An important part of politics consists of simply virtual episodes that have no more relevance for citizens than providing them with a few seconds of attention in the media, a few minutes of conversation depending on the noise caused and some meme on social networks. In this sense, it would be difficult to differentiate this genre from any other entertainment program on television. And yet, these episodes are widespread because the media does not usually differentiate them, typographically, from socially relevant events. An example is this same article. Thus, the protagonist usually appears as satisfied as if he were advertising a vaccine against cancer. For example, the motion of censure against the Government that Ciudadanos has just put forward through its spokesperson, Edmundo Bal . The formula used is picturesque, but effective in showing opposition to the Government, an opposition that goes so far as to ask for its revocation.
What this man has said is that “ Citizens would support a motion of censure presented by the Popular Party .” Bal, as a lawyer for the State that he is, and supposedly knowledgeable about Spanish laws, knows that the legal Australia Phone Number procedure to present a motion of censure requires a minimum number of deputies to present it and that this minimum is equivalent to 10% of the total those that make up the hemicycle. Also, due to his time at university, and his necessary prior primary education, Mr. Bal has the minimum notions of arithmetic to know that that 10% is equivalent to having 35 deputies. And finally, as spokesman for his group, he knows that, in his last part of the retreat, his team did not exceed 9 deputies. Therefore, with such a wealth of knowledge, Mr. Edmundo has refrained from filling out a paper and presenting it in the registry of the Congress of Deputies to propose Inés Arrimadas , for example, as a candidate for the Presidency of the Government to replace Pedro Sánchez.
Instead, Edmundo Bal , on behalf of Ciudadanos, has presented a virtual vote of censure, atypical, but a vote of censure, after all. His atypicality is not only motivated by the procedure, something that I have already stated that political virtuality is not so unusual. The thing is that, in addition, he has presented as an alternative a person not from his political group, but from the Popular Party. Although he has had the delicacy of not proposing a specific candidate for the PP to do so, either in the person of Pablo Casado or in the "most relevant political personality" as Aznar says . That is, Isabel Diaz Ayuso . This form of vote of no confidence joins other commonly used ones such as the "Go away Mr. González" that is usually used in each plenary session of the courts without more than changing the last name of the person being censored.
