We have a President in the Cabildo of Lanzarote who seems to have gone mute. In the plenary sessions he seems more like a mere moderator than someone who presides over the main institution of the island. He doesn't speak, he just passes the floor to the councilors, and when he takes it, it is simply to change the point on the agenda, close the previous section or point, and help the secretary to certify the vote count.
The only way we have in the plenary to know what he thinks about current issues of the Cabildo is by directly requesting an interpellation or appearance. This is how the President himself defined and acknowledged it in the last plenary session: he will only do it out of obligation. These two modalities are the only ways we have from the opposition groups for him to speak out obligatorily on the issues that concern the reality of Lanzarote. He doesn't blush recognizing that he is not willing to confront ideas in the highest body of debate.
Don't think that when he is forced to speak, he delves too deeply into the issues either. He doesn't even study in depth to be able to respond with arguments and solvency... No. Unfortunately, he usually uses the resource of blurting out the first thing that comes to his head, and on many occasions, we are embarrassed by the lack of rigor and lightness with which he resolves matters, giving rise to his well-known occurrences, which at this rate, will soon be "Oswaldadas".
There are already many examples in this period of time: the frustrated change of name of the Cabildo of Lanzarote, promised with the same speed with which it was rejected because the President was unaware of the lack of powers, giving Canal Gestión the tenders of the Water Consortium without any report to support it, scandalously raising his salary more than the President of the Government of Spain himself, or not being able to defend a worthy regional budget for Lanzarote, with his party governing the Canary Islands.
In short, very given to spectacle and pompous promises, but as soon as you scratch the surface, you find emptiness.
Oswaldo should be a little more cautious and try to tread firmly. The bill was already passed to him in Teguise. Since CC found opposition, it lost four councilors, the majority, and remained the second force.
If he is not careful, even his government partner, who until now has been limited to hanging medals of the merits of the previous government, will end up overtaking him due to his lack of diligence.
The day-to-day of the Cabildo requires you to be prepared, studied, to know perfectly what you are talking about at every moment and what island project you want to move towards. At this rate, no matter how many beautiful photos they take of him, there will be no frame or party that can stand it.
