Together bend the arm of Pedro Sánchez… again. The government has carried out in recent days Several movements to try to entertain their independence partners.
Sánchez’s last maneuver in favor of Puigdemont’s has been the announcement of a Public consultation on the OPA that BBVA has launched on Banco Sabadell. It is the first time that the government resorts to this instrument to assess an operation of this draft, and although its result is not binding, it reflects the complete Executive interference in a private business issue. The consultation is already open.
However, as from Junts they completely reject this OPA, Sanchez has no choice but to try torpedoing the operation To congratate those of Puigdemont.
The independentistas are against the OPA, the first, because it would mean lose the Catalanity of the resulting entitysince it would be the BBVA that would be done with Sabadell. In addition, the fear of entrepreneurs of this autonomy to make their financial conditions worse after OPA, would also be pressing Junts.
Taxpayer money, to Catalonia
Sánchez announced this consultation to “collect” the opinion of organizations, citizens and associations at the 40th Economy Circle, which has been held since last Monday until today in Catalonia and brings together a long list of politicians and businessmen in the region.
In his speech, the president of the Government also left another In a message that will have been very well received by its independence partners. This is the agreed financial disconnection of Catalonia with the rest of Spain and the condonation of the 17,000 million euros of debt charged to all taxpayers (83,200 in total to the CCAA).
Sánchez presumed that he is “taking steps” to Deliver the Tax Agency to Cataloniaas well as to close the condonation of the regional debt, complying with the “agreed” with the independentists. In a doubtful Lapsus also referred to Spain already Catalonia as two “countries.”
“We are seeing in the rental campaign A greater prominence of the Catalan Tax Agency ” The PSOE leader celebrated, who added that “we are proceeding from the Government of Spain, with collaboration and cooperation, to the transfer of competencies in tax matters.”
Sánchez’s statements have outraged the State Finance Inspectors association (IHE). “It is not acceptable to propose, regardless of the norm and not counting on the rest of Spain – and much more unfortunate accept – a break in the current financing system. This is granting an autonomous community, privileges that do not correspond to it And that does not contemplate the Spanish Constitution, in addition to breaking the service provided by the AEAT in Catalonia under excuses that do not respond to the needs of citizens and, therefore, to the general interest “criticized after the words of the leader of the PSOE.
This inspector association ensures that “it will adopt all the appropriate legal measures to prevent” this concession and have cried out “the tax authorities and the president of the Government that return to the path of sanity of the rule of law and respect for the constitutional principles of equality and solidarity among all Spaniards.”
Special working day for Catalonia?
On the other hand, yesterday Tuesday, the Government, with Yolanda Díaz leading the measure, approved the Reduction of the working day. This decision occurs when Junts gives him another ordinance To the Executive.
As announced by the Junts spokeswoman in Congress, Míriam Noguerasthe independentists intend to present an amendment to the totality of this increase in the business costs of Díaz and Sánchez, which It would harm Catalan SMEs. Yolanda Díaz says that she is willing to “negotiate” the measure, although it rules out a reduction in the specific working day for Catalonia.
Will the government give any other concession in this regard? If Junts rejects the government measure, a New political varapalo to the government of Sánchez in Congress of the deputies.
