Junts presents its own proposal for a royal decree on housing before the votes in Congress

Junts makes a last-minute move and is preparing to deliver this morning to the Government, before the votes scheduled in Congress, a proposal for a royal decree "own and already prepared" so that it can serve as a "starting point" in the event that, indeed, the PSOE is willing to "move towards a real, solvent solution capable of gathering broad parliamentary support."

The party led by Carles Puigdemont tries to demonstrate in this way that his announced "no" to the two Government decrees does not represent a refusal to address the housing problem. The objective is to distance themselves from the intention, which they believe they see in the Executive, of subjecting them to a campaign of alignment with the extreme right.

In their text, the Catalan independentists emphasize their two fundamental demands, the same ones that they consider the Government's decrees do not satisfy, that is: act forcefully against vulture funds and protect all families.

The "precondition" that Junts proposes is, as they announced last night, the withdrawal of the two decrees approved by the Council of Ministers and that this morning will be put to a vote in Congress in order to, they insist, "avoid their negative and irreversible effects on the housing market."

Both government decrees will decline precisely because of the vote against Junts, added to those of PP, Vox and UPN. In total there will be 179 votes against the first decree, the longest, the one that the Government had hopes of moving forward.

The second of the decrees, sponsored by Sumar, the minority party in the Executive, has never had a chance of succeeding. In this case, the votes against PP, Vox and UPN are also joined by those of Junts, PNV and Canarian Coalition.
