“It is unheard of that you approve the budgets and they execute you one year and another 35% of the investment when governance depends on your votes.” In this way, Junts per Catalunya has pointed out this Friday to Esquerra Republicana for the breaches of the central government with the investments in Rodalies and in terms of infrastructure. In these terms, the president of the national education council and ex-minister of Territory and Sustainability, Josep Rull, expressed himself in an act in Mataró next to the Renfe railway station in the capital of Maresme.
“We want to change the model not to do what Adif does, but to place the Rodalies system at a level of excellence and quality. We do not want independence to do the same as the Spanish State”, the ex-minister assured. that he appears in the pools to be a Junts candidate in the next elections to the Parliament.
Rull has also blamed ERC for now asking for a sovereignist common front for the transfer of Rodalies when in the last four years they have not claimed it, while recalling that there has already been a transfer of the service, but not of the money necessary to operate and infrastructure. In this sense, the leader has also made the Republicans ugly by what he considers a lack of coherence.
The post-convergent candidate for the 23-J elections, Míriam Nogueras, in turn, has accused the Republicans of only denouncing the problems of the Catalan Renfe commuter network when there is an electoral campaign. “What some have been denouncing for a few hours, that is, they do it in the campaign, we have been denouncing and working on it for years,” said Nogueras, who also regretted that not a single kilometer of railway tracks or urban tunnels have been built in Catalonia. a fact that he has compared with the situation in Madrid.
“It makes no sense to denounce that the Government does not pay and to approve the general state budget every year,” Nogueras concluded, in relation to the Republicans. “We will fight every penny and every competition so that the Catalans have the dignified services they deserve”, concluded the post-convergent leader in Madrid. “Enough of being teased and stealing our time,” she has sentenced.
In this campaign, the leader of JxCat in Madrid denounces the systematic breaches of the State in this section. She points out that of all that Mariano Rajoy promised for Rodalies, only 6% was executed; of what José Luís Rodríguez Zapatero promised to invest, 14%; and that according to a report from the Barcelona Chamber of Commerce, the same result in the last 15 years and with the Government of PSOE and Unidas Podemos of every 100 euros provided for in Renfe and Adif in Catalunya only 24 have arrived, while in Madrid they invested 153 euros.
