In any case, he said, “the response to fascism cannot be a retreat into the old bipartisanship that implemented neoliberal policies that brought pain and suffering to families, as in 2011.”

“In this new electoral scenario, recognizing the fatigue that people are dragging on because there is always a difficult side to a campaign, we must generate hope, illusion and dare to launch proposals that aim to awaken new hope and joy that is not simply the fear of fascism. nor an institutional framework in favor of neoliberal dogma.

It is clear that there is no room for calmer analysis, as the clock will begin this Tuesday when the liquidation of the Cortes Generales is published in the BOE.

Unides Podem, on the other hand, chose to be cautious. Podem’s Organizing Secretary, Carles Fons, acknowledged the results were poor “without any mitigating measures” and regretted that “the call for elections this July did not leave much time for reflection”. What is needed now is to work to defend the rights gained in past years.

reactions and reflections

The three entities that make up Botànic now have their own directives ahead of them and, in addition to the post-election reflection, it has already been suggested that the forthcoming call will be discussed. Admittedly, Monday was complicated for these matches. The departure of the regional government represents a moment of crisis that remained in the air before the announcement. With the loss of power in the territory of Valencia, it is a municipality.

The remaining formations (Ciudadanos and Vox) were sent to their national channels. Mamen Peris’ party suffered a serious setback on Sunday, and even the possibility of not attending the 23J date was raised. Ciudadanos convened his national commission in Madrid and from there measures will be taken in different autonomies.

Vox, which has grown in the province of Alicante and increased its presence in the Valencian Parliament with three deputies, referred to the statements of national president Santiago Abascal for his part. The line-up, led by Carlos Flores, also plans to celebrate his directive this Tuesday.

Therefore, all parties, with the exception of the PP, which held its meeting yesterday, and Podemos, which did not set a date, 48 hours after the closing of the polls, have to simultaneously address two facts that may conflict a priori. On the one hand, the reflection of the 28M, and thus the healing of the wounds, will coincide with the maintenance of the electoral mechanism over time, but the change in Palau de la Generalitat will be complicated as it will mean a departure from political positions. and new entries to the Valencian Cortes.

It should be noted that the socialist general secretary Ximo Puig chose to exclude from the electoral lists all those positions that were not members of parliament, who also took office but knowing that the number of positions in the Administration had been greatly reduced.

Another question is knowing what to do with the current head of Consell, who refused to answer when asked by the media yesterday and limited himself to stating that there is a time for everything. It has been suggested that Ferraz’s Pedro Sánchez will run for generals, but PSPV will have to face that call with doubts as to whether it’s time to take over or if it’s better to wait for the summer.

Another similar case is that of Compromís, although full of nuances. With major national touchstone Joan Baldoví stepping forward, the coalition faces a quest for a name with enough appeal to retain its Madrid seat. Also, progress other than judicial surprise continues to exclude former Vice President Mónica Oltra, who continues to be involved in the judicial process.
