And in the second year, the agreement came.
After approving their first accounts due to an error from Más Madrid, the municipal government of PP and Ciudadanos in Madrid will have Budgets in 2021 as a pre-Christmas gift as a result of the pact with Vox.
This is how the mayor, José Luis Martínez-Almeida, signed this Wednesday;
the vice mayor, Begoña Villacís, and the spokesperson for Vox, Javier Ortega Smith.
"We must be grateful for the commitment, generosity and the height of view of Vox with the city of Madrid so that these extraordinary Budgets are a reality," said the first mayor after the signing of the agreement, whose accounts will include 40 of the 43 amendments tabled by the radical right-wing municipal group.
Among them, granting direct aid to the Godmother Foundation for pregnant women in social exclusion and against abortion or including a program to help victims of "domestic violence."
The signing of this pact, which Ciudadanos has signed although the vice mayor has not appeared in the staging, marks the first step for the vote in favor that the formation will give this Wednesday to the municipal Budgets of 2021. "From the first moment we have defended that we are a single government and the staging has been the one that Begoña Villacis and I have always maintained, "Almeida has justified his number two.
Already in recent days, the feeling in the corporation was one of "tranquility", according to various municipal sources, who were betting on "an imminent agreement" with the formation led by Javier Ortega Smith.
"This time they have treated us as priority partners and have sat down to negotiate our proposals," they acknowledge in Vox.
As EL MUNDO had already advanced on December 9, the radical right formation had put on the table mainly three demands: accept the agreements of the Plenary, advance in the investiture agreements and eliminate direct subsidies.
A point in which the municipal government had already winked in the presentation of accounts, passing much of it to competitive attendance.
Vox spokesman Javier Ortega Smith stressed that these are "useful" accounts for the capital and its citizens.
"Here it has prevailed over any consideration to make these Budgets a tool so as not to leave any Madrilenian behind," he said.
