Fernando Morales and Free Verifications

 Fernando Morales and Free Verifications

DIEGO MARTIN VELÁZQUEZ CABALLERO




Although he has minimal possibilities to reach the governorship of Puebla (18%) and his family works with Morena, the truth is that Fer Morales has started with good steps due to some ideas that may be important in the policy agenda local public.


The idea of making ecological verifications of motorized transport free of charge has been visible and that fines are only charged for those who evade the process or do not have the mechanical regularization to pass this requirement.


Well observed, the idea is important in one of the states with the largest vehicle fleet in the metropolitan area surrounding Mexico City and where motorists have been criminalized since the arrival of morenovallismo.


One of the most ineffective agencies in Puebla is the Secretary of the Environment, Sustainable Development and Territorial Planning.


This agency is full of corruption and most of its staff is inefficient.


The situation of rivers, air, mountains, forests and, in general, the flora and fauna; It's terrible.


Moreno Valle distinguished himself by promoting neo-extractivism in a totalitarian way, but the Morena governments did nothing to change things.


The environment continues to be the picnic and camping for the golden bureaucracy.


Motorists will hardly vote for Alejandro Armenta and Morena, the alternation after morenovallismo has used the negative development of mobility policies, corruption and coercion towards car owners.


The disaster of poor air quality is proof that the environmental contingency does not concern the responsible officials, the state government did not change the mistreatment of drivers at all: photo fines, constant checkpoints, aggression by the police, disruption of vehicular traffic, etc


On the issue of ecological verifications, the permanent changes in verification technology as well as the manipulated concessions regarding them, suggest that the least important thing in Puebla is the environment and pollution.


Puebla is one of the most opaque states since Morenovallismo.


The environmental situation has been so manipulated that the pollution of the public administration in this regard is worse than global warming.


Thousands of motorists from Puebla come to park in Mexico City, Veracruz, Oaxaca, Guerrero, Morelos and Tlaxcala to avoid the corruption plot regarding vehicle verification.


The verification centers never finished functioning properly and the state administration does not synchronize the proportion between the verification centers, stages and vehicle population.


Fernando Morales makes simple, but intelligent and practical proposals regarding the subject. Vehicle verification must change in the entity and the state administration can do many things about it.


At another time, the mayor of Puebla Luis Paredes built a system of fines so that corruption in the traffic police decreased, the former governor of Aguascalientes Felipe González promoted the use of gas engines to replace polluting mechanisms and finance the improvement of the vehicle fleet.


There are good ideas, but they must be implemented.

Samuel García and the dinosaurs of succession

 Samuel García and the dinosaurs of succession

Diego Martín Velázquez Caballero



Although it is important to note that the Rule of Law was not complied with in Nuevo León due to the contradictions between the Local Congress and the head of the Executive Branch Samuel García, more significant for the country's citizens is the fact that the PRIANRD monopolizes political participation and that Xochitl Gálvez does not have a trigger to jump, a little, in the polls.

The mission of the red circle and the traditional political forces that make up the Broad Front for Mexico dedicated themselves, heart and soul, to sabotaging the probable presidential candidacy of the young governor of Nuevo León; and they got it. The Frente Amplio understood that, if it did not destroy Samuel García, there was a good chance that Senator Gálvez would drop to third place in the electoral polls in a short time. And the campaign against the Citizen Movement was successful.

Does the defeat of Samuel García have a nuclear effect towards Morena? It does not seem so in the immediate interpretation; In fact, recent demographic samples continue to show a wide advantage for Claudia Sheinbaum over the FAM. The fall of Samuel García constitutes a pyrrhic triumph for the PRIANRD because it consolidates the anti-AMLO sympathizer sector; Although López Obrador has nothing to do with the presidential candidate Fosfo Fosfo and Movimiento Ciudadano, on the contrary, López Obrador welcomed the participatory inclusion of a new trend in the presidential competition. However, the authoritarian and non-plural attitude of the political bloc led by Claudio

It is a paradox that the polarization so exhibited by the PRIANRD as López Obrador's daily weapon, is now constituted as the preferred playing field for the Frente Amplio. It has been accused that polarization puts the country on the course of a civil war, or class struggle as the right and left like to say, but it is an electoral approach that can serve different purposes, for example, boosting candidates who are lagging behind.

It is clear that the high polarization is from the PRIANRD, since the beginning of the six-year term it is manifested in the aporophobia, classism and anti-communism of the traditional political forces; That is, after the fall of Samuel García, it will be used as a preferred strategy to oppose Morenoism and develop convincing arguments against the Fourth Transformation.

Polarization is the preferred tool of the right, and after the victory of Javier Milei in Argentina, it is highly probable that Xochitl Gálvez, Eduardo Verástegui and other opponents - for example, the red circle - will develop desperate strategies to violate and polarize the electorate. so that they bring down highly positioned candidates. Nuevo León may seem like a taco in front of dinner, but it counts.
