Believer
On 19 June, while he was in the constitutive session of the new Parliament of Navarre, on the front sidewalk, there were about 25-30 men behind a banner. They weren't relatives of the prisoners, they weren't workers of a company in crisis, they weren't even Euskaltzales worried about the future government they could come from. The banner was simply: “We want the canal” Around them, the peasants of the Ribera, angry, because the canal of Navarra has not yet reached its lands.
It was a concentration called by the UAGN trade union. However, the UAGN is well aware that the waters of the lucky pit will sooner or later reach the land of these farmers. For the other, the Uxue Barkos Government has worked. The project that UPN interrupted because of its excessive cost has been restarted and, after a cheaper technical solution, the department of Counsellor Manu Ayerdi has made it viable in this legislature. Therefore, the people gathered on the Paseo de Sarasate had the right to stay in the street. Don't get angry.
But those farmers did not doubt: Barkos has stopped the Canal de Navarra during these four years. For the recognition of the demands of Bildu and Podemos. Because it hates the Ribera. Because it undermines the economic viability of Navarre. You know, the easier it is in the Basque Country. For his part, UPN and PSN, and the only thing he has done is to ask for water since the first day of the presidency of Barkos.
After a few years, when these four years are being investigated in Navarre, a whole chapter will have to be devoted to manipulating reality. How easy it is that opposition parties have lied. How has all the media power been used to create a story, in various ways, that had nothing to do with what was actually happening. And how stupid, how rude, you have responded, from the point of view of communication, to this bombing!
An erdaldun friend is preparing competitions for a fixed position in the Foral Administration. Over 100 jobs. A dozen in Basque. In the call it is written, under conditions, there is no way to speculate about it. But the other time he stood out. I had an affair with a acquaintance. Apparently, it was on because it was asking for Basque for all jobs. On 26 May, when many Navarros went to vote, they were convinced that it was impossible to enter the Navarre administration without knowing Basque. If at least it had been true.
