Spain celebrated the Constitution Day thinking about how to reform it – The Portrait of Today

The 6 of December is commemorated from 38 years ago, the anniversary of the Spanish Constitution. However, on this occasion, not, it has seemed that politicians of different parties brought together to celebrate the event, but rather to leave it sitting their claims of reform.

it Has been like meet to celebrate the anniversary of a wedding, and take advantage of the encounter to talk about the divorce….

unlike previous occasions, when it came to the seventeen autonomous presidents, in this opportunity, they made only five of them, three from the PSOE, Javier Fernandez, Guillermo Fernández Vara, and Emiliano Garcia Page and two of the PP, Cristina Cifuentes and Alberto Nuñez Feijoo.

Some leaders from the autonomous region, have been justified on the grounds that they had to attend local celebrations, while Susana Díaz, who had planned to attend; the consequences of the barrage of water in Andalusia, the did cancel the trip to the capital of the kingdom.

As is traditional in this commemoration, not attended or the basque country, Iñigo Urkullu, or the Catalan Carles Puigdemont. The mayor of Madrid, if it was present but not attended by Pablo Iglesias and Iñigo Errejón, We may, being replaced by Echenique and Carolina Bescansa.

While PP, PSOE and CITIZENS, is manifest contrary to a "constituent process", we CAN, clear of them and bet for a new text, reflecting "the demands of the social majority".

The three formations named, agree that the appropriate method must be developed in the framework of representative democracy, and in parliament. In addition, consider the need for a minimum consensus to delimit the objectives of the change, in any case, it would include the essential aspects of the text, in effect, that is to say; the unit of the Spanish territory, national sovereignty, equality between spaniards and political form of the State.

In contrast, for WE, the party of Pablo Iglesias, it is essential to take the debate "to the streets" on the need for a new Constitution. This training, the third of the Congress has 71 members and have strength sufficient to require a referendum on any agreement review. It suffices that the required 35 deputies, that is, 10% of the members of either of the two Cameras, in the 15 days following their approval.

The first opposition party (PSOE), you want the reform of the Magna Carta, the government is not a supporter of adventures. While for Javier Fernandez, owner of the Manager of the PSOE, "the best way to defend it is to reform it", for the PP," in time of desolation, it is better not to move"

For its part, the nationalist parties are not willing to discuss on possible improvements or upgrades to the 1978 Constitution, they pretend to a constituent process, because to them, the current is only a piece of paper, as for the formation abode, we CAN, between these formations add up to more than a hundred members, which requires a detailed analysis, before proposing a hypothetical reform of the Magna Carta, but you can’t count on them.

With reference to a possible constitutional reform, there is a mismatch between the PP and the PSOE, on the necessity of preserving the unity and national sovereignty, where the meaning of nation "is a concept that must have a meaning and the meaning of nation, is no other than that set out in article 2 of the Constitution and that we did not ask to change", said Javier Fernandez president of the Manager of the PSOE.

In a similar sense is expressed, the president of Citizens, Albert Rivera, who claimed "courage and responsibility to find the necessary consensus". Also rejected the notion of Spain as a "nation of nations" and agreed to start work, previously will be necessary to establish "the extent of reform that is intended".
