Osakidetza nuts, approach and four
Lehendakari acknowledged in his Christmas television message that there were problems and difficulties in Osakidetza and that on 1 February, at the opening of the Murueta health centre, there were shortcomings in primary care. Last year, companies linked to some people in the PNV were commissioned to “reorganize” and “innovate” primary care, LKS and Tei.
In the face of criticism and strikes in recent years, the Department of Health has spent millions of euros annually on communication campaigns. Many of them have been hired through agencies and media linked to people from the PNV, such as Mediasal and News Group.
Faced with institutional propaganda hidden in EITB information, the latest Deustobarometer survey, published in December 2022, points to health concerns and Osakidetza's average score has dropped to 5. In addition, according to OSEKI, initiative for the right to health at the University of the Basque Country/Euskal Herriko Unibertsitatea, regarding the resources allocated to health by the Department of Health of the Basque Government, the majority of the population considers that in recent years they have decreased.
The Madrid Coordinator says that the experiment is not new, citing Osakidetza: "In the CAPV there is no political control of hiring"
As an article by OSEKI states, the neoliberal trend materialized in the Osasuna Zainduz Plan in the early 1990s. The Osasuna Zainduz Plan was created by Iñaki Azkuna, Health Advisor (1991-1999) and Rafa Bengoa, Director of Health Planning and Management (1991-1995). Years later, health centers were opened in Bilbao, as mayor of the city of Azkuna and as health advisor of the Basque Government Bengoa (2009-2012). Rafael Bengoa is now director of a consultant and the Hospital 12 de Octubre de Madrid is one of his clients.
They now want to implement the procurement model defended by the Osasuna Zainduz Plan in the Health System of the Community of Madrid. In the face of this, the coordinator against the privatization of health in Madrid has criticized that it means “transferring public money to private enterprise as soon as possible”, that is, “eliminating the mechanisms that public law establishes to ensure the transparent and controlled use of the public treasury”.
The Madrid coordinator says that the experiment is not new, citing Osakidetza: “In the case of the Autonomous Community of the Basque Country there is no political control over procurement, only the Basque Court of Public Accounts, which is a technical body and the budget law only sets the limit of expenditure”. ELA believes that Isabel Díaz Ayuso follows the rhythm of the jewel of the Basque oasis.

I received your e-mail in personal mail on the strike portals. At first, like many others, I thought it was to let you know what options we have in the face of the strike. But no, the e-mail received was a political and communicative movement against the strike.

This weekend I've been thinking about the word 'aesthetic' in relation to a phrase said by a friend: “This work is aesthetic.” I have studied the etymology of the word aesthetic, it seems that its meaning was originally perceived through the senses, and it was later associated... [+]

The other day in Bilbao, I met a friend at the Bira bar. We were very happy at the Tar and I said: “Of course, since you’re Guipúzcoa, hahahaha.” And he insisted that he was not Guipuzcoan. Without me understanding it, I kept saying, “Ah! Is it not? You were born in New... [+]
Zalantza asko izan ditut, meloia ireki ala ez. Ausartuko naiz, zer demontre! Aspaldian buruan dudan gogoeta jarri nahi dut mahai gainean: ez da justua erditu den emakumearen eta beste gurasoaren baimen-iraupena bera izatea. Hobeto esanda, baimen-denbora bera izanda ere, ez... [+]
We are in the midst of a world imperialist offensive led by the Western bourgeoisie. The form that the imperialist offensive has taken is that of war, with all its variants: economic war, cognitive and cultural war, lawfarr; and, of course, military war. Western imperialism has... [+]
I just saw a series from another sad detective. All the plots take place on a remote island in Scotland. You know how these fictions work: many dead, ordinary people but not so many, and the dark green landscape. This time it reminded me of a trip I made to the Scottish... [+]

And for another year, the unions have organized prefabricated strikes for us. And we, individually, will decide whether or not to join the strike, without the need for any assembly at the school.

Life surrounds everything, it is limited and fragile. To live good lives, it seems to me that the body knows what to do, while the mind, although it knows (when it is well informed), often sees the body deliberately silence. In this silence the mind opens itself to relations... [+]
