Page Tilda of « racist » the migratory pact of the PSOE with Junts | Spain

The Delegation of Immigration Competencies to Catalonia agreed between the PSOE and Junts It is « racist » for Emiliano García-Page. The president of Castilla-La Mancha has questioned in public a pact that in his opinion goes against the social democratic principles. The Generalitat will manage border control for “in collaboration” returns and will be the one who proposes the expulsions of irregular immigrants. « I am very sorry as a socialist, as a citizen and as a democrat, » said the socialist in an act in Toledo. « That I have to say … to me that I am taken by a rather right -wing guy in my party, » he added. The Moncloa insists that the content of the pact is constitutional and in any case the state ownership of immigration competition will be maintained. That is, it could be detacked in the event that a Government of another political sign to the current of Salvador Illa intended to apply demands as the domain of Catalan that defends together to be able to access the residence in the community.

“You cannot agree on what is being agreed without selling your values, without falling into the hypocrisy of having done the opposite of what was promised. As a Democrat I blushed. I hope someone occurs to him and to remove from the argument of the wall against the extreme right, ”said the territorial leader, which has doubted the strategy that the Government has deployed in the face of the rise of the ultra -right, and in which it includes the PP within the“ denial coalition ”with Vox. “To me, since they do not come with Chinese stories of walls in front of Trumpism, in front of the extreme right. Especially when you are agreed with the worst, ”he reiterated Page.

To Page has joined the former president of the Government Felipe González, who has shown himself « totally agree » with the position of President Castellanomanche and added that immigration powers are not « neither transferable nor delegable. »

The arguments of the Castellanomanchego President resemble those who already formulated Podemos to advance his rejection of the transfer of competencies. « Once you delegate the competences in an institution that tomorrow can be in the hands of an anti -immigration party such as together and a conservative ultra -right such as Aliança Catalan, that you have no way to control it and to ensure that human rights are fulfilled, » warned its general secretary, Ione Belarra, who thinks that the PSOE has bought the framework over immigration on the right. The conglomerate of adding matches is not stone either, as it has made clear Compromís. His opposition complicates the agreement to assign immigration to Catalonia. According to his two deputies, the pact between PSOE and Juns « pays the frame of the extreme right. » Page shares that vision: « It seems serious to me and I blush that any of the progressive field, including those of adding, can end up thinking that the absolutely racist approach is assumed. »

Page has also coincided with the reading that the Juns leader has made of the agreement. “I am sorry to say that (Carles) Puigdemont is right. These are powers of a State and it is dramatic that is right because it is basically what it seeks. They are powers of a State, the 149.2 of the Constitution speaks clearly of the exclusive powers. ” The aforementioned article establishes that the State has « exclusive competence » on « nationality, immigration, emigration, foreigners and asylum right. » In the Government they refer to article 150.2 of the Fundamental Law to highlight that the Agreement will respect and comply with the Constitution. “The State may transfer or delegate to the Autonomous Communities, through Organic Law, powers corresponding to the subject of state ownership that by their very nature are susceptible to transfer or delegation. The law will provide in each case with the corresponding transfer of financial means, as well as the forms of control that the State is reserved ”, establishes that point of the Constitution.

The Extremadura PSOE also disagrees from the agreement

The PSOE of Extremadura also shown its discrepancies with the agreement announced for the Delegation of Competencies on Immigration to Catalonia. The general secretary of the party in the region, Miguel Ángel Gallardo, considers that the State policies enshrined in the Constitution must be exercised by the central government and, at the same time, has defended that there will be a closer collaboration between administrations. “Everything that is the collaboration of the administrations that are closer, is always positive and good; We advocate a relationship of mutual collaboration between institutions and loyal, with the aim of improving the mechanisms involved in this policy, which, I insist, is state, ”said the Secretary General Extremadura from Jerez de los Caballeros (Cáceres).

From the Board of Extremadura, governed by the PP its spokesman Victoria Bazaga has criticized the agreement by considering that it is a total disconnection of Catalonia with the rest of Spain. “I don't know what is left to negotiate with Junts. They said 'amnesty no' and 'Amnesty yes', work is being done on a private hacienda and now the competencies in immigration also, ”Bazaga has lamented, who has influenced that the Extremaduran government is disappointed with these agreements, because the community has many needs claimed to the central executive, but that they have not just arrived.
