The Constitutional Court has decided not to admit for processing the appeals of Drago for the candidates of Unidad del Pueblo Canario to be prohibited from running in the elections under the UPC acronym, understanding that they were usurping them from the historic nationalist force of the eighties.
As reported by the party led by Alberto Rodríguez, the Constitutional Court has resolved not to process their appeals as it does not find that their complaint against Unidad del Pueblo Canario contains elements of "special constitutional significance".
Despite this ruling, Drago reiterates its accusation against Podemos, Sumar, Izquierda Unida of Nueva Canarias for having "illegitimately appropriated" the UPC acronym for their electoral alliance.
Drago maintains that UPC is "a national brand of the Canary Islands that has been historically relevant for its struggles and left-wing movements" and that it has been "usurped" despite "the opposition of the people who have led these same movements".
The party of Alberto Rodríguez, which in 2023 was part of a coalition of political forces united around Sumar, understands that the Constitutional Court has not wanted to delve into the merits of its appeals "because another party with the same acronym or electoral designation was not running in these specific elections".
In its opinion, this is "something that shows they have not taken into account that there will be people who vote for these acronyms thinking they are the original historic Canary Islands left-wing movement".
