Page announces the immediate reform of the Statute of Autonomy to change the electoral law and increase deputies in C-LM

MANZANARES (CIUDAD REAL), 31 May. (EUROPE PRESS) -

The president-elect of Castilla-La Mancha, Emiliano García-Page, has announced that one of his first measures, since he will revalidate the Government of the Autonomous Community, will be to start the process of modifying the Statute of Autonomy that allows the electoral law to be changed to increase the parliamentary representativeness of the region.

During his speech at the institutional act for the Day of Castilla-La Mancha from Manzanares, he said that these last elections "leave obvious lessons", such as that the electoral system in the region is "deficit".

Conceived under the Government of María Dolores de Cospedal, it is a system "literally badly thought or badly thought". "But the reality is that it is quite incredible that increasing the percentage of votes and votes almost prevents majority rule," she lamented.

An "absurd" system before which he wanted to "make it clear that one of the priorities immediately" will be to undertake these regulatory reforms to "remove the democratic cap." "There is no term to extend a decision that should have been made a long time ago," he said.

With the perspective of the 40 years that have elapsed, he has valued the "success" of Castilla-La Mancha, something that José Bono and José María Barreda, former presidents present in the auditorium, can attest to.

As you can attest that "never in history have people done so well" as in the last four decades, thanks to the Spanish Constitution and the Statute of Autonomy.

The leader of the regional Executive, who has had words of gratitude for all those recognized for their work as Castilian-Manchegos, has praised their "vital trajectory in favor of society, in an unappealable way."

"Your career is worth imitating. You can be extraordinary in the world of arts, science, culture, but if there is no commitment to the region, you can have the Nobel, but not the distinction of this autonomous community ", has said.

Likewise, he considers that all the winners represent "certainty" in a world where "guidance" is lacking; at the same time that they collect a spirit that has always animated a region that "was born new, like so many others" 40 years ago.

All of them are examples of "optimism" as optimism has been the region under its Statute of Autonomy.

"Despite all the problems, the world has hope, but you have to look for it, you have to catch it," the Castilian-Manchego president has warned.
