"Finally I will be Councilman Ordizia"
Mar 16
I say finally spite of them some, which I know they weigh a lot. Last week the Central Electoral Board agreed to confirm the mandate to the City of Ordizia to facilitate my taking office as a councilor, replacing Maialen Galparsoro, who was elected as the first of the coalition list Ezker BATUA-Berdeak-ARALAR, in the last municipal elections and has left the council for personal reasons.
All tricks and loopholes that have tried from the direction of Ezker BATUA to change the order of the elected councilors have failed. Finally, current law has imposed stating that the 5 th candidate is ahead of the 9 th. All their efforts to declare me third councilor, instead of first, have been defeated by the law itself.
EB's efforts, had reason to confessable hardly a political organization. His objective was clear, at the cost of it was, could not allow it to be a councilor. And they knew that if eventually led to his traps that should replace the third theory, would not agree to take possession. I've said several times in different forums, there are several reasons not to take the third council, and I think BE should not grab it now.
First, I believe that neither we, nor need to take advantage of the law of parties to hold a council that represents another political project which we repudiate for his advocacy of violence, but we hope that by abandoning the strategy to integrate and defend the space they really have. It is an essential democratic principle.
Second, membership in a coalition or electoral alliance involves consideration of the sparring partners. Take the third council implies that Aralar, break the coalition, and that will be an unhappy ending to the illusion that sparked the ordiziarras joint bid, which led us to the best results in the history of Ezker Batua. Aralar criticism that will break, but EB will not have standing to criticize it because it will cause breakage.
Third, it is unnecessary for the policy that affects ordiziarras us to catch this third council. It will not change anything, the government team is solid, and EB-ARALAR what to do is be political opposition. In this case, the voice will be present, but one vote more or less will not change the result of any municipal decision.
Fourth and finally, because it expresses the miseries of this organization. The companion, who was the ninth candidate and you want to take the council at the expense of whatever, so, after he announced his retirement three years ago. It does, without the need for the organization, except to prevent my access to the council and confronted me. A person who has sold the bear's skin on all sides before the hunt. I have insulted and criticized publicly and notoriously, without any discretion or modesty. A person who claims responsibility for an assembly of Ordizia EB does not exist, and has not called never, not even members of the candidacy throughout this critical situation, not face to face with me. It is the first time publicly criticize this person and I will not enlarge further, because I want to discuss personal issues but I think if you analyze a little bit, consistently should not take the council.
I think it's clear. We should not take that council. And if EB and Julen Carrasco (the ninth candidate) catch the post, they will against the will of another coalition council and me, against the will of the majority of the candidate of the coalition, against the will of the ordiziarras who voted that list. If the direction of EB, again, does not respect this, do not deserve my respect and I reserve the corresponding actions. As I promised not to take the third council, and so he announced to the City Clerk, if they catch it I will have to work accordingly. EB is increasingly foreign to my opinion, it's hard to identify with these leaders and the future of their actions. There can be corrected.
Yesterday I received a call after 8 months waiting for an official of EB (Ubaldo) to treat the inauguration. Tells you that things being so, I will not join them, if they do what they want with Ordizia, the ordiziarras, starting with me, we passed them. I reminded him that and try to talk to them and received no answer and traps and rocks on all sides. That after what I have done, is really very difficult to remedy the situation, except to acknowledge and correct errors immediately. Sorry for my name, because I do not know what degree of responsibility and do the dirty work took the "bad guys" who proclaimed messenger. Precondition for talking, not the third councilman takes office at the next plenary.
I have little time to practice as a councilor, but as I always have in my life I'll try to do with the maximum coherence, in this case personal. I offer to each and all to listen and try ordiziarras channel, within my means, concerns, complaints and proposals, responding to leftist positions. I will try to create a new channel of communication taking advantage of new technologies to react Ordizia.
For now, the next day March 26, 2010, will take possession of the council in regular full consistory. By law, I will promise to defend the constitution, the monarch and stuff. In order to see that I can think of that is simple, to be a little original. Like at first, said some people will weigh, I also know that many people are happy, of Ordizia Ordizia and outside. For all of them, I will do what I can as best as I can.
