CC yesterday branded as “incomprehensible” and “difficult to explain” for the PP electorate that the leaders of this party have reached an agreement with the PSOE in the Cabildo de Tenerife to support the budgets of Pedro Martín’s government team. The general secretary of the nationalist formation, Fernando Clavijo, and the regional deputy and candidate for this party for the presidency of the Cabildo in the next island elections, Rosa Dávila, coincide in considering this budget agreement as an “endorsement” of the PP to “all the disastrous management” of Martín at the head of the institution and that this operation “will not be understood by the voters” of the formation led in the Canary Islands by Manuel Domínguez.
«There is no measure in the budgets for the Island that justifies the support of the PP. They are budgets that, even in their territorial distribution with the municipalities, do not obey the needs of Tenerife, and now it is clear that CC is the only formation that had alternative budgets, “says the top nationalist leader and regional senator. «You cannot approve budgets and then negotiate, as the PP is doing. We have been left alone as an alternative to the PSOE government with Podemos and Ciudadanos in Tenerife”, emphasizes Clavijo, who believes that this agreement “is good for voters to draw conclusions and know when they go to vote that this circumstance can occur, that they know that Your vote will go to the PSOE, which will serve to govern the PSOE ».
Along the same lines, the second vice president of the Parliament of the Canary Islands and nationalist candidate for the presidency of the Cabildo, points out: «That the PP gives its endorsement to a terrible management of the PSOE and gives oxygen to the government of Pedro Martín is something that they should judge the voters of the PP. They will know if their electorate may like this support or not. Dávila assures in this sense that “after three years of terrible management and the paralysis of Tenerife, giving him this oxygen ball is incomprehensible, especially for the PP electorate, who becomes co-responsible for the management of the Cabildo by the socialists”.
According to the nationalist leader, the budget to which the PP gives its support “maintains a clear investment imbalance throughout the Island, nor does it respond to the needs of the Island in every way,” for which she claims not to understand “how the PP , five months before the elections and with an electorate radically different from that of the PSOE, endorses Pedro Martín ». «They will be the ones who will have to explain themselves to their constituents. In Madrid they have a radical discourse against the PSOE government, but in Tenerife they throw their principles and values overboard for an agreement with a party that is at the antipodes, ”says Dávila. “It is good that the voters of the PP and the PSOE know that these two formations are giving mutual support,” concludes Clavijo on his side before considering that “the only alternative to Pedro Martín in Tenerife is Rosa Dávila.”
Arriaga: “Agreement of the entire government”
Enrique Arriaga (Cs) lived yesterday from commission to commission. Between one and the other, he pointed out about the agreement to approve the Cabildo’s 2023 budget that “the negotiation with the Popular Party was joint and was done within a government group, although that is the least of it now.” He understands the orange leader that “we are satisfied to have reached this agreement with the PP to carry out some accounts of capital importance.” He reasons it: “In a year in which there was a danger that many direct and electoral aid would decline, which made it very difficult to have them extended for day-to-day institutional operation.” He points out that “only the process of the approval of the plenary (on Friday) remains.” He is “happy because” the trains are unblocked, for which we always bet, and that the pact with Si Podemos Canarias had delayed “. | JDM
