a leveling fund.” At the same time, he expressed his desire that the PSPV end up supporting his law. “I am usually an optimist, but seeing what the PSOE has voted repeatedly in these Cortes, man, I think it would be a disappointment for many Valencians to see that a representative of Valencians is against voting in Madrid” he warned. And he added that “I would be a little embarrassed to vote against things that five million Valencians believe are absolutely fair and normal.”
From the ranks of the PP it was secretly accepted that there is harmony with Compromís to “show that the Government is not responding to the needs of Valencians”, in reference to the demand for a leveling fund. A criterion that responds to the position of the Valencians, who are determined to press the demand for a greater response from the Government to the needs of the “Valencian agenda”. The PP and Compromís share interests in this area.
Faced with this framework of political action, the PSPV-PSOE ombudsman, José Muñoz, delved yesterday into the cultural and ideological combat against the advance of the extreme right in Europe. He asked Mazón that “his invitations to dialogue become facts” and urged him “to condemn the attacks that the extreme right is promoting against politicians in Europe,” as the socialists request in an institutional declaration.
Muñoz reproached Mazón for having become “the most radical president of the PP in Spain”, since “now being an abuser in the Valencian Community is a relief”, thanks to the Minister of Justice, Elisa Núñez (Vox), who “promotes foundation for abused men.
He demanded that he “guarantee” that said foundation “will not receive any type of subsidy or public resources” from the Comunitat, and that he urge his party colleague and mayor of Valencia, María José Catalá, to dismiss the Vox mayor. Cecilia Herrero, for her messages to the former Podemos deputy in the Community of Madrid Serigne Mbayé, who the Prosecutor’s Office is already investigating for a possible hate crime.
“Their virtual reality is that we are against women, we are Francoists, we are fascists, we are in favor of violence,” responded Mazón, who asked the socialists to “help” the Consell to “tell Diana Morant to enable finally to the non-EU doctors that we need.”
