Return of the Jedi, by Sergei Sol

Former British Prime Minister Boris Johnson has written a biography of Winston Churchill, The worker Churchill, Which confirms that “One man can make a difference and change the course of history.”. Perhaps yes. Without Churchill, the Conservatives could have reached an agreement with Adolf Hitler in 1940 when he had already launched his offensive in Europe. The question is: what if this is the case in the case of the return we are dealing with? That is, the return of so-called legitimacy itself would turn everything upside down to the point that Catalonia culminated in independence And with the impact of this return in particular, as if it were the turning point for “changing the course of history,” like Churchill’s storming, according to Johnson, into that Europe threatened by totalitarianism.

Apparently, this is how the environment closest to the legitimate president sees it, such as ANC President Louis Lach, one of the most powerful and influential Republicans. “It’s a lot and that’s all”the former Minister of the Council of the Republic sometimes said. A large part of the leadership of his party also presents – and this is another thing that everyone must believe – the same vision, which inevitably takes on a messianic character. They claim that he is the “moral” leader or authority, an intangible value, a spiritual leader, invincible, and practically to be worshipped. They seem to say that with him “the Force accompanies us.” It is perhaps true that the Empire trembles as if it had before it the best Roger de Flore and his distributors. It is no less true that, beyond these more important considerations, everyone acknowledges that the legitimate President is the absolute leader, in the most material and political sense. At least in private. Nothing of substance moves in the party without his consent.

Let’s go then. Let’s solve some of the unknowns on Earth beyond the mysterious imperial aura that has been built over the character, as if he has been given some kind of supernatural power – a laser sword in his hand – that can perform miracles, which he probably does.

Yes this time?

He has promised it countless times since 2017. Many of his confidants have suggested it. Some even pleaded, out of national consciousness or belief, that by 2018 and 2019 a sudden return could have blown up the political chessboard. Now, seven years later, things seem to be going well. The return is no longer just electoral bait. Crossing the border has an immediate impact. Investment statusto double the pressure on the ERC to bow to the will of Junts and swallow the electoral repetition. This is the legitimate party goal after a secret result – decided only by the Republican slap – which left the independence without a majority and Salvador Illa clearly in the lead.

Is there a Puddimon?

We don’t have sex! It’s always been a breakup. Al Jazeera or elections. The initial calculation. From May 2024, independence will not even count in the counting of the votes of the Catalan coalition. Initially, the legitimate one – which fed this possibility – was intended to be elected – yes – by the votes of the pacifist council. An intelligence that has neither head nor feet.

“Juntaires”, or “Puigdemontism” in general, shows in an uncomplicated form an integral salvation, compatible with the obsessive fixation of the republicans, who bear the blows of all frustrations and impotence.

The second question is whether Repeating elections would push the Peace and Security Council to retreat.Nothing predicts that, at least demographically. However, on repeat, it will take a massive bite from the ERC to attract votes to the Peace and Security Council. But that does not guarantee a pro-independence majority in parliament either. The irony – one of many – is that it now turns out that Puigdemont needs it. Expand the base, Because no matter how much he sweeps the ERC – an unacknowledged desire – he will still face a clearly hostile parliament in Catalonia if he does not broaden – rather than swallow – the pro-independence voter base.

There are those who consider that a second round is necessary to digest the agreement with Illa. It is a matter of the stomach. Understandable, but visceral. If Illa (PSC) performs better and ERC performs worse, then it is clear that ERC will agree to more weakness. If not Power Draw a parliament with the opposite sign to the current one. Maybe yes.

what or who

While Republicans need to focus on the “what,” the House members focus only on the “who.” Republicans have chosen to regroup in opposition. They are betting on programmatic agreements for the country, consciously or unconsciously, which, whatever agreement they reach, will be disbelieved by the right and vice versa, if it is not considered an act of treason to the motherland. It is already known that there is only one step to move from the good side of the force to the bad side. A bad piece on the loom. The cold that awaits them if they defy Legitimacy It will be the Bible.

The “junta”, and Puigdemont in general, show an uncomplicated messianism, compatible with the obsessive fixation on the Republicans, who bear the blows of all frustrations and impotence. Waterloo has left in the memory box all the rebellious vigilance and all the rhetorical pronouncements of recent years. Now, everything depends on the response, as a formal act of compensation. The legitimate is the beginning and the end. And the absolute priority became to regain the presidency of the state itself. Hence also the improbable maneuver – another one of the fantastic kind – of agreeing on compensation with the PSOE of 155.

Republican hardline decision

Everything points to that. The Republican leadership reached a fundamental agreement with the Peace and Security Council. In exchange for the inaugural votes, which are the cornerstone of financing – the mother of all the eggs of all the Kaboris. What could happen is unknown with a confusing struggle and a party that is not in its best shape. With an additional problem: the credibility of commitment to agreements, which is also affected by the poor implementation of the budget. Are there mechanisms to ensure commitment?

Publicly, since independence, no one has yet spoken in favor of the agreement, except for a few personal statements. The veteran Joan Tarda shines, with more or less success, alone in this department. On the contrary, yes, even from the same ranks. Now with an external escalation. The leadership of the Gant and all the usual media artillery. And also Puigdemont himself – who has become more assertive lately, not to mention prematurely biting the hand that should help him – and who now aspires to drag the Republican bases to crush them afterwards. Or the ANC president himself, in perfect harmony with Gantz/Puigdemont. For the moment, both with a few decibels so as not to cause a backlash at the entrance. Heavy artillery is usually a reaction.

Donkey of all times

Salvador Illa is not Jose Montilla. True. However, the converging world told Montilla everything at that time. This PSC is not specific to Montilla de “We love you very much Zapatero, but we love Catalonia more“Nor Pascual Maragall,” recalls Legitim. But what Legitim does not remember is that he himself, in 2003, blasphemed Maragall’s trilogy with the same arguments he now uses to deny any understanding that does not conform to the traps that pass through it, that memory is not so fragile.

The irony of the appointment of Salvador Illa as head of the Generalitat is that he has finally integrated the Chamber of Deputies into the government. At the moment, it seems very clear that the Republicans will go into opposition anyway. Unless the armed movement rejects the agreement, which would then mean that the Aragon government could remain in power until Carnival 2025. But the result of the installation, the entry into government of the Chamber of Deputies after having themselves destroyed the budgets and been the spark of electoral progress, will be difficult to digest and explain. Needless to say, the memory is still fresh, of what happened in recent years in Barcelona’s City Hall.

It is no less true that the legitimist was the architect of the check in the Aragonese government – which wanted to be a checkmate – from day one and without relent. Not only did he blow up the government agreement, but he also ostracized its co-author: Jordi Sánchez. In addition, the President of Parliament, who, thanks to the votes of the Equity and Reconciliation Council, quickly acted as a stubborn leader of the opposition. So much so that at first he silenced Illa. And the bottom line: it was Puigdemont who promoted and ordered the filing of a motion of censure against Aragonés, which took the form of a question of confidence in the face of the impossibility of presenting an alternative candidate to Aragonés. It should not be easy for the Republicans to forget that. Or maybe it is.
