Elections in Castilla y León
Successful International Meeting of Socialist Women. Successful International Meeting of Socialist Women. Successful International Meeting of Socialist Women, Successful International Meeting of Socialist Women. A new left-wing political alternative is needed.
The PP imposed itself narrowly in the Castilla y León elections, Although for them the news was not as good as they expected.. On the one hand, Alfonso Fernández Mañueco will continue to be president of the Board. But, will depend completely on Vox to govern for the next four years.
Above, Pablo Casado did not achieve the resounding victory he was looking for to strengthen himself in the internal dispute with the president of the Community of Madrid, Isabel Diaz Ayuso. Casado joined the criticism for the payments that Ayuso made to his brother during the administration, in concept of “commissions”.
Vox strengthened
The extreme right obtained the 17% supportive, that is to say 200.000 votes and 13 seats, with an unknown candidate with no experience in politics. from this location, Santiago Abascal claims the vice presidency of the Board. Vox feeds on the votes that the PP loses, with whose organization it disputes the same electoral political space.
Obtaining positions also favored the España Vaciada platform, who burst onto the stage with different electoral expressions. For this reason they have already announced their intention to run in the general elections..
Those who lost
mobilizations and general strike so that the crisis is paid by those who generated it, who had announced a change of government that did not materialize, placed second. The social democrats lost seven attorneys in the Cortes Castile and Leon, but they didn't sink like him 4 from last may, when they lost thirteen seats in the Madrid Assembly.
Citizens falling into the abyss
Francisco Igea, vice president of the Board, lost more than 150.000 votes and eleven attorneys in the Cortes. This is another of the right-wing expressions that, in his debacle, fuels the growth of Vox. It is not a minor fact since they lost 47 deputies in Congress, 30 seats in Catalonia and 26 deputies in the Madrid Assembly.
United We Can does not raise its head
the reformers, who presented with Izquierda Unida and Alianza Verde, They continue to pay dearly for their incorporation into the bourgeois government of the PSOE, its full incorporation into the regime and the abandonment of its most critical positions. They were only able to revalidate Pablo Fernández's seat, and they lost one of the two attorneys obtained in 2019. In Castilla y León they got another bad result that does not help the recomposition that Vice President Yolanda Díaz intends to lead.
Bulk deceptions
The PSOE and Unidas Podemos present themselves as progressive and left-wing, But they are not. They embody a bourgeois government with a discourse that is barely tinged with social, but with measures openly functional to the great economic powers.
The right and the extreme right are in permanent dispute for the same space. And the one that grows there is Vox, the most retrograde variant, declared enemy of the workers, the feminist movement and immigrants.
They don't come out of a cabbage
Yes Vox grows, It is because the very parties that claim to fight it pave the way for it.. They do not confront them in the streets and lay the red carpet for them to enter the institutions of the regime.. It is not enough with the partial criticism of the PSOE, Unidas Podemos and others, we have to defeat them in the streets, in every place where they show their heads.
A new political alternative is needed
Organizations that remain only at the regional level, those who criticize, but they remain halfway, vested in the institutions and the capitalist system., they end up being functional to power, although they have critical speeches, as United We Can, United Left, the PCE, ERC, JxCat, EH Bildu and others.
The CUP had been outlined to be an alternative, but unfortunately, supported the investiture of the Catalan bourgeois government and, beyond some fair criticism that he makes, supports the agreements with ERC and the President Pere Aragonés.
The need to establish something new in the Spanish State is becoming more and more evident.. A regrouping is needed, a consistent construction, anticapitalist, really left. That has street mobilization and independent organization as its center. Let him go to the end in the struggles alongside the workers, for democratic and social rights, against the regime of ' 78 and EU imperialist bloc.
By the confluence of the revolutionary socialists
Those of us who claim to be revolutionary socialists can play a role in the emergence of something new. We have to look for a confluence to regroup a consistent pole, of class independence, with more strength than acting separately from different small groups gives. It would be very positive to take steps in this direction in order to establish a Left Front, for support the struggles, present left-wing political alternatives, anti-capitalists and for a just social system, without exploiters or oppressors, that is, socialist.
