In the City Council of Badajoz , the only councilor of United We can inton the will not move us. The Government of the PP and Cs has ordered him to leave the office he occupies since this legislature began, as it becomes a dependency of Cs, and move to a smaller one. A move that justify that dependencies are redistributed based on the representation of each group. Erika Cadenas remains entrenched for days, refuses to leave. "There are three plasterboard walls that have been placed in the middle of a corridor without sufficient conditioning. It is a cubicle," she defends.

Chains has already received two requirements to move. One of the mayor Francisco Javier Fragoso , setting last January 31 as the deadline for the change, and another more recent by Ignacio Grajera , spokesman for Citizens, last week, in his role as mayor for the march of Fragoso to Madrid (en senator), granting them 24 hours.

"Here I am still sitting in the office," says Chains in conversation with this newspaper, who despite his entrenchment goes out to eat, sleep ... tries to live a normal life, always throwing the key. Both the Local Police and municipal operators have already been there to see if the move materialized.

"We find the resolutions very unfair. We understand that the mayor has to please his partners, but that does not mean a grievance for us. We do not hold on, but if we are going to be evicted they give us a site with the minimum requirements to work , it doesn't even have sound insulation, "laments the councilwoman.

Cadenas and Fragoso held a meeting on Friday and have agreed to meet again on Monday to try to solve what the mayor has defined as "real bullshit." "What happens in this house does not happen anywhere in Spain." Thus he expressed his discomfort only a few days ago in an act he starred in. "If we can not want to be Democrats, then obviously we must use the mechanisms that the law marks," he said, to insist that United We have a single councilor and that the stays are distributed based on representation (the PP has 9 councilors; Cs has 4; the PSOE adds 12; and Vox and Unidos Podemos, one each). "You have to accept the resolutions, that's called democracy."

The purple councilor rejects this argument. "They say that by our representation we would have a smaller office. They realize six months after starting the legislature!", Says Cadenas, who alleges that his office is the same as the one he occupied in the previous legislature We can Recover Badajoz and in others past IU, although it also had legislatures with a single representative.

United We can denounce that the background of his "eviction" is to hinder his opposition work, not having "a place with the minimum requirements to work", and grant citizens a dependency to develop their work as a party, regardless of the institutional . From the mayor's office it is preferred that party and institutional affairs be divided.

"They want to carry out their party activities in this office. These offices assigned by the mayor are not for that, they are for institutional work," says Cadenas. In his meeting with the mayor, he proposed to move to the new office provisionally. "I have told him that I am not opposed, I will abide by decisions, but I have the right to defend myself and complain if it is unfair and arbitrary. If I get an eviction order when I abide, I will not go to that cubicle. Before I stay in the cubicle. door".
