Palma, Jul 2 (EFE).- The leader of the Balearic PP, Marga Prohens, will deliver her speech in Parliament this Monday on the occasion of the investiture debate for the presidency of the Government and will be president of the autonomous community next Thursday.
Prohens, the only candidate presented by the political parties with representation in the Chamber, will become the first political authority in the Balearic Islands on Thursday thanks to the support of its 26 deputies (the simple majority is 30) and the abstention of the 8 deputies from Vox.
After her speech in plenary this Monday, the parliamentary groups will respond to the candidate’s speech on Tuesday, 24 hours after her speech.
After the agreement closed by PP and Vox, the formation of Santiago Abascal will vote against Prohens in the first vote, on Tuesday, and will abstain in the second, which will take place on Thursday.
The popular candidate will thus achieve the simple majority that will allow her to be president and govern the autonomous community without any Vox minister in her cabinet, a promise that she herself expressed during the electoral campaign.
Prohens is the first woman from the PP to hold this public office, which was once held by Gabriel Cañellas, Cristòfol Soler, Jaume Matas and José Ramón Bauzá.
The new president is 41 years old, is from Campos (Mallorca) and has a degree in Translation and Interpreting from the Pompeu Fabra University in Barcelona.
She has been a deputy for the PP in Congress and in the Balearic Parliament and has managed to win for her party, in her first attempt, regional elections and access to the presidency of the Balearic Islands after eight consecutive years of government of the PSOE, Podemos and MÉS.
The PP won the last 28M elections in the Balearic Islands and has wrested the Government, the island councils and the municipalities of Palma and Ibiza, among other institutions, from the left led by the PSOE. EFE
