The local secretary of Nueva Canarias-Bloque Canarista (NC-bc) in Teguise, Belén Machín, has warned of the "worrying instability" of the current municipal government group made up of Coalición Canaria (CC), Partido Popular (PP) and the former councilor of VOX, **after the recent events experienced in the City Council**, which "have evidenced the fragility of the pact and a way of doing politics far removed from the real needs of the municipality".
Machín points out that the departure and subsequent return, in just a few days, of a PP councilor from the governing group "placed the governing group in the minority and on the verge of an institutional crisis, highlighting the lack of cohesion and leadership of the current mayor". "A single move was enough for the entire pact structure to falter, which shows that the government is sustained by overly fragile balances," they emphasize
Belén Machín points out "the terrible political management of this episode, marked by the absence of public explanations, the lack of transparency, and the non-existence of a clear assumption of responsibilities before the citizenry". "The crisis was resolved with the same speed with which it occurred, as if it were an internal game that has nothing to do with the daily problems of Teguise," she points out
From NC-bc they recall that, while these internal disputes are occurring, the neighbors continue waiting for answers on key issues such as access to housing, the improvement of public services, the maintenance of towns, support for the social and economic fabric, or the protection of heritage. "When the priority is to retain power, the municipality takes a backseat and citizen trust suffers," they state.
NC-bc defends that "governing is not clinging to a position, but assuming the responsibility of serving the general interest with seriousness, coherence, and a long-term political project". In this regard, they emphasize that Teguise "needs stability, commitment, and people-centered management".
“Teguise is not an armchair; it is a living municipality, with history and with real problems that require solutions and institutional respect,” concludes Belén Machín.
