Two municipalities of Grenade They changed mayors this Thursday, December 18 and in both cases it was thanks to a motion of censure. In Deck pinsa town of less than ten thousand inhabitants very close to the capital, Henry … Medinahistoric member of the PSOE in the province, passed the baton of command to Ivan Fernándezsince UI, while I was in Snowfalla town in the Alpujarras where just over a thousand inhabitants live and close to the border with the province of Almería, also socialist. Dolores Pasteur was replaced by his comrades Rafael Lopez.
Both motions were preceded by controversy. In Pinos Puente, because IU united its two votes with the two of the PP and the three of the Independent Union of the Municipality of Pinos Puente. This led to the exclusion of advisors from the left coalition, while The people respected the decision of their representatives in the city. No action against them is therefore expected.
The extraordinary plenary session during which the motion of censure was debated was bitter, as expected. The spokesperson for the PP, Cristina Guzmanwho did not want to speak until the session to give his version before the Pineros, affirmed that his party had considered that it was “time to stop sectarian politics”. He downplayed the fact that he now has IU as a partner. “For the remainder of the term there will be no ideologies“, he said.
Iván Fernández, who is already the new councilor, recalled that IU supported the socialists but stopped doing so “due to the lack of coordination and effective participation.” He came to say that the socialists abused his trust: “It’s one thing to be good and another to be stupid.“.
Medina dishonored the parties signing the motion who united: “They all ally even with the devil if necessary, to overthrow the PSOE”, said the former mayor, and, addressing the PP and the independents, he reminded them that they are leaving the town hall “from the party that obtained the fewest votes” in the 2023 municipal elections.
In Nevada, the mayor has so far not attended the extraordinary plenary session. His “continuous absences” and the fact that he month of leave due to illness “without giving any explanation” and without allowing another person to replace her were the reasons given by her five party colleagues to relieve her. The people were “neglected” and the “institutional crisis” worsened during this period.
The motion was adopted with these five votes, while the three PP councilors voted against. The provincial PSOE has not clarified at the moment If Nevada’s new mayor will govern with his initials or if you prefer to support the outgoing mayor.
