The Housing Law and Doñana turned into political ammunition. Crossfire between the PSOE and the PP. Discretion. We are in pre-campaign. These two issues serve the Government to seek opposition, clash and confrontation with the popular. The Executive classifies the experience and initiatives of the opposition party in terms of housing as “failed policies”, accusing their presidents of “lack of institutionality” for refusing to comply with the future law that caps rental prices and allows autonomies declare areas of tension. On the plan approved by the PP and Vox in the Andalusian Parliament on Doñana, maximum harshness: “irresponsible”.
One of the Government’s objectives was to have the Housing Law ready before the May 28 elections, so that it could serve as an electoral argument. The norm allows rents to be capped and allows the regions, competent in housing matters, to declare stressed areas where prices are skyrocketing. But it does not oblige them or establish an obligation mechanism. But La Moncloa sees this issue as an opportunity to “portray” the PP, to confront them.
“It would be good if Feijóo began to correct the attitude that borders on the lack of institutionality of their presidents, when in the face of some work on the Housing Law the first thing they say is that they are going to break the law, unacceptable. That the first thing they say is that they are going to break the law”, said Isabel Rodríguez, spokesperson for the Executive. “But, of course, it’s easy to conclude that when the boss breaks the Constitution, it’s easy to conclude that it’s a house brand.”
Housing as an opportunity to oppose models and confront. And Doñana to endorse the strategy. The decision of PP and Vox has caused great anger in the Government. And there is an opportunity, as happened in Castilla y León in terms of abortion, to unite the PP with Vox in the same pack, censoring and warning of their policies, in this case environmental.
The Minister of Agriculture, Luis Planas, has been very forceful against the Junta de Andalucía. He has described the bill that regulates the irrigated areas of five municipalities located to the north of the Doñana Forest Crown, as “illegal” because, he has pointed out, “it arrogates competence in matters of water that corresponds to the Government and not to the communities”, and “unreal” because “he wants to distribute what does not exist, an availability of water that does not exist in that area. It is an irresponsible action because it creates expectations that are not going to be satisfied”.
