The leader of the PP, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, supported the Valencian president Juanfran Pérez Llorca at an event in Castellón. He announced that, if he reaches the government, he will improve regional financing and aid in reconstruction after the DANA. He criticized Sánchez's Executive for corruption and for lack of attention to citizens. For the Valencians, these promises could translate into relief in public services and housing if they materialize.
The promise of financing and its impact on regional management 💰
The improvement of regional financing proposed by Feijóo would imply an increase in the resources available to the Generalitat Valenciana. This would allow addressing infrastructure and digital services projects, such as the modernization of electronic administration or the implementation of sensors for emergency management. However, the technical viability depends on the reform of the distribution system and the central government's capacity to transfer fiscal powers. Citizens view these promises with skepticism.
The flood of promises inundating Castellón 🌊
Feijóo arrived in Castellón with a hose and bucket, ready to bail out the historic Valencian debt. He promised financing, reconstruction, and even Noah's Ark if necessary. But as in the plumber joke, first you have to fix the central government's pipe. Meanwhile, Valencians look to the sky: some to see if it rains, others to see if promises fall. At least the event had air conditioning, which they have plenty of.
