Antoni Bayona, who was a lawyer in the Parliament of Catalonia until 2018, wrote a book titled Surviving the process, where he said that, despite the Catalan pact tradition, there have been moments in its history that have demonstrated the inability to manage situations. of political and social tension. In these cases, he has revealed a lack of endurance that has suddenly made him say enough is enough, forget the culture of agreement and take things to all or nothing. And he concludes: “These turns are dangerous because, to make them, it is necessary to know well the springs of power and what it means. Some people are familiar with power, but others are not. Catalonia seems to be in the latter case.”
I have the feeling that JxCat is tempted to force the machine unnecessarily to show ERC that they do know how to beat Pedro Sánchez, while at the same time putting the judiciary on the ropes. As in the Basque joke, Puigdemont's party does not know if he is going to Rolex or mushrooms, if he wants to obtain resources for Catalonia to recover or if he wants to teach the State a lesson.
This week, the PNV has managed to sign the agreement for the acquisition of the Loyola barracks, in addition to achieving the modification of the basic law so that municipalities with more than 4,000 inhabitants can be segregated and the priority of autonomous agreements over state ones. . Three commitments of the Government for the investiture, which have to do with things, what Ortega would say.
Meanwhile, Minister Félix Bolaños has had to dedicate his time to giving explanations to several magistrates and informing them that the Government considers that judges should not attend the investigative commissions of Congress in accordance with the Constitution and the law of the Judiciary. The intervention of Míriam Nogueras, spokesperson for JxCat, against a series of magistrates whom he described as “indecent”, has generated great discomfort. But none of all this is going to improve the lives of Catalans, nor will it facilitate the amnesty. Nothing is gained by putting the finger in the eyes of the judges, especially when the person doing so does not have glasses to perceive reality well.
