Rajoy is in favor of not making traumatic movements in the structure of the party in the coming weeks, except for those who are forced to do so by the judicial drift of the summary opened in the National Court on the former treasurer of the PP. As El Confidencial Digital has learned from sources close to the president, Mariano Rajoy only has one dismissal in his mind in the national leadership of the party: that of Javier Arenas . Let each stick hold its candle The President of the Government has already decided to dispense with the former president of the Andalusian PP as soon as Judge Ruz decides to charge him with the Bárcenas case . “ The moment they charge him he will go away ,” a person close to Mariano Rajoy explains to ECD. The opinion of the head of the Executive is to apply in the party the famous phrase that María Dolores de Cospedal uttered at a press conference last January: “In the PP, whoever makes it pays and everyone holds their own .” It is the maxim that Rajoy plans to apply to Arenas when he is charged. The same sources assure that Javier Arenas is “ emotionally devastated .” The still leader of the PP has confessed to people around him that the Bárcenas case has taken a very high toll on him and that he feels dejected .
The suppression of parliamentarians at the national and regional level was one of the most ambitious proposals that Rajoy presented in his candidacy for the 2011 general elections. However, the PP's plans to reduce deputies have been truncated in Special Database the majority of communities. autonomous because of the opposition. The failure in Madrid will be repeated in three other regions The first community in which the PP could not carry out the project of reducing deputies was Madrid. The 'popular' proposal did not obtain the support of two-thirds of the Assembly, due to the negative votes of PSM and IU, so the law was not approved. The same case threatens to be repeated in three other regions: the Balearic Islands, the Valencian Community and La Rioja, where the PP's votes are also not enough for the reduction of deputies to be applied. -- In the case of the Balearic Islands , the proposal is expected to reach the regional parliament in the coming months. The idea proposed by the executive is the suppression, not only of deputies, but also of other regional positions . To the dismay of the popular, the socialist party of this autonomy has already publicly expressed its refusal. -- The Valencian Community experiences a similar situation. The regional government wants to eliminate 20 deputies from the 99 it currently has , and reduce some members of other advisory bodies.
However, in this case it will not be possible either since the PSOE has also expressed its opposition. -- La Rioja also needs a two-thirds majority, that is, the support of other parliamentary groups in addition to the PP. The reduction would be from 33 deputies to a maximum of 25. Galicia and Castilla La Mancha, the only autonomies in which the reform will be applied In Galicia the 'popular' do not need two-thirds of the votes to approve the project. The idea is to go from 75 deputies to a maximum representation in the regional Parliament of 61 members, which would imply a saving for the State of five million euros. The autonomy that has made the most progress with the proposal is Castilla La Mancha , where last July it was approved by the Cortes. The only thing missing is its ratification in the Congress of Deputies. If it finally goes ahead, the autonomy chaired by Cospedal would eliminate a minimum of 14 deputies from the 49 it currently has, and would save 1,700,000 euros. The application of the reform in both autonomous communities will therefore mean the elimination of at least 28 deputies and a total saving of 6,700,000 euros.
