Juan Carlos I de Borbón = corrupt monarchy
With the 78, the powerful are not investigated.
When it came out that in Switzerland the participation of Juan Carlos I in the collection of commissions for the construction of the AVE to Mecca, the prosecution had no more alternative to announce that it would also investigate. It was then that United We can (UP), ERC, JxCat, PNV, Collect, more Country, BNG and Compromís requested in Congress to create a commission of inquiry. Again, table of Congress blocked the possibility of knowing the truth about the serious allegations weighing on the emeritus, rather, The Untouchable.
The "Lawyers" they alleged that it is not possible to investigate the former head of state since his inviolability is permanent, even after his abdication. The Table of Congress, chaired by Meritxell Batet (PSOE) He has based his decision on the Constitution where it is established that the Cortes Generales control "Government action" and therefore do not have the power to control other institutions, like in this case, the Head of State. Representations of the majority parliamentary groups, PSOE, PP and VOX, contributed their votes.
As a product of the previous scandal, King Felipe VI renounced his personal inheritance and took father Juan Carlos 194.232 euros he received from the Royal House. Facing the current scandal, still hasn't opened his mouth. Annoyed that your proposal was not approved, the PNV called for a constitutional reform that eliminates the inviolability of the monarch in private, not in his "political activity". Bildu and The Commons They proposed that the portraits and statues of Juan Carlos I be removed from Congress.
On his side UP, who disagrees with the PSOE about the investigation, remains loyal to the government as if it were a minor problem. Pablo Echenique, UP spokesperson expressed: “It is no surprise to anyone that we have different positions at this point.. We have known how to maintain them from mutual respect: we respect the position of the PSOE, even if we don't share it; the PSOE respects our position. I want to thank you for that respect. It shows that agreements can be given and you can have partners without having to agree on all points.”. They are executing what was agreed, keep them "Agreed discrepancies".
Every day new data emerges from the alleged monarchical corruption, and every time the closed one is repeated institutional refusal to investigate. This is so because the parliamentary monarchical regime is the key piece of the constitutional scaffolding of '78. The Franco regime shaped the institutions and restored the monarchy legitimized in the transition. They are not only protecting Juan Carlos I, they are protecting the continuity of the royal family and an anachronistic regime. The former Head of State has already been accused several times. Former President Felipe González was singled out by the CIA for the relationship with the GAL, groups of mercenaries dedicated to state terrorism. M. Rajoy is still free and without problems. There are just three examples that demonstrate that impunity at heights is not confined.
We encourage research, but there is nothing to indicate that it will arrive via a parliamentary committee, much less if those who promote it do so as a mere bureaucratic process, which is not accompanied by the call for mobilization to impose it. An Independent Investigative Commission is required, composed of irreproachable personalities, no link to the regimen, to investigate fully and without conditions and end impunity. Based on the widest unity of action of all the sectors that want the truth to be known and to be punished without privileges for anyone.
The regime is exhausted, institutions are corrupted, they are not independent, nor democratic, are dedicated to guaranteeing the capitalist profits of capitalism. The monarchy goes through one of its worst crisis, which reflects the state of decomposition in which it is. The Constitution of '78 cannot give any positive and democratic response to the large popular majorities. It is not enough with fixes that change something, not to change anything in the background, must be mobilized for the abolition of the monarchy and a constituent process, that on the ground with the regime. We need to stand up a new left, to turn everything: government, the regime and the system, and for the crisis to be paid by the capitalists.
