Several popular autonomous governments already threatened, two months ago, that they would go to court in the event that a forgiveness of Catalonia’s debt or any measure on regional financing that they considered contrary to the law was finally agreed upon. It was during the first plenary session of the General Commission of the Autonomous Communities of the Senate, and in which the 11 presidents of the PP intervened when the content of the pacts signed between the PSOE and the nationalist and independence forces for the investiture of Pedro was still unknown. Sanchez. This Tuesday, with the concessions open book, the warning of the popular ones has for the moment translated into the debate of a motion in the Upper House, in which they have demanded the reform of the regional financing system through a “multilateral” negotiation. “They are going to get tired of hearing us demand equality. He offers us crumbs,” criticized the popular Tomasa Hernández, Minister of the Presidency, Interior and Culture of Aragon, in a session in which both the spokespersons of the parliamentary groups and several counselors of the territorial Executives participated.
During the General Commission of the Autonomous Communities this Tuesday, in addition to that motion relating to regional financing, another was debated in which the Senate, with an absolute popular majority, requests the disapproval of the proposed amnesty law for the accused. for him process, whose processing will slow down the PP as much as possible in the Upper House. PP senator María Salom opened the session with harsh attacks on the President of the Government for the economic agreements reached with ERC and Junts. “The blackmail that Pedro Sánchez has indulged in is petty. The new financing system is that a community arrives, takes what it wants and from what is left, the rest can make do. “It is nonsense,” the Balearic parliamentarian criticized and appealed to the urgency of modifying a model from “14 years ago.”
The PSOE agrees on the need to update regional financing, but has confronted the position defended this Tuesday by the PP, which during Mariano Rajoy’s two terms in office did not promote said reform. “Either they have a short memory or they didn’t care. Now all the rush and all the threats have entered them,” said Juan Espadas. The recently appointed spokesperson for the PSOE in the Senate has also criticized the governments of Juan Manuel Moreno, in Andalusia, and that of Isabel Díaz Ayuso, in the Community of Madrid, for the “incoherence” of requesting greater regional financing from the central government while reduce taxes on large fortunes, causing a “dumping fiscal” between territories.
Several presidents of the PP have expressly requested the Government to convene the Fiscal Policy Council after the socialists agreed with Esquerra to forgive 20% of Catalonia’s debt contracted with the Autonomous Liquidity Fund (FLA). A forum that the PP also referred to this Tuesday in the Senate. “If they are going to dare to bring a real proposal, we will be willing to listen,” responded socialist senator Juan Lobato.

The first vice president of the Xunta de Galicia, Diego Calvo, had so much desire, to debate the amnesty, which was the protagonist of the day’s anecdote. In his first turn to speak, when senators and councilors were debating regional financing, Calvo hastened and began to criticize the pardon for those prosecuted by the process, whose discussion was relegated to second place on the agenda, with the consequent surprise of the audience and the warning of the president of the Commission, the also popular Luisa Fernanda Rudi. “Coexistence is not guaranteed by exchanging votes for immunity. Amnesty as payment is unaffordable and morally indecent,” Calvo said later, at the right moment.
Several regional governments of the PP have also announced that they will appeal to the Constitutional Court against the proposed amnesty law when it is approved. “He has negotiated power against the framework of coexistence. Dare to give an explanation to all the autonomous communities,” added Antonio Sanz, counselor of the Presidency of the Junta de Andalucía, who recalled and reiterated the request of the regional presidents of the PP to La Moncloa to convene the Conference of presidents of the autonomous communities. While that appointment arrives or not, the PP will continue to strike against the transfers to Sánchez’s investiture partners from the General Commission of the Autonomous Communities of the Senate.
