A month and a half after the national leader of the Vox, Santiago Abascalwill announce with all solemnity the break all his party’s agreements with the PP in the autonomous communities in which they governed by pact, Marga Prohens He still doesn’t officially know what happened. No one from Vox spoke to him in the days before the break-up, nor in the weeks that followed, during which Balearic politics remained settled in a false sense of balance and stability.
This is false.like some of the news published this summer. This is due to the fact that there have been no plenary sessions in Parliament and Vox has not had the opportunity to demonstrate its weight by blocking laws or imposing conditions, but this mirage will dissipate from next week, when PP and Vox will have to sit down to rethink your relationship.
It will be a key week It remains to be seen how far this break announced by Santiago Abascal goes and what moves Vox will make from now on, but the actions of the far-right political party will be conditioned by the steps that Marga Prohens will make from now on.
The day after the announcement of the breakdown of the agreement, the Prime Minister gave a press conference during which she sent two messages: the first of which was that she understood that the breakdown of the agreement would imply the resignation of Gabriel Le Senne as President of Parliament, which did not happen. The second message has more content: Prohens said that from that moment on she felt obliged to comply only with the political program of the PP and not with the agreement she had signed with Vox.
What Prohens said
Prohens has categorically dissociated himself from all the measures included in the Vox program. But if you want govern with a certain tranquilitythat the budgets are approved and the administrative simplification decree goes through without problems, there may be no other choice than to continue implementing, from a monochrome government exclusive to the PP, the measures that appear in the Vox program.
THE Repeal of the Democratic Memory Act It is on this list of measures that it will be necessary to renegotiate. Prohens expressly mentioned it during this press conference and announced that, not being bound by the agreement reached with Vox, she considered herself free to make changes to the procedure. This is one of the issues that will be put back on the table in this renegotiation of the agreements that will begin this week.
The Linguistics Office
The other big dispute is what will ultimately happen to the Linguistics Office This required the formation of Santiago Abascal. The proposal was pending and the government indicated that it had no intention of launching it, even less since the announcement of the split, but for now nothing is clear and it is even possible that the office buried by Marga Prohens will be recovered by the president herself and return to the forefront. Another minor issue, but important for Vox, is the access of minors to bullfighting. This issue will have to be negotiated again, which, according to Prohens, is now buried in a drawer.
The spokesman of the Popular Party, Sebastian Sagrerasannounced that the two parties would meet at the end of the month to discuss the current state of their relations. In the PP, they firmly believe that there is a possibility of ending the crisis with an agreement that leaves things more or less as they were, but that will force Marga Prohens to move forward with measures with which she does not agree and which, moreover, she has already said that he does not intend to comply with them.
Vox remains silentbut now what Santiago Abascal decides. The party was not politically profitable from its agreements in the autonomous communities and that is why it dissolved. However, the Consell is still there and works as always. In the end everything will have moved so that everything remains.
