Political transversality is in fashion. In these re-elections, it is the ideological epicenter of most of the major political parties, a substrate to the disastrous.
To be situated on the transversal axis is to hide who you are, it is to sow doubt, it is to act behind your values. To detach yourself from your ideological being as a political party, to anchor yourself in a message that captures the social majority, is bread for today and hunger for tomorrow. Political parties as tools of social construction are plural because of their identity, because of their different ways of thinking about politics, the economy, justice, culture.
To be transversal saying that ideologies do not exist in this globalized context, is a discourse of plagiarism. It is false that the different ideologies have ceased to exist and it is also false that there is a political transversality that can operate outside of them and, above all, of objective reality. Transversal policies are to politics as the story of the tooth fairy is to children.
The different ideological theorems on how to address the necessary changes in search of greater well-being, exist and will exist. Another thing is the political campaign, the defamatory message that only seeks the largest number of votes possible.
In the Canary Islands we are not for games, we are not for tricks of parties commanded from Madrid. In the Canary Islands we are for our people to take pencil and paper and take their proposals, complaints and claims to the home of our Senator, our Deputy. We are not waiting any longer for Madrid to allow us to have a Canary Islands with more employability, with less unemployment, with a more public and agile health, or with an education at the top of Europe.
The Canary Islands needs metapolitics, people commanded from here, people who have come from cultural associations, neighborhood associations, sports clubs, people who know what this land needs, what we Canarians need.
The Canary Islands does not need political transversality, empty speeches, it needs real policies, it needs nationalism.
