He Another day, a former advisor told me convergent of the Generalitat which “We have had Salvador Illa for eight years”. And let it not be noon, I thought. To the cheetah who is silent, indeed, the first socialist president for fourteen years consolidates his position. Calmly.
Indeed, not even a hundred days have passed -he was elected on August 8-. And he’s only been here two months. But for now, that’s the rule. Or he gives the image that he governs. which is already a lot. Because in the last decade, even more so, everything was posturing, gesticulations and tears.
It started, for example, to recover the damaged image of Catalan institutions. Today, for the first time in a long time, there is a president of the Generalitat who makes no mistakes. He also normalized his relations with the Royal House. And the doors of the European Commission are open again.
At the Mossos, he appointed a new boss. And he even unblocked the section of the Fourth Belt between Terrassa and Sabadell. Something Esquerra was opposed to. You see, in Madrid, they take the M-60 and here we are still with the Fourth Belt, which has dragged on since the first tripartite (2003-2006). All that is missing is the expansion of the airport.
On the other hand, TV3 remains untouchable. Probably because this must have been one of the ERC’s secret conditions for agreeing. And because CCMA’s leadership team is legacy.
The same faces that appeared during the process continue to appear on air: Toni Cruanyes, Ricard Ustrell, Helena García Melero, Xavier Graset. I saw the latter two, as supporters, at the Puigdemont rally in Perpinyà. Moreover, the same actors from Whore Spain. Because of the bill it brings them, they are more careful.
Illa fishes even in the old convergent space. He named Unió’s last leader, Ramon Espadaler, as justice minister. And he received Jordi Pujol in Palau. Espadaler is the one at the top, but not the only one. Some from Sotoverno also come from this region, such as the mayor of Junts signed by the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Jaume Duch.
The emerging consolidation of Illa – a long-distance runner who does not run half-marathons in vain – is favored by the fact that Junts is still in a state of shock. Sánchez depends on them, but at the Generalitat and the City Hall of Barcelona they find themselves with two candles.
Puigdemont continues to make the cojonera fly. That deep down, It’s the only thing he knows how to do. Even if we can’t direct a match from Waterloo. Moreover, it is always about throwing the stone and hiding your hand. He has already resigned from the party presidency. Laura Borràs is out. Today, of course, he also resigned as leader of the opposition. How will you carry out your duties if the amnesty, for the moment, fails?
While those of ERC are in the middle of a crisis. The match between Macià and Companys is open to the public. With four candidates in the running. Crossed accusations. Dirty war. Junqueras launched a direct attack against Marta Rovira on September 21 during an event in Olesa de Montserrat (Barcelona).
Only a week later, he declared, in an interview with the newspaper Ara, that “I will not contribute to Esquerra’s injuries.” Rovira did not want to get involved but sent heavyweights on the offensive. Aragonés, former president of the Generalitat, and Carme Forcadell, former president of Parliament; They asked for his replacement.
Therefore, in politics you never know, but it seems that there will be Illa for a while.
