In an interview with LGNS Radio, Márquez emphasized his group's stance, which seeks prior and substantial dialogue on key issues before they are brought to debate. This statement comes amidst growing political tension in the municipality, where the use of the surplus has been a recurring point of friction between the Government and the opposition.
The socialists had already communicated in writing to the municipal Government that they wanted to resume dialogue and address substantive issues beforehand, before bringing them to debate.
The socialist spokesperson criticized the local Executive, formed by PP and ULEG, for continuing to push measures without prior political work with opposition groups. This situation has led to a stalemate in the management of the surplus, a topic that has generated controversy in the Leganés City Council for months.
As an example of this lack of consensus, Márquez cited the case of the sidewalks in Leganés Norte. He argued that such actions should not be approached in isolation but as part of a comprehensive negotiation linked to municipal budgets. The integral improvement of Leganés Norte is a long-standing project that has been tied to the use of remnants and budget amendments.
The PSOE's position aligns with previous messages, where they had already proposed a "truce" to the local Executive to unblock investments, provided that "democratic normality" was restored and a real negotiation space was created. The current message reiterates this condition: without prior dialogue, there will be no blank checks for the Government's proposals.
