Mame Fernández y Jerónimo Robayna

Mame Fernández and Jerónimo Robayna have signed this Thursday morning before a notary the founding act and the statutes to create a new political party in Lanzarote. Its creation has been registered at the island level, although initially the objective is to take the first step in the municipality of Tías, without ruling out the possibility of achieving electoral alliances "with local and nationalist parties".

"We all fit, with opinions from right to left to then reach consensus and end up in common sense, respecting all people equally," Fernández added in statements to La Voz. The former deputy mayor of Tías in the last legislature explains that the objective of both is to "enlarge the project" after the summer through active participation "to make the best list of people involved in society and in each of the seven towns of the municipality."

Mame Fernández, who spent nearly ten years in active politics, went through the Canarian Coalition, Nueva Canarias and Lanzarote Avanza. Now he returns after a break of two years, since he decided not to run in the last municipal elections held in 2023 for health reasons. Meanwhile, Jerónimo Robayna began in politics with the Partido de Independientes de Lanzarote and then founded and led the San Borondón project that he abandoned in 2018 and resumed in 2021 for the past elections.

We will still have to wait to know the name with which this newly released political formation wants to compete in the 2027 elections, since it is waiting for the Ministry of the Interior to confirm that there is no other party with the same name either in the Canary Islands or in the rest of the country.

The objective of this union between the former lieutenant of Tías and the former president of San Borondón Jerónimo Robayna is to "put the house in order", referring to the Tías City Council and "activate all public workers to satisfy the 23,033 inhabitants of the municipality".

Among the proposals for the consistory, Mame Fernández defends "less pitch and paving stone and more vegetation, plants and trees".
