PP and Vox, the two parties that will govern the Valencian Community in coalition, have already registered in Les Corts the constitution of their parliamentary groups. The first to do so were those of Abascal who keep Ana Vega as spokesperson and place David Muñoz and Joaquín Marín Alés as deputies. Yesterday the popular ones did it who, as planned, left the reins of the group in the hands of Miguel Barrachina (director of the last campaign and one of the negotiators of the pact with Vox).
The trustee, with experience in Congress and in Les Corts, will be assisted by three deputies who are making their debut in the Valencian Parliament: Juan Francisco Pérez Llorca (from Carlos Mazón’s hard core); the senator Salomé Pradas and the ex-mayor of Benetússer, Laura Chuliá.
Once the groups that will support the future government have been constituted, those of the opposition need to be confirmed and tasks distributed. A circumstance that is not trivial, since if the deadlines are rushed (there is until July 6 to do it legally), the inauguration of Mazón would already be held in the last week of the general campaign (unless it was forced a delay or a small advance). However, the idea of ??the PP is that the deadlines can be expedited, that PSPV and Compromís form their groups and the Mesa de Les Corts (with a conservative majority) could locate the plenary session the week before.
The proximity of the elections means that the parties have turned the investiture date into a game of chess based on what they consider can benefit them the most.
Along these lines, the PP Ombudsman, Miguel Barrachina, asked the groups that have not yet been formed to do so “urgently so as not to delay the change requested by the Valencians any longer.” “If the PP group, which is the largest, has been able to collect 40 signatures and deliver them, it makes no sense for PSPV and Compromís to delay. Everything that happens tomorrow will be intentionally delaying the inauguration of Carlos Mazón as President of the Generalitat ”, he indicated.
Addressing the PSPV more than Compromís, Barrachina
He urged the Socialists to “shorten the deadlines so that the change, which the Valencians called for democratically and broadly, can take place as soon as possible.” “Puig must assume that he has lost the elections and must give way,” he said.
And it is that while the future spokesman for Compromís, Joan Baldoví, pointed out yesterday in statements to À Punt that his group would be constituted on Monday (without rushing the deadline until Thursday 6), the Socialists do not seem to be in a great hurry to do so. Yesterday, in the face of Mazón’s complaints that he was accused of “being glued to the chair with Loctite”, Puig responded that the Socialists will comply with the regulations “scrupulously and democratically, without altering the democratic rules as Mr. Mazón has done”. That is to say, it does not seem that they have too much courage to expedite the deadlines.
The Socialists believe that the photo of Mazón with Vox days before the vote can benefit them.
From the PP it was explained yesterday that if the PSPV speeds up the deadlines until the 6th, the investiture could begin the week of the 17th; on July 23 are the elections. Precisely, this exceptional circumstance could speed up the deadlines a bit and the Table could advance it to the end of the previous one, but the PP has not just seen it because claiming this exceptionality to gain just a few days does not seem very profitable.
For this reason, everything seems to be at the expense of the decision that Puig makes, although the pressure may increase, especially if Compromís does not support his strategy.
