CRISIS IN FORMENTERA

Alcaraz resigns and makes way for the motion of censure against Cordoba in Formentera

In the document presented to the Consell Insular, Alcaraz assures that he has always acted "in defense of the general interest of the island and its people" and that he would "repeat" everything he has done in this legislature.

José Manuel Alcaraz has presented this Thursday his resignation as councilor of the political group Sa Unió PP-Compromís in the Consell de Formentera, a condition raised by the groups of the left, PSOE and GxF, to agree a motion of censure that allows to unseat the current president, Llorenç Córdoba.

In the document presented to the Consell Insular, Alcaraz assures that he has always acted “in defense of the general interest of the island and its people” and that “he would “repeat” everything he has done in this legislature. The former vice president of the institution also adds that “no person can ever be above the general interest” and that if it is in his power “todo something to improve the current political situation“, he must do it. This is what he transmitted to the assembly of Sa Unió held on Tuesday, from which he received all his support and to which he has thanked for their help during this time, he explains. Alcaraz points out that “given the political situation” that the Consell de Formentera is going through, and to “make possible” a new government in the institution, he presents his resignation. PSOE and GxF had asked for the resignation of Alcaraz as a “basic and essential” condition to agree on the motion of censure, as they consider him “co-responsible” for the institutional crisis, which they have described as “a fight of chairs” between President Cordoba and the resignation. The other condition was that the candidate be from Compromís and not from the Partido Popular, within the Sa Unió coalition. However, the assembly of Sa Unió has chosen the PP councilor, Verónica Castelló as candidate, although it also remains open to the consensus that emerges from the negotiations for the motion of censure. In this regard, the spokesperson of GxF, Alejandra Ferrer, values that with the resignation of Alcaraz “the first step has been taken” and that now a “proposal has to be made to find a consensus candidate”, which has to be from Compromís, a condition that was transferred “in the two meetings held”.“It depends on Sa Unió that Llorenç Córdoba does not finish the year as president“, assures Ferrer.

Consensus President in Formentera

The other sine qua non condition for GxF and PSOE to facilitate Sa Unió’s return to power is the figure of the future president. Although Javier Serra has escaped the censure of the Code of Ethics Commission despite the manifest incompatibility of his participation in Marina Formentera, the company of Angel Bustos dedicated to the exploitation of marinas, the president of Compromis, a party coalition with the PP in Sa Unió, would be ruled out to assume the rod of command of Formentera. All eyes are on Óscar Portas, former councilor of Culture and Heritage, also affiliated to Compromís and who has been acting as unofficial spokesman for the coalition in matters relating to the crisis that began more than a year ago. In this line, Verónica Castelló would be ruled out as Córdoba’s successor.
