María José Catalá made it clear in the debate of the state of the city of 2025 that only has eyes for Valencia. After so much rumorology about her transfer to the presidency of the Generalitat, the mayor evidenced with her plans for the future that You will need more than one legislature to address everything you announced.
The governor asked the opposition to raise the look and put “long lights” to face the future. It is good to verify that There are politicians who do not think about the short term, Sad destiny of a national policy that lives up to date and that others with whatever comes.
Unfortunately, the debate found that there is no possibility that government and opposition are understood, not even in capital matters. This not only affects Valencia, it is another of the evils that have been entrenched in Spanish politics. That and political conflict. Because One thing is the controversy, inherent in politics, its reason for being, and another the harmful conflictas Armando Zerolo explains.
Let’s put the case of the housing emergency. What does the mayor propose? State pactlegal certainty through a public rental agency and more public housing. What does the opposition propose? Topar pricescanon to empty homes to encourage rent (curious incentive), prohibit tourist apartments and more public investment. Little imagination.
Housing is essential for the system. Our democracy, although some do not want to see it, is closely linked to an economic model based on effort, savings and property. Housing generates roots, security, legacy. Recently Manuela Carmena explained the qualitative leap of the life of the Spaniards when they could access a home. In Spain at that time there was talk of being a country of owners and not of proletarians. Today we circulate in the opposite direction. And not for the free market as they say. The mayor before “long lights” must claim more lights.
