UP defends promoting another reform of the TC to throw out the "entrenched magistrates": "They are ultra judges"

The confederal group complies but will argue against the suspension decreed yesterday and also wants to take the case to Europe

MADRID, 20 Dic. (EUROPA PRESS) -

United We Can has defended promoting a new bill to reform the Constitutional Court with the aim of kicking out the "entrenched magistrates" in the body, who have behaved like "ultra" judges.

In this line, they will also present allegations before the Constitutional Court itself against the suspension decreed yesterday of the reform that unblocked its renewal, without completing the parliamentary process in the Senate.

This was stated on Tuesday by the president of the parliamentary group in Congress, Jaume Asens, and the first secretary of the Congress Bureau and leader of En Comú Podem, Gerardo Pisarello, who has advanced that they will adopt all the legal resources available to them. scope against this decision.

In this way, they are already positioned in compliance with the ruling of the Constitutional Court and take legal and parliamentary actions to reverse the situation.

In statements to TVE, collected by Europa Press, Asens explained that in addition to exhausting the internal means allowed by the Spanish legal system, his idea is to bring the paralysis of the parliamentary processing of these amendments included in the bill of changes in the Criminal Code to Europe, specifically to the Court of Justice of the European Union.

The representative of the confederal space has indicated that his group is committed to presenting a bill to reform the organic law that governs the Constitutional Court to replace these magistrates who have acted against the will of the legislature elected at the polls. "You have to pick up the broken thread again," he defended.

And it is that the suspension decreed without having approved this legislative initiative in the Cortes Generales is a "very serious fact" and a "blow to democracy", consummated by the "ultra" judges with expired mandate and "posts by the PP", and that refuse to renew the organism.

He has also stressed that they are looking at the options of whether to go directly to the European judicial authorities, given that it has been shown that in Spain the "arbitrator is bought", in reference to the TC. And it is that he believes that yesterday's decision already supposes the "emptying" of the amparo appeal itself with a suspension adopted prior to the completion of the approval of the reform by the Cortes Generales.

For his part, Pisarello has explained in statements in Congress that the necessary reforms must be proposed for this renewal of the judicial bodies to take place, given that there is a broad parliamentary majority of 184 votes, precisely those who supported the reform to unblock the relief of magistrates in the TC.

And it is that the deputy of United We Can has appealed to the need to "enforce the parliamentary majority" that has been "subdued in an unacceptable way" by a TC with an expired mandate.

Finally, he has defended the need to ensure that the TC "is not instrumentalized by a minority that is using it to degrade the institution and run over democracy."
