The president of the Congress prevents the interventions of the CUP and BNG in the Plenary because they are not in Spanish

• Politics. The Government claimed Spanish as a "vehicular language" days before agreeing with ERC to withdraw from the Celaá Law

• Education: The PSOE rejects the offer of Citizens for Spanish to be vehicular or present in 25% of education

• Politics.Casado announces that it will repeal the Celaá Law "as soon as it" reaches "the Government", for excluding "Spanish as a vehicular language throughout Spain"

"The common language, shared in the Congress by all the deputies and deputies is Castilian", with these words the president of the Chamber, Meritxell Batet, has withdrawn the word and has prevented the interventions of the spokesmen of the CUP and BNG by wanting to address the Hemicycle in Catalan and Galician.

Batet has also been about to withdraw the floor from Gabriel Rufián who finally, after two warnings, has agreed to speak in Spanish.

EH Bildu's spokesperson,

, has also pronounced a couple of sentences in Basque but has not been rebuked because the Chamber's Rules of Procedure do allow very limited interventions in the co-official languages.

The incident has occurred in the debate of the non-law proposal of Vox relative to the adoption of the necessary measures to ensure the duty to know Spanish, the right to use it and its application to individuals, legal entities and all Administrations and public institutions of the Kingdom of Spain.

It will be a non-law proposition that will have the support of Citizens.

The PP has presented an amendment to it, which, however, has been rejected by Vox.

Various notices

The CUP deputy

has risen to the rostrum ready to address the Plenary in Catalan.

After receiving three notices for his insistence on not speaking in Spanish, the president of Congress has withdrawn the use of the floor.

The same has happened with the BNG deputy,

.

Batet has also addressed him on three occasions asking him to speak in Spanish and, given his refusal, he has had to leave the speaker's rostrum.

Bildu's spokeswoman, Mertxe Aizpurua, has addressed the plenary session from her seat accusing Vox of doing a "disservice to the Castilian by using it as an element of imposition as did the Franco regime."

"They could not then and they will not be able now," he said before pronouncing a short phrase in Basque.

PSOE, United We Can and the nationalist, pro-independence and left-wing minorities have flatly ruled out Vox's proposal because they understand that it intends to corner the co-official languages ​​and impose the use of Spanish in an intolerant way.

It so happens that the Vox deputy who has defended the initiative,

, has Catalan as his mother tongue and despite this he has emphasized that Spanish has been attacked by nationalism for decades with the complacency of the different central governments.

Aizcorbe has accused nationalism of "belittling" Spanish and elevating vernacular languages ​​to a "category of differential fact."

And he added that the intention, now to suppress the condition of vehicular language to Castilian is nothing but an attempt to prevent citizens from "choosing freely."

Balance pattern

The PP deputy,

, has defended a "diverse and plural" Spain and this is manifested in its different languages.

The PP defends that all Spaniards have a duty to know Spanish and that co-officiality must adhere to a balanced pattern so that there is no predominance of some languages ​​over others.

The

have presented an amendment to the Vox proposal asking the Government to guarantee the effective application of the Constitutional Court judgments and that Spanish continues to be the vehicular language throughout the national territory.

The PP has taken advantage of its intervention to attack the Government that, it has said, "is changing Budgets by bringing prisoners closer and by banishing Spanish from the Catalan educational system as if it were a foreign language."

The popular will appeal this measure, included in the future new Education Law, before the Constitutional Court.
