The opposition’s reproach has been unanimous in the Parliament: there is no group, with the exception of ERC, that does not consider that the latest changes it has made Pere Aragones in the Government respond to the fact that the “electoral mode” has been launched, despite the fact that it has taken pains to make it clear that The elections will not be until 2025. The decibels have increased to the point of accusing the president of trying to turn the Executiu into his “electoral committee”. Especially, they have delved, to place Sergi Sabria as Vice-Minister of Strategy and Communication and for elevating Vice President to Laura Vilagra instead of a counselor in charge of important matters in management.

He is in electoral mode when he appoints his deputy as vice-minister. boss Campaign“, he blurted out, in addition to calling the movements of pieces in the executive a “trap.”
“Balances” with Junqueras
The head of the opposition has not stopped here, but in addition to pointing out that a Government with three remodelings in three years cannot be considered “stable”, he has raised the “suspicion” that the changes also respond to “balances” in ERC between him and Oriol Junqueras. “Catalonia needs someone who thinks about Catalonia and not about the party,” he declared, in addition to remembering that he continues to govern with a minority of 33 deputies and with open crises such as drought or education.
The president of the Junts parliamentary group has expressed himself in a similar way, Albert Batetwhich has also considered that the changes simply respond “to party balances” and to their electoral interests. “You have decided who will be your campaign manager and who will go number two on your list; “This does not strengthen the institutions,” said Batet, who criticized the president for not appointing a vice-councilor “for the drought or to deal with the poor results of the PISA reports.”
