Canary Islands has been without completing any protected housing for almost four years, despite the high demand and the construction plans of the administrations, which reflects a serious deficit in the supply of public housing in the archipelago. #ViviendaProtegida #Canarias #CrisisInmobiliaria (translated)

The best news from yesterday along with the confluences in the Canary Islands, Valencia, Balearic Islands, and Aragon is an example that it just takes a little bit of will and agreeing on the simple. We are going to win the Senate and we are going to maintain the Congress. (translated)

Víctor Egío stated that on Thursday he had offered Izquierda Unida to lead the candidacy for the Region of Murcia and that, the next day, they were even negotiating the name of a joint candidacy of IU, Podemos, and Sumar: Left Front of the Region of Murcia. According to what he wrote, the agreement followed models agreed upon in the Canary Islands and Valencia and negotiated at that time in Extremadura, until the federal leadership of IU ordered it to be halted. Egío argued that the tenth seat in the region could have been for Penélope Luna and that, after the blockage, it would probably end up in the hands of Vox. He added that it would be difficult to explain the breakup after years of joint work in the Regional Assembly, the municipalities, and the social movements. #Unidad #Izquierda #Murcia (translated)

The polls for the general elections on November 29 in the Canary Islands indicate that the PSOE would maintain its leadership with 6 deputies, while the PP would reduce its representation to 5, and VOX could increase its number of seats to 3, suggesting an electoral landscape similar to that of the July 2023 elections. #EleccionesCanarias #PSOE #Vox (translated)

The Broad Front and Podemos did not reach an agreement to present themselves united in the elections on November 29, which has led both parties to run separately in constituencies such as Madrid and Catalonia, despite certain territorial agreements in other communities like the Canary Islands and the Valencian Community. #EleccionesGenerales #FrenteAmplio #Podemos (translated)

The PSOE and the Broad Front have registered an electoral coalition called 'Senate of Progress' for the elections on November 29, with joint lists in all provinces of Spain, except for Catalonia and the Canary Islands, with the aim of challenging the absolute majority of the PP in the Senate. #SenadoDeProgreso #PSOE #Elecciones29N (translated)

The Broad Front and Podemos have failed in their attempt to reach an agreement for a single ballot in the general elections on November 29, only coming to limited understandings in the Valencia Community and the Canary Islands, which leaves the left in a compromised situation at the start of the election campaign. #EleccionesGenerales #FrenteAmplio #Podemos (translated)

The operation to unite on the left fails, as Podemos and the Broad Front will only run jointly in the Community of Valencia and the Canary Islands on November 29, while in Madrid they will go separately and in Catalonia they will support ERC instead of Ada Colau. #Podemos #FrenteAmplio #UniónDeLaIzquierda (translated)

The Broad Front and Podemos did not manage to reach an agreement to present themselves together in the general elections, resulting in separate candidacies in most of Spain's constituencies, except in the Canary Islands and the Valencian Community. #FrenteAmplio #Podemos #EleccionesGenerales (translated)

Antonio Maestre wrote that the Frente Amplio had sent Podemos a proposal that included a priority position on the list in the Community of Madrid and Catalonia, as well as its incorporation with full rights in all the constituencies where the Frente Amplio was presented. In territories such as the Valencian Community, Aragón, the Balearic Islands, and the Canary Islands, it proposed joint candidacies with Compromís, the Chunta Aragonesista, ARA Mes, or Nueva Canarias, among other parties. According to Maestre, the proposal also envisaged that Podemos would appoint one of the spokespersons of the parliamentary group, a program focused, among other issues, on the right to housing, public services, salaries, equality, LGTBI+ rights, and energy transition, and an equitable distribution of resources among the organizations of the Frente Amplio. #FrenteAmplio #Podemos #Política (translated)

Pablo Iglesias stated that Compromís, Podemos, Izquierda Unida, and ERC, among other parties, had agreed to run together in the elections in the Valencian Community. He noted that the coalition would not be called Frente Amplio and contrasted the agreement with the situation in Catalonia, where ERC competed with that formation while Podemos supported it and, as he wrote, would integrate into its lists. Iglesias said that the coalitions in the Canary Islands and the Valencian Community were also not called Frente Amplio or Sumar, as was the case, according to him, in the Balearic Islands and Aragón. He asserted that similar agreements could be reached in other territories and that plurinationality and the left complicated these alliances. He also criticized the position of those who, as he wrote, conditioned agreements in other territories on Podemos integrating into a coalition in Madrid. He stated that an agreement in all territories except Madrid would not imply an electoral penalty and that there the left-wing electorate could choose between the candidacies of Delgado and Colau or those of Montero and Rufián. Iglesias argued that Podemos and MM-FA could have run together in Madrid through primaries, but claimed that someone did not want that option. He added that agreements without primaries could be reasonable in places where the electoral system penalized division, although they were not essential in Madrid. Finally, he urged those who, in his opinion, impeded agreements like those in the Canary Islands and the Valencian Community to rectify and negotiate with Podemos in Andalusia, Galicia, Asturias, Murcia, the Basque Country, Castile, and La Rioja. https://t.co/liVgAhAk6Q #PaísValencià #Coalición #Izquierda (translated)

Military Things stated that, 50 years ago, Western Sahara was on the front line and Ceuta and Melilla were on the horizon, while now these cities were on the front line and the Canary Islands appeared on the horizon. He attributed this change to the fact that, as he wrote, part of the international community had accepted Moroccan colonization. The author described the situation as a dynastic project and said that the imminent Hassan III would have the mission of conquering "African Spain." He suggested that a change must occur in Morocco or return Western Sahara to the front line, and proposed to move the conflict there. Otherwise, he warned, Spain would be headed for a clash in its own territory. #SaharaOccidental #Ceuta #Melilla (translated)

In the elections of November 29, only in the Canary Islands has an agreement been reached between Podemos and the Broad Front, while Madrid presents itself as the main obstacle to achieving a state pact, despite negotiation attempts and various alliances in other autonomous communities. #Elecciones29N #FrenteAmplio #Podemos (translated)
