Barcelona, ​​Spain .- The nomination paper Junts Yes, that integrates the Democratic Convergence and Esquerra Republicana, working around the clock to try to present an electoral offer that goes beyond the independence bid. However, pending the final program, the opposite message began to shine both in terms of social policy and the evening to clarify whether Artur Mas, number four on the list, it will be really a candidate for president.

The only public document that sets the basis of the independence bid is a compendium of four pages in which the plan is explained to declare independence in 18 months if Junts pel Yes wins the elections of September 27 , reported the Spanish newspaper El Pais.

The social project of the application is also drawn, without giving details, . However, nothing says the agreement document that the Democratic Convergence of Catalonia (CDC), Esquerra Republicana de Catalunya (ERC) and the sovereignists entities closed last month for Artur Mas continues to occupy the presidency of the Generalitat despite having been relegated to fourth place in the list.

This point is what generates the first distortion in the speech of the application. Number one on the list, Raul Romeva, was the first question that is necessarily Mas President of the Generalitat. He stressed that this is not written. Democratic Convergence immediately corrected the statements of the applicant’s role by ensuring that more in the next government “is spoken and well spoken.”

However, in recent days, Esquerra Republicana returned to give air to the idea But a possible withdrawal of ensuring that Junts pel Yes and Yes that is Pot Catalunya, the candidacy of Initiative and we should work together after the elections and even talk of a unity government. ERC insists on this idea even though the list of the left made it clear he does not want to But the next president.

But dissent has also come to the list of Catalunya Yes it is Pot, as its candidate has had to correct some statements that left the door open to invest another member of President Junts pel Yes But if opt for departing. Convergence believes that the ERC bet to collaborate with Catalunya Yeah it’s Pot “is nothing more than a message to those who, being independence, torn between a list or the other.” In fact, Artur Mas made clear on Tuesday that voting list Initiative and we it was a “no” to independence.

The other aspect that has shown cracks within the candidacy of Mas and Junqueras is the unfulfilled promise of the Catalan government to reform the minimum integration income in 2011 after stop this subsidy receivable 9,000 families by cuts of the Generalitat. Romeva said that we must promote reform and to focus on a guaranteed minimum income citizens, an option that convergence has criticized on numerous occasions. Yes Junts paper expects to finalize these aspects in its election manifesto. Meanwhile it gives arguments rivals left.
