Pedro Sánchez has demonstrated on many occasions his capacity for reinvention. To adapt to circumstances, assume contradictions and change course to better reorient towards their goals. His political biography is marked by rudder changes, both in the opposition and in the organic life of the PSOE and during the five years he has been in charge of the Government. However, after the debacle of 28-M and the subsequent decision to advance the general elections to 23-J, the shift in his campaign strategy and speech makes the Sánchez of just a few weeks ago unrecognizable. A transformism that implies an attempt to reset the current legislature as far as the policy of pacts is concerned, releasing ballast from his parliamentary allies and putting an end to the staged tandem with Yolanda Díaz, but also denying certain policies of his partners, such as the feminist line of the Ministry of Equality, with which she always closed ranks, or look more to the center than to the left.

The design of the campaign for 23-J, in addition, little or nothing resembles that of the municipal and regional campaigns. Sánchez has left the rallies behind to plan a road show around the sets, including those of the media considered less sympathetic and that had not set foot in years, to bring a message of greater moderation to this type of audience.. Address more to the voters of the PSOE in 2019 who are now inclined to choose another ballot or to stay at home, than to reinforce the militant and supporter. From shying away from the media, or limiting interviews to a few, to being overexposed both in informational spaces and in the so-called infotainment. Likewise, he has opted for face-to-face debates, which he refused to hold in the previous general campaign, being in a position of strength, and for focusing the electoral contest in a bipartisan key..

The necessary crutch to the left of the PSOE, on which Moncloa placed its hopes before 28-M to fish in the fishing ground of demobilized progressive voters and thus join forces to re-edit the coalition, is now yet another ballast. In the best of cases, it is ignored, now burying the electoral ticket with the second vice president who was staged, with a view to the generals, in the vote of no confidence of Vox. just three months ago. At worst, an amendment is made to the entirety, as in the case of Irene Montero.

Sánchez was always the main supporter in the Government of the policies of the purple leader, choosing to break the tie in her favor for laws, such as the trans, which she maintained with the then first vice president, Carmen Calvo. Even with the law of only yes is yes, when the first reviews of convicted sexual offenders began to be made public in November, he asked his followers to close ranks with Montero after some socialist minister rushed to demand his reform. His maxim was to keep the coalition together and move the focus away from the conflict over the feminist flag.

Now, Sánchez has not only wanted to highlight his “public and notorious” differences with the Podemos leader over laws such as the only yes is yes, but he has even made an amendment to his “confrontational feminism” in its entirety.. Up to the point of censoring her for giving “arguments to these political leaders”, in reference to Vox's denial of gender violence. Of course, after assuring last Monday in an interview on Onda Cero that the speeches by the Minister of Equality had made his friends, men between 40 and 50, feel “uncomfortable”, the next day he recognized in another interview on La Sexta (El Intermedio) that this conclusion was derived from “demoscopy studies”. The conclusion was that it had alienated male voters and also women.

The conversion of Sánchez after 28-M is mainly nourished from this demographic reading. From the diagnosis of the wear and tear of its policy of pacts or some of the measures carried out by the coalition. As the IMOP-Insights survey for El Confidencial, analyzed by Ignacio Varela, collected this Monday, the four reasons for rejection most cited by former PSOE voters are the management of Pedro Sánchez (21%), the pacts (12%), the radicalization to the left (10%) and the breach of promises (10%).

The same analysis based on the aforementioned survey puts figures on the transfer of voters for 23-J. Of the 2.8 million people who gave their vote to the PSOE in 2019 and, for now, show no intention of repeating it, 21% favor another party, 8% abstain or cast a blank or null vote and one 13% do not know or do not answer. The net transfer to the PP is estimated at around 600,000 votes, but there are also leaks between blocks towards Vox.

The other great turn of Sánchez with respect to 28-M and the current legislature with the first coalition government since the return of democracy is the direct appeal to the useful vote. To concentrate the progressive support in the ballot of the fist and the rose. A reset of the coalition government, which would also contribute, according to surveys, to reducing the support of the socialists at the polls. Only in the aforementioned interview in El Intermedio, did Sánchez show his desire to govern in the future with Sumar.

“A Pre-Election Partner”

A message for a certain type of public, which is assumed to be more progressive, but which did not last long due to the discomfort expressed in Ferraz by the clamp of Díaz with Alberto Núñez Feijóo regarding the format proposed for the electoral debates. The leader of the populars prioritized a debate of three instead of two if Sumar's candidate preferred this format so as not to be left out. Díaz immediately picked up the glove and alarm bells went off in Ferraz, fearing that the “delay strategy” and entanglements in the Genoa counterproposal were intended to prevent a face-to-face meeting from finally taking place..

Within the framework of this conversion of the Sánchez after 28-M, other contradictions that have emerged coinciding this Wednesday with the first measures of the program announced by the PSOE seem more anecdotal. The proposal to increase maternity and paternity leave by one month, from the current 16 weeks to 20, was vetoed by the socialist wing of the Ministry of Social Rights, headed by the general secretary of Podemos, Ione Belarra.

From this department, they remember that their initial proposal for the family law already included the extension of maternity / paternity leave up to six months. An increase that would be implemented gradually until 2026. However, then the PSOE did not allow it and finally the Council of Ministers was taken without this measure, which the Socialists now recover in their program. One more contradiction, perhaps minor, although the response through a tweet from the Minister of Social Rights gives an account of the background current: “I wish I had governed with this pre-electoral partner”.

In the general elections of 2015 and 2016, multipartyism was installed in Spain. Podemos and Ciudadanos emerged. In the Andalusian regional elections of 2018, Vox emerged, which in the legislative elections of November 2019 obtained 52 seats, the third political force. The party headed by Albert Rivera has collapsed and that of Iglesias is about to do so, diluted in that precarious artifact that is Sumar.

Neither orange nor purple knew how to diagnose the reason for their electoral support and, consequently, neither played their true role on the political board. Their leaders believed that they had been born with a hegemonic vocation and were confused because the reality in both cases was that the collective intelligence of the electorate positioned them as complementary to the two great parties —PSOE and PP— to balance them and force them to carry out an exercise of internal regeneration and of ideological reformulation, but not to replace them. By ignoring their mission, the citizens have not followed the purposes of their leaders and have punished them with the virtual disappearance.

Vox error could be the same. If, as it seems, they are unaware that the support they obtain at the polls does not imply a challenge to replace the policies of the Popular Party, their leaders would be seriously mistaken.. They are already doing it by promoting an electoral repetition in Extremadura, after having handed over to the PSOE the presidency of the autonomous Chamber that María Guardiola, the leader of the PP, offered to those of Abascal, in addition to another position on the regional Parliament Board and the guarantee of a senator of autonomous designation. Being the equation so favorable for the PP (28 seats) with respect to Vox (five seats), the compensation for the minority is more than acceptable.

Isabel Díaz Ayuso, as now the popular leader of Extremadura, although in other coordinates, also offered Vox and its leader Rocío Monasterio reasonable compensation to support the latest regional budget. They did not accept them and the consequence was that in the elections on May 28, the PP obtained an absolute majority (70 seats) while Vox, now irrelevant, lost two seats in the Vallecas Assembly (it went from 13 to 11).. Yesterday, the woman from Madrid gave her investiture speech for which, for the first time, she will not depend on anyone outside her parliamentary group.

If at the command of Vox you come to believe that your electorate celebrates that as a result of any response to the PP's offer, a socialist has risen to the presidency of the Parliament of Extremadura and that Guillermo Fernández Vara is running for a new investiture, it is because they are unaware of the sociological reality of its voters and, in general, of the Spanish right. Those of Vox seem as ignorant of the pulse of that social sector as Rivera and Arrimadas, when the first wanted to surpass the PP and the second clandestinely censor the president of the Region of Murcia with the PSOE, a stratagem that ended up sinking Ciudadanos.

Vox and the PP, which has emboldened him, have to distinguish between agreeing and giving in. The first implies demanding certain policies from each other and putting aside those others in which there is no agreement. To give in is to renounce one's own convictions and give positions of advantage to the interlocutor.. And if for Vox there are aspects that cannot be declined, they are also for the PP. With the difference that the dimension of the blues has no comparison with that of the greens. And above both there is a national and international regulation that establishes non-derogable requirements (laws that will not be altered and international agreements that bind the State)..

The example of a bad system of political agreements is that of Pedro Sánchez with Pablo Iglesias. The PSOE did not agree, but gave in. Sánchez did not agree with Podemos, for example, the law of only yes is yes, but he gave in on that and other projects and proposals. Now, the President of the Government goes through the media distancing himself from decisions shared with Podemos that he should never have assumed. He also distances himself from Bildu, despite the fact that with the coalition they approved the general state budget, the two unfortunate reforms of the Penal Code, the unnecessary law of democratic memory and, among others, the housing law.

Maria Guardiola's speech is correct. Because power always has a price, but not just any price, because when it is burdensome to excess, the reeds become spears, as is happening to the PSOE general secretary. Hence, repeating elections in Extremadura —a way of losing in order to win— would be with the highest probability the worst hypothesis for Vox, while for the popular ones it would consist of a risk, without a doubt, but also with probabilities of the greatest success.. For one reason: Vox would not leave the voters of the broad spectrum of the right any other alternative to evict the coalition of the PSOE and Unidas Podemos, and, therefore, Pedro Sánchez, than to turn to the useful vote for the Popular Party. For the Spanish right, the Swedish model (the radical has not entered the Government, but supports it) would be a necessary reference, given the correlation of forces between them (Notebook of October 20, 2022).

Maritime Rescue has rescued this Wednesday the 51 North African occupants of a boat when it was about seven miles from Roque del Este, an islet located north of Lanzarote.

According to the state agency, the Guardamar Polimnia went to the place and intercepted the migrants around 9:30 a.m. (local time) to proceed with their transfer to the La Cebolla Dock, in Arrecife.

There the usual health device in these cases made up of the Red Cross and the Canary Islands Emergency Service (SUC) was waiting, which assisted the migrants, all in apparent good health.

A plane requested an emergency landing at the Barcelona-El Prat Airport this Monday morning when a passenger went into labor.

The ship was heading to Amsterdam (Netherlands) from Lagos (Nigeria) and landed in Barcelona around 5 o'clock, the Civil Guard reported in a statement on Wednesday.

The emergency services assisted the mother on the same plane and later transferred her along with the baby to the Sant Joan de Déu Hospital, where both are recovering “favourably”.

Alberto Núñez Feijóo sees the veto that María Guardiola has placed on Vox in Extremadura as compatible with the coalition government that Carlos Mazón has agreed to in the Valencian Community. The popular leader has blessed the order of his baroness from Extremadura, who is on his way to leading the community to an electoral repetition because, he assures, the demands of Vox in Mérida are “disproportionate”. “The result of Valencia is not the same as that of Extremadura”, the Galician has defended after participating in an act of the think tank that he has promoted to put together the speech of his party in his attempt to reach Moncloa.

The thesis that Núñez Feijóo has defended is purely numerical. The 8% that Vox achieved in the regional governments of Extremadura is the “most modest result” achieved by those of Santiago Abascal on May 28. In the Valencian Community, the percentage rises to 12%, but the rush there also had to do with the need for the ultra-conservative party to include its candidate, Carlos Flores Juberías, in the general lists after being vetoed by the PP due to his conviction for gender violence. While this is happening, the socialist Guillermo Fernández Vara, who was the candidate with the most votes, has announced his intention to stand for investiture, something he can do thanks to the fact that the socialists control the Presidency of the legislature thanks to the breakup of PP and Vox.

“It is not reasonable that he intends to preside over the Assembly, have more representatives than the PP in the Table and enter the Government”, the president of the PP has abounded, who has focused on the distance between PP and Vox in the Meritense chamber. The popular ones achieved 38% of the votes and 28 seats compared to 8% for Vox and the five regional deputies in which that percentage translates. “It did not make sense”, Núñez Feijóo has abounded, to attend to Vox's requests, although at no time has the Galician mentioned the arguments used by María Guardiola to reject the preferred partners of the PP in the rest of the communities: the denial of violence macho, his bet on immigration and the rejection of policies in defense of the LGTBI collective.

“It has been chosen correctly”, Núñez Feijóo has settled to bless this ambivalence. And it is not the first time it happens. In the PP they have been determined for months to make it clear that within the party there are different ways of seeing politics. The usual dichotomy was that represented by Juanma Moreno, with that more moderate profile, and Isabel Díaz Ayuso, in the most vehement version of the PP. The regional and municipal elections of May 28 changed the axis of this discourse and now it is Guardiola who is on one side, and Mazón, on the other, along with Marga Prohens from the Balearic Islands.. We must not forget that in Palma they have also agreed with Vox so that a leader of the ultra party is the one who presides over the Parliament of the islands.

Alberto Núñez Feijóo has assured in his speech that the regional leaders must be the ones who lead the negotiations and avoid an “invasion of national positions” that render the talks that take place at the regional level without effect. This has not been entirely the case, for example, in the investiture of the socialist Jaume Collboni in the Barcelona City Council, which was forged with conversations between Genoa and Ferraz. But Guardiola's story in Extremadura allows the Galician to get rid of the poster that they place on him in the PSOE with his pacts with Vox in some 140 town halls, to which must be added the autonomous pacts.

In this context, the popular leader has chosen to turn his speech towards the economy at the meeting of the Fundación Reformismo 21 chaired by the former Minister of Employment Fátima Báñez. At the event in Madrid, the leader of the PP criticized the “triumphalism” of the central government in economic matters. “The average Spaniard has practically the same income as 15 years ago,” said Núñez Feijóo, who has warned against this stagnation. The Galician has defended that there are EU countries with a wealth “well below” that of Spain that will exceed the country's GDP in the coming years. This is the case, he said, of Hungary, Croatia or Poland. This, in addition, will cause the richest countries “to move further away”.

The greyish sky, illuminated by an electrical storm, with which Malaga woke up seemed to herald the disappointment that hours later hung over the city. Some 1,700 kilometers away, in Paris, France, the city's hopes of becoming the site of the 2027 International Exposition with the theme The Urban Age: Towards the Sustainable City have evaporated.. A total of 11 votes from the delegates of the 172nd assembly of the Bureau International des Expositions (BIE) have helped Belgrade (Serbia) to win an event in which the capital of Malaga had projected part of its immediate development.

The day started with the Spanish delegation starting the carousel of interventions of the five candidacies. It had exceeded the estimated time for Malaga to begin exposing its project, when the journalist María Casado appeared on the stage of the Palais des Congrès. The master of ceremony was inserting comments about the potential of the city between the speeches of the personalities who defended the proposal. The first, as planned, the mayor of Malaga, Francisco de la Torre.

The councilor stressed the current importance of sustainability and the need for it to be an element on which the development of cities should pivot, to then point out some of the strengths of Malaga's candidacy. “It is a place capable of welcoming millions of visitors, with an airport connected to 140 destinations, security, a mild climate and an intense cultural life”.

A city “capable of making those who visit it happy” and that aspires to become a “sustainability laboratory,” added the president of the Provincial Council, Francisco Salado, who wanted to reaffirm the union around the candidacy when he assured that the other 102 municipalities in the province have endorsed it.

In this sense, the president of the Junta de Andalucía, Juanma Moreno, stated that Expo 2027 is a “great shared dream” and “strongly” pleaded for the vote of the BIE delegates because “we are prepared and very excited”. The regional leader delved into the idea expressed by De la Torre and remarked that environmental responses must be sought “at a critical moment for all humanity”. It is, as he explained, the “survival of the planet” and the need to continue looking for formulas to “mitigate the effects of climate change”..

The Minister of Foreign Affairs, European Union and Cooperation, José Manuel Albares, addressed the voters in perfect French with which he glossed over the Phoenician, Arab and Roman origins of a city that in recent years has become “a place of life” for people from all over the world and which today is a benchmark in terms of innovation and culture. “We believe that it is the best place to seek together solutions to the enormous challenge of sustainability that all cities in the world face”.

Congratulations Belgrade. Thanks to all our rivals: an honor to compete with them. And many thanks to those who have worked hard and well for the candidacy of #Málaga for months, for years. We have done a huge job that will be useful for the city @malaga_2027 FTP https://t.co/RnYIlhVnTn

– Paco de la Torre (@pacodelatorrep) June 21, 2023

The consultant for the Malaga candidacy, Carmen Bueno, remarked that experts from all over the world agree on the urgency of managing the growth of cities in a sustainable manner; while the general director, Jerónimo Blasco, focused on explaining the characteristics of the venue that would host the International Exposition and recalled that it will have green spaces, restaurant areas and reliefs adapted to the climate and new technologies. The two technicians addressed the auditorium in English and French.

The Malaga project, which was presented with a video combining images of the city with a virtual reality recreation of the exhibition center, had the support of Pau Gasol, actress Paz Vega and soccer player Sergio Ramos. The presentation closed with a performance by Luz Casal in which she wanted to make a “declaration of love” to Malaga by performing live a fragment of A Perfect Place, the soundtrack of the announcement of the City Council's tourism promotion campaign..

Francisco de la Torre, once the presentations of the five aspiring candidacies had concluded, emphasized the “unity of action” woven by all the administrations around Malaga. But it could not be. After 1:30 p.m., it was known that Belgrade would organize the desired event. The Malaga candidacy passed the first, second and third round of votes, but only obtained 70 supports, compared to the 81 achieved by the Serbian proposal. Bariloche (Argentina), Minnesota (USA), Phuket (Thailand) have also lost in this race.

Subsequently, he used his Twitter account to thank all “our rivals”: “An honor to compete with them”. “Thank you very much to those who have worked hard and well for Malaga's candidacy for months, years. We have done an enormous job that will be useful for the city,” he said..

A message from a girl under the age of 12 in the WhatsApp chat she had with her schoolmates has set off all the alarms in Malaga. According to Diario Sur, the young woman wrote: “Who has ever thought of committing suicide?”. Another student told the teacher and they both had a conversation in which sexual abuse came to light that, as proven in the sentence, was also suffered by two other girls with whom she lived in a shared apartment in Malaga. The author, stepfather of one of them, has been sentenced to 18 years in prison.

The facts date back to 2016 and lasted until 2019, which was when the teacher uncovered the case. The girls were then between 4 and 10 years old.. The now convicted, 55-year-old, lived in the house with his partner, who was the owner of the rental contract for the property. She had a daughter from a previous relationship and two others in common. As for the other two minors, whom it has been proven that this man also abused, they were the daughters of a mother who was sublet a room in the house and of a second woman, who worked in Lorca (Murcia), to whom that they also rented another room in the same house.

The sentence considers it proven that the man touched one of them “on multiple occasions”, causing her vaginal lesions, while asking her “not to tell anyone anything.”. It is also considered proven that, in the summer of 2016 or 2017, the defendant took the three minors to a room, ordered them to take off their clothes and groped them “in succession”, asking them not to reveal anything about what happened..

Restraining order

The case was judged on May 10 in the First Section of the Provincial Court of Malaga. The Prosecutor's Office requested a 20-year prison sentence for the defendant.. For his part, the defendant's defense denied the facts that were attributed to him and requested the free acquittal. After listening to the parties, the court concluded that, as established by jurisprudence, the statement of two of the minors was sufficient proof of prosecution to undermine the presumption of innocence, since their testimonies had been considered credible in the expert report prepared by the court. Institute of Legal Medicine (IML) of Malaga.

The defense used contradictions between two of the minors regarding the dates on which the abuses had occurred. Even so, according to the expert psychologists, “these contradictions are logical and do not mean that the minors were lying”, because at these ages it is difficult to contextualize the times and in a situation of risk and pressure, “these contradictions are possible due to psychological saturation “who suffered. To the sentence must be added a restraining order of 20 and another 14 years with respect to the other two minors. In addition, it establishes compensation for both of 30,000 and 5,000 euros, respectively. The ruling, however, is still appealable..

The Community of Madrid will maintain until the end of the year the reduction of the transport pass up to 60%. This was announced this Wednesday by Isabel Díaz Ayuso during the investiture debate in the Assembly, along with other measures that will mark her government action for the next four years. This action was one of the main demands of the users, with the next June 30 as the deadline.

Transport has been one of the aspects pointed out by the acting regional president during her speech. “I announce that we are going to extend this reduction of 60% in the price of monthly public transport passes and 50% of multi-trip tickets to 50% until the end of the year,” said Ayuso.. According to the calculations of the regional Executive, this measure will benefit a total of 7 million people from Madrid, with a monthly saving of 30 million euros at a general level. The single Metro ticket will also continue at a cost of 1.5 euros, regardless of the number of stations to be traveled.

The acting president of the Community of Madrid reiterated the idea of simplifying the map of the region into only two rates. As detailed during his speech, this measure is estimated to mean savings of up to 180 euros per year for residents of mountain towns such as El Atazar, Bustarviejo, Cercedilla or Colmenar de Oreja. Free public transport for people with a degree of disability equal to or greater than 65% will also be applied..

Clash with the Government for the reduction of the subscription

On September 1, 2022, the reduction with which the central Executive intended to alleviate the effects of the economic crisis began. Initially it was a 30% decrease subsidized by the State that was finally increased by 20% more by investing the money that the Community stopped paying for free rail.

Before the end of the year, the central government approved an extension of the 30% discount for public transport in autonomous communities for the first half of 2023, only for autonomous communities that commit to extending the discount to 50% of the price.

Given this, in the last regional Government Council of the year, the Executive of Isabel Díaz Ayuso agreed to maintain the 50% discount on the public transport subscription, which the central Executive has requested, in January and increase it to 60% since February.

On June 12, when asked if this measure would be extended, Ayuso indicated that he was waiting for the central government to make the decision.. “We will make a decision about the price of transport when the Government does, taking into account that this was a matter of two,” he summarized then.

Isabel Díaz Ayuso has detailed throughout her speech numerous announcements in different matters. As this newspaper reported, the Community of Madrid will now have a new Digitization Department, with the aim of turning the region into an international benchmark for new technologies in southern Europe.. Along the line of tax cuts, the popular leader has also announced a 50% discount on gift and inheritance tax between uncles and nephews, in addition to an order to the 115 town halls governed by the PP to lower the capital gains tax municipal.

Summer is just around the corner and the accommodations and hotels in Cádiz are about to hang the full sign. Which means that this summer, the beaches will be overflowing again. This is where a crucial figure comes in to guarantee that the beach days go by normally. It's about the lifeguards.

With the intention of improving and reinforcing this rescue service for the summer of 2023, the portal of the Andalusian Employment Service (SAE) has published an announcement to cover eight lifeguard positions for the beaches of Cádiz capital. The selection process should begin in the next few days, since the incorporation of the offer is from July 1.

For this position, it will be mandatory to have an aquatic lifesaving qualification. The workday of this job is full-time for two months with a salary of 1,260 euros per month. The category is surveillance/services and the subcategory belongs to the surveillance group/sworn guards. Likewise, the professional level of the contract will be assistants, assistants and specialists.

Municipal service since 2016

Those interested in participating in this selection process must register as a job seeker. In turn, personal data must match the requirements of the public offer.

It must be remembered that the Cádiz City Council approved in 2016 the inclusion in the budget of the municipalization of rescue and first aid services. Said municipalization meant a change in the working conditions of the workforce, as well as the renewal of material such as the boats used on the beaches to carry out surveillance work.

Isabel Díaz Ayuso has launched the new legislature in the same way that the previous one ended: the attack against Pedro Sánchez. The acting president of the Community of Madrid, who also reeled off a battery of announcements and measures for the next four years, took advantage of the investiture debate in the Assembly to mark territory against the central government with the regional Executive as a counterweight and as a symptom of what is to come. An institutional intervention with some rallies overtones one month before the general elections of 23-J. “Change is unstoppable,” he stressed.

Ayuso's first intervention before the Madrid Chamber combined his government program with the electoral harangue. The president, who will lead the region with an absolute majority, began her speech with the “commitment” and “responsibility” to legislate for everyone, whether or not they vote for the Popular Party, but she quickly turned towards the objective that has marked her steps in recent years. last years. The acting president charged harshly against the Executive of PSOE and Unidas Podemos and their partners, and claimed their victory on May 28 as a turning point that is already being seen throughout Spain.

The composition of the Assembly, declared Ayuso, is the most evident example of three realities. The first, the support of the people of Madrid for the policies of the PP in Madrid. The second, the rejection of the policies of Pedro Sánchez and his parliamentary allies. And the third, in an electoral key, that Spain has planted. “The Spanish can't take it anymore. The political, moral and social deterioration of recent years, at the hands of totalitarian ideologies that no one has voted for, has come to an end,” he asserted..

The acting regional president, who will renew her position this Friday, placed special emphasis on the impact that Sánchez's policies have had on society after his term in office. “Social engineering, institutional degradation and the rule of law, democratic regression, the destruction of Transition Spain, the loss of Spain's good name and influence in the world,” he declared, with a clear message of facing 23-J. “In May, the Spanish people opened the door to a responsible policy anchored in clear ideas and projects. In July, I hope that we all cross that door also in the Congress of Deputies,” he added..

Isabel Díaz Ayuso did not leave anyone in the dark. The “ultra-left” that has been reduced to nothing in the Vallecas Chamber and one of Sánchez's main supporters in the last legislature, the cardinal point of Ayuso's speech in the 28-M campaign: Bildu. The acting regional president replied to Ferraz and placed the radical Abertzale formation within the Executive, contrary to what was stated by the socialist leader. “Bildu is governing Spain, they and their partners have sought to discredit or discredit our highest institutions: the Crown, judges, State security forces and bodies and the Armed Forces, career civil servants, the Consultative Administration…”, exposed Ayuso.

Nor did he forget Vox, his great headache during the final stretch of the last term, which he criticized for its “tacticism”. “The citizens have spoken clearly: they do not want parliamentary instability,” he continued..

The letter of introduction to your lordships had reserved the Government program, but first it had to send a message to mobilize the electorate in favor of Alberto Núñez Feijóo. “Change is unstoppable because all of Spain is clear about it. Spain deserves a better government and does not want its enemies to occupy its institutions, or to change it through the back door,” he stressed, after pointing out that the policies he represents are an “alternative” and “hope”.

The president, warned by the opposition to apply the “roller” with her absolute majority, appealed for dialogue despite the harsh tone of the last legislature. Isabel Díaz Ayuso assumed the “obligation to listen to society” to reach the maximum agreements. “Restore to politics the dignity and height that these years of corrosive coalition have tried to take away from it,” he said, again in clear allusion to the PSOE and the populisms of Unidas Podemos and other formations.

The acting president of the Community of Madrid garnished her speech with several announcements on key matters for the next four years. The line to follow, faithful to the discourse of the PP in the region, is a policy of low taxes and austerity in the Administration. Thus, as this newspaper advanced, the future regional Executive will have a new Department of Digitization, with the aim of turning the territory into an international benchmark for new technologies.

The tax cuts will once again mark the steps of the regional government, and the popular leader gave the first brushstrokes in this regard. The half-point reduction in personal income tax in all sections will be accompanied by a 50% discount on inheritance tax and donations between uncles and nephews. But the action is not limited to the scope of the regional Executive. Ayuso, in addition, will order the 115 municipalities governed by the PP in the region to apply a reduction in the Tax on the increase in the value of urban land, colloquially known as municipal capital gains. This mandate will also be extended to consistories controlled by other forces, although it will not be mandatory because it is a municipal competence..

From the City Council of the capital they have already accepted the commission, arguing that the popular leader's proposal fits perfectly with the policies of low tax pressure for the people of Madrid. The Área de Economía y Hacienda details that the mortis causa capital gain is already subsidized in Madrid. “In 2020, this government team intensified the bonuses in mortis causa transmissions. Currently, they range between 40% and 95% depending on the cadastral value of the property, applicable to direct relatives in the habitual residence and the business premises,” municipal sources say..

The family will play a fundamental role in the new program. The forecast, although without dates yet, is to approve a Family Law so that all the regulations that are promoted by the Administration take this aspect into account. Thus, the acting president detailed a series of aids and bonuses to promote the birth rate, which will be developed in parallel to a Family Support Plan with recognitions and benefits, especially the numerous and single-parent families.

The ad battery covers virtually all areas, from healthcare to education. And also going through large projects, such as the intention for Formula 1 to reach the region or the creation of a unit for ALS patients in the facilities of the old Puerta de Hierro Hospital. “It will serve as a reference for all the units that already treat patients from different hospitals, combining efforts, research and offering special day-to-day help to patients and their families,” Ayuso explained.. Also the commitment to modify what is known as the trans law, although the forecast is that it will not be a total repeal.
