Two managers, a frustrated motion of censure in 2013 against the nationalist Álvaro Dávila (CC), the expulsion of seven councilors (Rodolfo León, María de los Ángeles Dávila Rodríguez, Moisés Domingo González Miranda, Ana Isabel Díaz Rodríguez, Juan García García, Carlos Medina and Sandra Ramos) for individual disobedience, and a government pact with Nueva Canarias (NC) and Sí se puede with a shared Mayor’s Office that never materialized by the PSOE, are the consequences that have caused the Tacoronte socialist group lived for almost a decade among troubled waters that have not yet calmed down.
Everything indicates that it is getting closer to achieving it and this involves the appointment of a new local executive, a process that according to the president of the current management commission, the former councilor in the City Council of La Orotava, Manuel González, has been lengthened more than a year, a time longer than initially planned.
González, who has the difficult job of regularizing the local group and who was secretary of party organization in 2013, in a year that was also turbulent for the Tacorontero PSOE, assures that “it intends to hold the assembly to elect the new executive this month, like the rest of the local groups, which would culminate the congressional process of the PSOE, opened with the Federal Congress”.
That will mean that it will have a new executive that will be an important support for the municipal PSOE, which is part of the government group. In this sense, he is convinced of the strength of the group, “because with fewer councilors, specifically three, it has assumed the same management load that it had with five and the work is better because they are very involved in moving the City Council forward in any way” . In this sense, he maintains that “the incorporation of councilwoman Sandra Izquierdo into the government group has been like a hurricane.”
According to González, “a great effort is being made to carry out the projects, working in the right direction, seeking real budgets for the municipality, strengthening those areas that are important to deal with the situation we are experiencing and with a view to the approval of an overall plan”.
All this means that the local PSOE “is very well placed to face the coming months” and anticipates that when people can begin to affiliate, “it will recover many very valuable people for the municipality and for the party.”
In short, the president of the management company stresses that the Tacoronte PSOE “has laid the foundations to run for the 2023 elections with a solid project and for this it is essential to have a local executive who is thinking about the municipality.”
