If we talk about advice... President.

Recently I was reading an interview, to call it something, not because of the questions, but because of the answers from the illustrious, the magnanimous, the Charlemagne of the island, Oswaldo El Grande, president of the Cabildo de Lanzarote, where he criticized left and right the previous president of the island council, but hey, let her defend herself, she knows how to do it too. But his "illustrious" lordship also took the trouble to launch the umpteenth attack on a person who does nothing but constructive opposition in the Cabildo Insular de Lanzarote, I'm referring to my mayor and president of Unidos Por Yaiza, Óscar Noda. And that's enough.

The attacks have increased since Óscar and UPY led the creation of a party or federation of parties called Juntos por Lanzarote, to export the management model of Yaiza to the island level, and to defend Lanzarote as it deserves, because the Island deserves much more than what we have and above all deserves solutions to island problems that none of the major parties have been able to solve in this long time, and I'm referring to nothing less than water, housing, transport, or territorial protection. So many attacks give me the feeling that it is fear disguised as bravery.

But from his answers to that interview, I found it amusing that he argued that Óscar was poorly advised, curious that he says it, he who has a convicted person as his main advisor and who was the first person he appointed upon taking office. What must his lifelong colleagues from Coalición Canaria be thinking?

But even more amusing to me is that argument, because it is evident that he is the one who is poorly advised, since no one forgets the whim of raising his salary, and to rectify, asking the people to vote for the amount of his emoluments, but yes, in four options clearly superior to that of his predecessor in office... the advice he received was crazy.

Amusing and well-advised was the press conference he starred in in August 2023 with the announcement of 90 million to fix the integral water cycle and avoid cuts, and the reality three years later is more water cuts, more network losses, and a rescued water service with total uncertainty. Legal curves are coming.

His advice is so, so good that he has had to disguise his term in office with trips, parties, events, and more events, we've only had that, party and more party, so tell me one work, one project, one initiative with his own stamp... nothing at all.

Everything has been managing the routine, everything has been increasingly tighter tie knots and the chest inflated we don't know if from the 87,000 euros we pay him, but increasingly inflated. Unpaved island roads, water not reaching the towns of Lanzarote, public transport continues to be very deficient and housing is a real disaster. It's a shame that Pope Leo XIV did not schedule a visit to Lanzarote because indirectly he would have lent us a hand in improving our road infrastructure. Who would have seen them fixing the roads, even the pothole of Los Hervideros would have lost its appearance of an enormous and natural baptismal font.
