López Miras: "I am not going to govern in coalition with Vox, coalitions are a hoax"

He will not turn 40 until October and already has four years of autonomous government. Fernando López Miras (Lorca, 1983), after dodging the most convulsive legislature possible, aspires to an absolute or sufficient majority, without ties to Vox.

The Bildu lists have monopolized the campaign. How do you see it from Murcia? It is a very personal opinion, but I think that a terrorist, a murderer, someone who has shot another person twice, planted a bomb, or who has participated in all of this in some way , can not be a representative of our democracy. That is unworthy, it is immoral and it does not have any type of ethics. It is a shame that the Socialist Party, which should be a party with State responsibility, is willing to continue agreeing with Bildu. If the law does not cover that void of indignity, politicians have to put our dose so that these people are not part of the political or public scene of our country. Isabel Díaz Ayuso has requested the illegalization of Bildu with the current law. Are you also asking for it? What I am clear about is that a political party that is capable of having murderers among its representatives, I insist, should not be on the democratic scene in our country. In other words, you are also asking for the application of the Law of Parties to make Bildu illegal. If they are going to take assassins, terrorists or people who have participated or collaborated in a murder, in a terrorist attack, and they do not reject it, I agree that legally they cannot be part of our democracy. How much is this national controversy over Bildu influencing Murcia, in strictly electoral terms for the 28-M? It is more than evident that there are many moderate voters of the PSOE who are right now horrified by sanchismo and its sectarian ideological policies. And the PP has a message for all those moderate center-left voters: the only party that can guarantee a moderate government that leaves no one behind is the PP.. The only. But he also has a message for center-right and right-wing voters, and that is that if we split the vote, if the Popular Party does not obtain a majority in the next elections in Murcia, one of the most satisfied people on that election night is going to be Pedro Sanchez. There are some parties that are not exactly on the left that would have the same satisfaction as Pedro Sánchez if the Popular Party does not have that majority. They have the same goals.

With murderers on their lists, I think Bildu shouldn't be legal

It refers to Vox. Is your goal to add more than the entire left so as not to depend on Vox? My goal is for the Region of Murcia to continue to grow. That is my goal after the elections. I mean your goal in terms of results, on May 28. We need a majority that makes us govern without having to be tied to a minority that tries to impose itself on the majority. Without having to be tied to a minority that, whenever there are problems, seeks leadership instead of solutions. If the PP does not achieve an absolute majority, will it promise not to govern with Vox? What is clear to me is that I do not want to govern in coalition and that I am not going to govern in coalition. I am not going to do it. I'm not going to do it because coalitions are a hoax. I say it, I had one, I lived that experience and it ended with a betrayal at the hardest moment of the pandemic [the motion of censure failed]. Coalitions are a hoax throughout Spain. They are not efficient, they are not effective, they do not make decisions in the opportune time that situations require. In reality, there are two governments in coalitions: one part of the government wants the other to do badly. I do not want to depend on other parties that are somehow deceiving the voters, because they suggest that they can join forces with the Popular Party, but their electoral lists are made up of people who have left the PP out of spite and their only motivation to be in another party is revenge against the PP. The PP will have more deputies than the entire block on the left and that legitimizes us to govern alone.

They vote for water yes or water no; water is 60% more expensive without transfer

Feijóo has said that the one who wins has to govern. If that premise had been fulfilled in 2019, you would not have governed then. Do you now think like Feijóo or like yourself in 2019? Look, if in 2019 all the parties had reached that agreement that Feijóo is asking for, of course I would have seen it well and would have defended it. I agree that the list with the most votes should govern, but the Socialist Party has to accept it. If not, there is no possible agreement in that regard.. We are not going to box with one hand tied behind our back. Since there has been so much talk about Bildu, water, which was currently in the forefront, has been left in the background. It is essential that we have a National Hydrological Plan. And there must be a national pact for water that sets the basis for this Plan, because in Spain there is enough water for everyone, but mechanisms must be established so that all Spaniards have access to water under the same conditions. In the midst of a drought , Is it necessary to make Murcian in Spain and reuse and purify all the water more? Without a doubt. Today, one hectare of crops in the Region of Murcia requires 50% less water than the rest of Spain. And while in Spain right now 9% of our urban water is being treated and reused, and the goal is to get 20% of urban water treated and used in Spain, in the Region of Murcia we treat and reuse 99%. So, instead of giving us an example, why do they approve this cut in the Tajo-Segura transfer? Therefore, on May 28 in Murcia they voted transfer yes, transfer no. Without a doubt, one of the big issues that was voted on May 28 in Murcia is water yes or water no. The PSOE has unilaterally approved the cut of 50% of the Tajo-Segura transfer and the Socialists of the Region of Murcia have been unable to raise their voices. They have bowed their heads.

Vox in Murcia is made up of people who have left the PP and want revenge

With the cutting of the Tagus-Segura. How much will water become more expensive? The water bill will increase by 60%. Will you also appeal or counteract the Housing Law? It is a law that legalizes occupation. As far as possible, in Murcia it will not be applied in terms of regional powers. Will Murcia continue to lower taxes if you continue to govern? Of course we continue to lower taxes. We already have a few left to go down, yes. We have eliminated Patrimony, Inheritances and Donations, we have made 15 deductions in our regional taxes, we have lowered the regional income tax rate, we have also deflated the personal income tax and the only thing that remained was to be able to arrive, in the suspension of Inheritances and Donations , up to third grade. And we have already announced it. Do we have to remove the “a” for “high” speed from the Murcia AVE? Without a doubt. Madrid and Murcia are about 400 kilometers away and the AVE takes three and a half hours to get there. Blablacar takes less time. And there are only four frequencies.
