• Parlament.First purge of Borràs: Relieves the secretary who faced the independence movement

  • Catalonia.Puigdemont demands to control the 'procés' from Waterloo in exchange for making Aragonès president of the Generalitat

Esquerra Republicana de Catalunya (ERC) cautiously maintains its commitment to maintaining the strategic alliance in

Madrid

with Pedro Sánchez with the aim that the President of the Government materialize pardons or amnesty for prisoners convicted of sedition and allow a sovereign consultation in the next years.

In this way and despite his radical gesticulation during the 14-F campaign and his resignation to form a tripartite government with the PSC and the

commons

, ERC has decided to continue being

or a preferential partner of the Social Powered Government and offer them a margin until 2023, when the current legislature ends, so that they can specify the demands that they pose in their

Investiture pre-agreement with the CUP

A sort of separatist extension to Sánchez that is reflected in the preliminary agreement that the Republicans and the anti-establishment signed on Sunday night to invest in

Pere Aragonès

as president of the

Generalitat

.

However, under the title

A new cycle to win

, the document has yet to be approved by the different assemblies of

the CUP

, with the uncertainty that within the amalgamation of parties and sectors that make it up there are, as

Endavant

, has already expressed reluctance to support it.

Among other reasons, because the "roadmap" agreed with

Oriol Junqueras

moderates his usual radicality. Waiting for this vote and the investiture agreement that ERC and

JxCat

, who are negotiating with forced marches the distribution of the ministries of the new Catalan government and the role that the escaped former president will play

Carles puigdemont

and the spectral

Council for the Republic

, the Government already knows that those of Oriol Junqueras have chosen to maintain the channels of dialogue with the Spanish Executive, even buying from it "from skepticism" the "bilateral negotiation table", which has only met twice without results concrete and that the former president of the Generalitat

Quim Torra

described as a deception by Sánchez. The main requirement of the CUP, in this sense, is that control mechanisms are activated so that periodically it is constant if the negotiation forum with the Government has "paid off" and "decide the steps to follow." , without ruling out that at any time the dialogue table may be terminated. Specifically, they propose that the "reissue of accounts" to verify that Sánchez does not delay in time the realization of his requests is carried out in two ways: a public one at

Parlament

and another in a more discreet way in a dialogue body formed by the main separatist parties and entities.

The latter will be the one who has the last word to decide the strategy of the Generalitat in the event that negotiations with the Government break down. ERC also undertakes to prepare a new insurrectionary scenario such as the one in the autumn of 2017, by "the way that the independence movement as a whole values ​​as the most appropriate derived from the principles of strategic consensus and the accumulation of sufficient social and political forces to make it effective."

As a priority, they point out, through a self-determination referendum like the one on October 1, as a gesture to the CUP, whose leaders

Carles riera

Y

Dolors Sabater

they traveled yesterday to

Waterloo

To try to convince Puigdemont of the goodness of the agreement, Aragonès agrees to submit in 2023 to a question of confidence in the Parliament.

In return, the anti-system would approve the Generalitat's budgets. The decalogue of measures also has a markedly interventionist social and economic aspect, which is distancing JxCat from the agreement.

Thus, ERC and the CUP advocate taking control of the rental price and suspending evictions "until the right to housing is guaranteed through the public park."

Another of the star measures is the start of a pilot plan to deploy in

Catalonia

"A universal basic income" and that it will come into force throughout 2022. Likewise, ERC and the CUP have agreed to "regain public control of energy" and "be able to define the energy transition model" with the creation of a public energy company The control and initiation of an internal purge in the body of the

Mossos d'Esquadra

It is another of ERC's concessions to the anti-system, starting with prohibiting the use of Foam bullets and not taking part in evictions.
