February 26, 2021. PSPV’s Organizing Secretary, José Muñoz, attends a rally in front of Teulada-Moraira Town Hall. Protest the upcoming overthrow with a no-confidence questioning that the PP, backed by two councilors who participated in the 2019 elections under the socialist umbrella, will expel Rosa Vila from Compromís as Mayor.
Muñoz recalled that, in a scenario of maximum tension that always permeates government changes based on disloyalty to political acronyms, the members of parliament who supported the operation were expelled from the socialist family, and thus the party headed by Carlos, Mazón in the province at the time, sought refuge in the always controversial phenomenon of transfuguismo. This maneuver, supported by the PPCV, was neither more nor less than the third in seven months after the censors became official. Machanes Tower and acceptance. Now, the epicenter of the battlefield, where the next war of renegades may be waged, is in Orihuela, where the fourth reprimand that has ever been in office in the province has been presented. There, PSPV and C’s inked an agreement to take the flag from PP this week, with support from Cambiemos (linked to Unides Podem). As of today, 16 days are left until the general assembly meeting, where the party change of the assembly members of the Arrimadas formation, which will continue in the local government, will be formalized, except for surprises. socialists. This maneuver does not have the support of the regional direction of Csopened an informative file that could result in deportation. Regardless of whether this process takes more or less time, and it remains to be seen what the real consequences from this uprising are, PSPV decided to move forward knowing that the five Cs councilors were acting on their own account and risk. that they could eventually join the state’s list of renegades without his party’s approval, which is hardly small. On this occasion, when the Socialists have the opportunity to expel the PP from the historic stronghold of the right, this obstacle does not seem to change anything.
The argument then supported by the socialists who ripped their clothes off before the Teulada-Moraira “robbery” is now switching sides and is the PP. Marina never knew the apostasy in AltaAsking PSPV’s leader, Ximo Puig, to publicly explain why he agreed with the renegades to overthrow the government led by Emilio Bascuñana. Sources of the regional leadership admit that there were contacts with the leadership of the Oranges in the Community, and they were always told the same thing, and it is the councilors who are now falling into the arms of the councilors. PSPV, or vice versa, turned a deaf ear to the claims of higher bodies. So the odds of being banned from the Cs abbreviation continue to grow if they don’t leak first.
Losing this Mayoralty, which belongs to the fourth largest municipality in the state and the sixth municipality in the Community, has upset the upper echelons of the regional PP, not just a bit. Even more so in a state where it has intensified its strategy of re-arming the Valencian right by budding problem areas, as was done by imposing a manager in Orihuela in December. As a result, if Bascuñana fails to run as mayor, Mazón will have his hands free to impose another candidate there. For now, the party is following the roadmap to pursue the next local processes for leadership renewal in the 60 municipalities pending after Easter. More to be seen in Orihuela and with the current scenario.
For PSPV, the signing of the no-confidence motion in Orihuela was a double blow. On the one hand, for reclaiming the most important office of the City Council, where the Socialists had not stepped in since 1986. Also, if Carolina Gracia finished the legislature as mayor, she could have an easy time protecting herself. Candidacy to lead the socialist cartel in the 2023 election. This is something that might break the game, apparently. Anthony ZapataWilling to fight Gracia in the primaries to seize control of the local group.
Zapata and Gracia are old acquaintances. In the last legislature, he joined the discharge at the PSOE and continued as the unassigned mayor. The woman, a city spokesperson, accused him of being a renegade. A few months ago, Zapata re-entered the party as a Dolores member and later transferred his registration to Orihuela. This move, sanctioned by Ferraz, dispelled any suspicion of renegade and paved the way for him to return to the game board, now linked to the current led by Secretary of State Alejandro Soler. wins ximismo candidate Toni Frances in the primaries, where Grace is fully aligned. Therefore, this near-local war also has a provincial and regional history. However, they argue from the PSPV that this attack continues to distract Vox from its influence on Orihuela and encourages the rule of a troop they consider paralyzed. órdago, initiated by the councilors of the cs to their party, they do not know officially.
Meanwhile, in the Cs group in Orihuela, they openly admit that “what should happen in the party” is that they are not at all unaware of the possible consequences of their challenge to the regional leadership. Divorce would mean losing one of the most powerful factions in the province to formation, as in Orihuela the Cs are not only the party that promoted Albert Rivera, but are the remnants of the Centro Liberal and Centro Liberal Renovador. the eternal shadow of lawyer José Alcántara for more than two decades. Currently, Cs is integrated into 15 government teams in the state. It seems like it’s only a matter of days to check if they hold 14.
