The Government has managed to approve the General State Budgets for 2022, complying with the demands that ERC and Bildu have raised on paper and has completed the sum of votes necessary to carry out the accounts with a range of concessions to minority formations such as Más País, Teruel Existe or PDeCAT.

In the gutter there have been hundreds of proposals from the rest of the parties vetoed or rejected with the votes of the PSOE, United We Can and their nationalist and pro-independence partners.

The accounts have obtained green light amid a shower of criticism from the right, liberals and even formations nationalist and independence, relegated, they also last for

the benefit of Republicans and Catalan

nationalists

.

Broadcast cartoons in Basque in Navarra; pay the large audiovisual content platforms to produce or dub in Catalan, Galician or Basque; or committing to abolish budget items to improve the central police station of the National Police in Via Laietana in Barcelona have been, in the eyes of the Government, more beneficial requests for the general interest than foreseeing a multi-year allocation of 700 million euros to rebuild La Palma and begin to offer security and certainty to its population, as requested by the Canary Coalition or reduce taxes for the self-employed as proposed by Ciudadanos and the PP.

The bill for the concessions made to ERC and Bildu is not too high: around 100 million euros.

On this occasion, more has been tried to satisfy requests in the key of national construction, the "entelequia", in the words of the Navarrese deputy

Carlos García Adanero

.

Precisely, this paucity of funds makes the opposition suspect of the existence of unspeakable assignments that only with time will begin to reveal themselves.

"Prisoners for Budgets", insists the Navarrese deputy.

The 'forgotten' proposals

On this occasion, the acrimony of the debate has raised its decibels because the accounts for 2022, and with them the legislature, are settled on formations that advocate, as the PP insists, for "dynamiting the Transition, overthrowing the Constitution and ending the Crown ".

For oblivion, there have been proposals such as a fiscal moderation plan, measures to ensure that European funds have an impact on the self-employed, raise the limit of personal income tax deductions for pension plans, favor investment in newly created companies, deductions for hiring domestic service or keeping the VAT for tourism, hospitality, accommodation and maritime and air transport of passengers at 4%, as requested by Cs.

Reduce taxes worth 10,000 million, lowering personal income tax and eliminating property taxes, inheritance and donations and patrimonial transfers for the purchase of habitual residence, a housing plan for young people, halve the number of ministries and advisers, dedicate 430 million to education at the lowest levels, an MIR for teachers similar to that of health workers, measures to boost business in unpopulated areas, specific aid for Soria, Cuenca and Teruel or more money for fiber optics in white areas, such as claimed the PP.

On the left flank, proposals such as those of the BNG, which demanded 100 million to transform Navantia or the creation of an energy storage center as an alternative to the closure of the As Pontes plant, have also been abandoned.

And more socially, just one example: the menstrual leave of eight hours a month that Más País proposed for women.

The balance of the rejection on this occasion exceeds, and by far, the 3,000 proposals.
