The main protagonists of the Spanish democratic system—that is, by the Constitution. “the main tool of political participation”– has long been a real paradigm of immorality. They often lack respect for the basic rules of the corporate game. If we continue like this, with such power and opposition wild boars, we are on our way to causing a very serious crisis of credibility in the coexistence system approved by the Spaniards in 1978, which can be synthesized with the classical political style. theory, precisely as the “government of laws”.
In the distribution of blame, we should definitely start with the popular ones. Not just PP he is a sinkhole of corruption, but pure and simple disloyalty to the Constitution. In its eagerness to delegitimize the Socialist Executive, it did not stop at the bar associations, and the renewal of the General Assembly for the Judiciary (CGPJ), which requires a three-fifths majority, has been under an unbearable blockade for over four years. in every room. Due to the higher number of Council members appointed in 2013, PP does not want the current Cortes to replace him, as he looks forward to the end of his term. This kind of political primitivism, unsuccessfully disguised as one excuse after another, is now trying to cover itself up by introducing a bill to change the method of electing members of the governing body of judges in its favor. This attitude reveals that the public believes that the judiciary owns the farmhouse. Also: they do not accept the legitimacy of any constitutional body (National Government, CGPJ, Constitutional Court…) that is not their property or control. I think it’s almost a non-system party anyway. Her next wedding with Vox will definitely confirm this trend. The king’s warning of Christmas therefore did not reach deaf ears.
Regarding the other major national party, the socialist, it is clear that its leader, Pedro Sánchez, reached La Moncloa legitimately, that is, as it should be in a democratic State of Law. Of course it had to deal not only with Unidas Podemos but also with Catalan and Basque separatists, including PNV and Bildu. This is more or less admirable (even within the PSOE), but it is no different from what has happened in other countries, except that Aznar’s PP had to negotiate with convergences (Hotel Majestic Pact) and peneuvistas at the time. multicolored European governments. However, Spanish socialism’s access to the most resounding obscenity comes from the moment it negotiated with the ERC separatists for the reform or repeal of the provisions of the Penal Code (mutilation and embezzlement crimes) that prompted calls from those in parliament. “process”. I can understand the pardon of prison sentences on grounds of political normalization. What is unacceptable is sacrificing the dignity of the State by agreeing with the criminals to continue at the head of the central government to amend or abolish the penal rules so gravely violated in the separatist attempt in 2017.
To end the non-compliance and clearly demonstrate the power of Sánchez as “Dominus Hispaniae” (or simply “The will of the Führer is the Law”), see, “ad hominem” in the processing of penal reform mentioned above, without any material connection to the current legislative initiative, It introduced changes to change the Judicial Organization Laws and the Constitutional Court. This is in conjunction with the argument that the conservative majority in the Council will stop blocking the appointment of the two Magistrates of the TR and this cannot prevent the appointment of two other Magistrates already appointed by the Government. In short, it’s also worth noting that PP-related CGPJ members’ refusal to comply with what is mandated in their own Organic Law, amended for this purpose in 2022, is a morrocotudo mess. The PP and Vox’s Parliamentary Groups appealed for amparo against the decision to accept debate and vote on these amendments, correctly understanding that TC doctrine already considers “legislative conflict” of various issues in this way to be a violation of the fundamentals of minority rights. The explosion, however, occurred because the Constitutional Court, in response to the appellants’ request, reached an “unheard” decision (ATC 176/2022) to process the appeal (without hearing anyone else) and suspend the contested decision. December 19th). Work with TC! All the geese of the Capitol began to cry and groan about the invasion of the Legislative Branch. Heads of Departments and Head of Government made very important institutional statements in this regard.
It also turned out that the Court’s decision was accepted by a 6 to 5 majority. What was missing! In the individual votes of the opposing Judges (“progressives”), the parliamentary “sovereignty” (here he goes!), the “immunity” of the Cortes (what does that have to do with it!), and the “centre of national sovereignty” (false!). But is it so hard to understand that “national sovereignty belongs to the Spanish people, from which State powers derive” and that “public powers (and Courts among them) are subject to the Constitution and the rest of the legislation”? system”? Well, look at articles 1.2 and 9.1 of the text of the constitution.
If we were melancholic, we would have to conclude that our corporate life is like a game of chess among blind crooks. And not rarely drunk.
