Coalición Canaria remains indignant because the PSOE published a "shameful" video. How sensitive. How fragile. What selective memory for a party that should review its own album of stumbles before preaching.Because if we're talking about limits, CC has crossed several. And some of them in a big way.
The pact with Vox in Teguise: when moderation was left at home
CC repeats often that they are a "moderate" and centrist party. Until the numbers had to be added up in Teguise.
At that moment, councilman Ginés González, who then belonged to Vox, was integrated into the governing group and appointed deputy mayor, with responsibilities such as Local Police and Civil Protection.
He then left Vox, yes. But the agreement was reached when he was part of the partyFor CC, that didn't cross any lines. A video, however, that's the end of the world.
The institutional circus: when a plenary session turned into a show
There was a plenary session — widely reported in the local press — where a CC representative completely lost his temper: shouting, aggressive gestures, expulsions, tension, a lamentable spectacle. Instead of a democratic body, it looked like an improvised stage.
But there CC did not see "embarrassment," nor "limits," nor "anti-politics." Ethical elasticity depends on the color of the jersey.
The Jesús Machín case: the hotel for alleged abusers
This was the episode that turned Canarias upside down and that even today no one in CC explains without blushing
The mayor of Tinajo, Jesús Machín, acknowledged in an extraordinary plenary session that the City Council had paid for hotel nights for alleged aggressors in cases of gender-based violence to prevent their arrest.
His words: "The Local Police call me and tell me: either this man is found a place or he has to be arrested... I tell them: no, as we've done other times, go to the hotel."A political and social blunder that generated general indignation. But CC didn't talk about limits there
Adasat Goya and medical data: the line no one should cross
The director of the SCS, Adasat Goya, used confidential medical information of an opposition deputy in parliament to attack him publicly.
Data protected by law. Exposed to score political points.
The CC's reaction was lukewarm. Very lukewarm. Limits, they say…
Let's review what crossing boundaries is not for CC:
- Making a deal with a councilor who was from Vox.
- Turning a council meeting into a disgraceful spectacle.
- Using a municipal hotel to house alleged aggressors.
- Using medical data to discredit a deputy.
But an ironic video from the PSOE does destroy democracy. Of course.
Conclusion: CC is not outraged… she is hurtCC doesn't protest out of ethics. They protest because this time it was their turn to receive.If CC wants to talk about limits, they should start by reviewing their own. And when they're done — if they ever are — we'll continue with the videos.
