EH Bildu, first force in Álava

40 years later, Álava was a Spanish feud. What has happened since for a change of this size, the undeniable victory of EH Bidu in the last elections?

This singular fact cannot be understood from an evolutionary process through which Spanish consciousness becomes Basque consciousness.

We postulate that the change of this size can only be understood from the birth of a singular fact, where the first occurs (Alava, Spain) and the future (Araba, Euskal Herria). That is, something unexpected, which leaves the old (Spanish identity) and creates a new one, based on the Basque language and culture.

Let's look at what the founding fact of this new consciousness is.

Let us not forget that 40 years later it was impossible to Euskaldunizar in Álava. The PSOE and the PNV imposed on us models A and B, saying that education in Basque was unfeasible in our country.

The long struggle of ikastola Tokieder laid the foundations of our youth and the Euskaldunization of our territory.

Most Spanish analysts have not been able to see the real reasons for the undeniable victory of EH Bildu in Álava

Let us remember that this process was materialized thanks to the interpellation, the call to our conscience of ENAM, the current founder of the freedom struggles of this country, in the face of the passivity shown by the PNV.

This singular fact has marked and marked, directly or indirectly, all our youth, whether Basque or not, sensitive to the call of our people.

Let us remember that every event is always materialized in a singular subject (ENAM, Tokieder, in this case), capable of claiming a new one, with a great dissemination capacity and unpredictable and unpredictable effects, invisible to those who are refractory. In this sense, most Spanish analysts have not been able to see the real reasons for the undeniable victory of EH Bildu in Álava. The vast majority (including Mr Ortuzar) said that this growth came from the former Podemos voters. Let us remember that Podemos was voted on massively, supposedly in Madrid, defending the national rights of our people and our prisoners. It has been observed that this has not been the case, that they have gradually disappeared.

However, it must be acknowledged that a young journalist, Tertulian from a well-known Spanish chain, said that most young Alaveses voted for EH Bildu because they were speaking to them in Basque. He said, in his own way, the Basque identity (Basque and culture), whose process we have already mentioned, was at the base of the victory of EH Bildu in Álava.

We are convinced that EH Bildu is aware of this process and will ratify the path followed so far.
