• Crisis. Ahead Andalusia looks to the rupture after running aground the negotiation on its future
  • The negotiation: a million euros: the pending fringes of the political 'divorce' of Teresa Rodríguez and Pablo Iglesias

Forward Andalusia has ended up exploding through the air. Of course, its leaders have left the door ajar until September. After weeks of tug of war on the electoral platform that is made up in the Andalusian community of Podemos, the Anticapitalistas of Teresa Rodríguez (formerly Podemos Andalucía), Izquierda Unida, Primavera Andaluza and Izquierda Andalucista, the break is closer and closer.

Izquierda Unida en Andalucía, led by Toni Valero, accused Teresa Rodríguez on Tuesday of "appropriating" in an "improper way" the social networks of Adelante Andalucía and expelling IU from its shared management.

Teresa Rodríguez, for her part, explained to Europa Press that days ago "IU has withdrawn money from the accounts of the Huelva and Malaga councils belonging to Adelante without warning " and that, fearing that it could do the same with the social networks, "by agreement of the parliamentary group, it was decided to change the communication protocol so that they can continue publishing, but not exclude us." IU, however, rejects this version.

For IU, the Anticapitalist current "has violated" the "unitary vocation, as well as the most basic democratic principles of participation and dialogue", by "appropriating" Adelante Andalucía's profiles on social networks , including Facebook, Twitter or Instagram .

Now, the publications and control of social networks reside exclusively in the hands of the current of Teresa Rodríguez, after, during the afternoon of this Monday, they eliminated the IU administrators and modified the passwords so that neither this party nor Podemos Andalusia can have access to them, according to the IU version, which affirms that the negotiations are now "blocked" by this matter.

Shortly after IU's complaint, Teresa Rodríguez posted a video on her Twitter profile with the following message: "Yesterday we had a meeting. It did not go well, the confluence was considered broken , a fact that we very much regret. We appeal to go back to a table in September to figure it out. "

Speaking to Europa Press, the president of the Adelante Andalucía parliamentary group, leader of Anticapitalistas and former general coordinator of Podemos Andalucía, Teresa Rodríguez, explained that this Monday representatives of the five members of Adelante again held a meeting that "ended badly " and that, although he hopes that the talks can be resumed in September, for the moment he considers the negotiations" broken ".

On the part of IU, the person in charge of Communication, Javier Moreno , has clarified to Europa Press that they do not understand that the negotiations are broken but "blocked" because Anticapitalistas, a party that, as he recalled, was not part of Adelante until a few years ago. months, "it has usurped in an undemocratic way, first the brand and now social networks."

IU sees this extreme as "inconceivable" and accuses Anticapitalistas of creating a "story" to justify the rupture , given that the "appropriation" of the networks occurred "at the same time that the meeting was being held."

According to the IU, Anticapitalistas "has appropriated both the profiles of Adelante of autonomous projection and those linked to the eight provinces." It is "one more episode" in his career "due to the appropriation of Adelante, as well as the practical cancellation of the representation of IU and Podemos and their political positions," says IU.

Meanwhile, Teresa Rodríguez has said that IU "has changed position since the PSOE and IU co-govern in Madrid" and that they intend, like the leadership of Podemos Andalucía led by Martina Velarde, to replicate in Andalusia the alliance maintained by forces at the level state. That "generates a lot of uncertainty", since her bet continues to be that Adelante comes to Congress with its own ballot and not be a crutch force of the PSOE, she added.

"The underlying problem is to decide if Adelante Andalucía is going to reissue the IU co-government with Susana Díaz in Andalusia and if it exercises its right to build an Andalusian group in the Confederate Congress with other sister organizations. The rest is a story," said Teresa Rodríguez in a tweet.

We can Andalusia

The third force in contention, Podemos Andalucía, has also pointed to the "anti-democratic" attitude of Anticapitalistas , although it has appealed to those who make up the confluence to urgently resume dialogue and avoid internal rupture.

"We call on all the forces that make up the confluence to resume the path of dialogue, make the necessary efforts to avoid the breakdown of Adelante Andalucía and put the interests of the Andalusian people before any partisan interest", has claimed Martina Velarde , general coordinator of Podemos Andalucía.

The purple formation considers that the meeting held this Monday of the parties that make up Adelante "left an open door for dialogue that must be valued."

Velarde, who attended this meeting, stated in a statement that "there was a wide space for agreement that allowed for political synthesis and that only steps were needed to democratize the brand of confluence."

For this reason, he believes that "it is not understood and it is inadmissible that Anticapitalistas has appropriated Adelante Andalucía's social networks", which Velarde considers " a threat that can break the framework of unity and confluence through the facts and supposes betray the hopes and trust of the people who supported Adelante Andalucía ".

More than one million euros

Adelante Andalucía has 17 regional deputies in the Andalusian Parliament. As EL MUNDO reported, the parliamentary group chaired by Teresa Rodríguez receives an allocation from the Andalusian Chamber of 1,665,933.84 euros , by virtue of the agreement adopted by the Chamber of the Chamber on February 5 for this year 2020. And from That amount, at least until a few weeks ago, 65% went to Podemos and 35% to Izquierda Unida, the main partners of the confluence, so that the purple party had 1,082,857 euros in the distribution and the Toni Valero coalition, 583,976.64 euros.

But the scenario changed with the departure, first, of Teresa Rodríguez and her entire team (parliamentarians included) from Podemos and the incorporation, later, to Adelante Andalucía of Anticapitalistas, the party from which Rodríguez came and in which he has now taken refuge. . Under the umbrella of these acronyms, it continues to control the parliamentary group and the economic resources, just over one million euros which, until now, were the main means of financing for Podemos in Andalusia.
