In a tense moment during the morning, before the barrage of Oriol Junqueras doubting their willingness to conclude the consultation, Artur Mas they came to tell he gathered something like “now go outside and called elections, is that what you want?”. No one present in Montserrat Verge room of the Palau de la Generalitat encouraged the president in that purpose. Quite the contrary. Convergence does not want elections to a solo extremely adverse and ERC surveys, which also wants to govern in minority autonomous community is reluctant to form a joint list. To Junqueras everything went too fast and Republicans seeking to establish their first municipal power. That day, the threat of an election is what kept up the fragile unity of the parties to the consultation pro 9-N.
The unit will be submitted back to tested in the coming days, a new meeting which assumes that the president will have to be terminated at the 9-N query as planned to celebrate. The real time-not the voluntariosos- already sold out for days. Today is exactly one month for missing 9-N. And every day that passes, the legal guarantees for a consultation of this type greatly diminish. But Mas resists recognize as the same day that supports that scenario fades will have to announce what it will do next. And still defoliating Daisy. He himself confessed on Tuesday how difficult it is to get used to “govern uncertainty.”
The uncertainty, however, can not be maintained for much longer. These days are burning the last cartridges. Discarded the option of consultation as it was ready, the staff of the president desperately seeking other avenues. Among them has considered an alternative based on a part of the law of queries has not been suspended by the Constitutional Court. Article 43 allows promote “citizen participation processes” by the Government and local councils “in the scope of its powers.” It has considered whether to invoke Article 55, on forums for citizen participation, but require the creation of a register of participants and contrast the identity thereof is very difficult in the current circumstances. Despite finding ways to circumvent the suspension decreed by the Constitution, it is likely that any of them were in turn immediately appealed by the Executive Rajoy.
The Government seems determined to prove he is running all possibilities and gain long as. But time is relentless and about the time that Mas must explain to the Catalans if pseudoconsulta organizes or holds an election. Or any of those things. In the next few hours a new meeting of the pro-9-N (CiU, ERC, ICV-EUiA CUP) matches will take place. The outcome is uncertain. You could end up with a clear division between those who want to block all costs urns are placed while the query is becoming a claiming more time and who do not wish to continue in that line. Or it can also be used to show unity when the Catalan society explain the next steps to take.
We are still at the time of staging, in the struggle between CDC and ERC by marking their independence bet. So while it remains in the public fiction that there is still time for the 9-N planned backstage alternatives are sought. Something like worlds Matrix.
The main asset is Convergència Mas. And the president is under precious credibility, fulfilling his word. But Mas has become a prisoner of that quality to ensure that the Catalans would vote and is now caught between a query that can not do and elections that do not want to because they are inappropriate and not for your party or for Catalunya.
