Canarian Coalition and the People’s Party announce a pact for governance of the Council of Tenerife. During the morning of today they meet their negotiating commissions. The representatives of both political formations (Rosa Davila and Lope Afonso) will attend the media after the meeting at the Hotel Escuela de Santa Cruz de Tenerife. The most voted list in the elections last May 28 was that of the socialist Peter Martin, current acting president who obtained 11 directors. After the Socialists, CC got 10 and the PP 8. They complete the 31 directors, the two that got vox to enter the institution for the first time. The CC-PP pact must take the motion of censure to gain access to the insular government as its path.
The Popular Party has insisted after the 28M in occupying the presidency of the Cabildo de Tenerife with the endorsement of the 75,000 votes of support for Lope Afonso that those eight councilors have given to the popular, which means doubling the four he had. The Canarian Coalition, for its part, considers that Rosa Dávila occupies the presidency as “unavoidable” by heading the list with the most votes (28,000 votes ahead) of the two that will present the hypothetical motion of no confidence. Now they have reached an agreement that they will detail at the press conference.
Pedro Martín will take office in a constitutive plenary session, presumably on the 23rd, since the Regulations of the Insular Corporation determine that whoever heads the most voted list will be. With the agreement between CC and PP, the next immediate step will be a motion of no confidence. It will be the second in the history of the Cabildo after the one that, precisely, supported the socialist in 2019. After a period of ten business days, a new plenary session will presumably proclaim the first president of the Cabildo de Tenerife, the nationalist Rosa Dávila.
