BarcelonaJosep Costa, who was the second most voted candidate by members after Lluís Llach, has been left out of the ANC’s leadership. Neither will he be one of the four organic positions of the dome nor will he coordinate any commission and therefore will not be part of the standing committee of the current national secretariat, the reduced governing body. The former vice-president of the Parliament table, who submitted a candidacy for the secretariat as advanced by the ARA, declined to run for president or vice-president two weeks ago now and he didn’t do it a week ago either when he had to repeat the vote due to the disagreement between the outgoing management and the renovators. But this Saturday he decided to run for the Strategy and Speech commission and was defeated, according to ARA.

The result of the voting was close, but the 26 votes he received were insufficient to overcome Josep Pinyol, one of the secretaries who resigned following the impulse of the civic list, who added 31. This position was occupy in the last mandate Uriel Bertran, one of the great defenders of presenting battle to the Parliament. That the former deputy of Junts supported Josep Punga in the battle with Lluís Llach for the presidency of the ANC and then voted blank as did the rest of the members of the outgoing leadership, according to the count made by the critics, he ended up removing him from the management. Although Costa has not publicly positioned himself for this blog, in an interview on Thursday a The world he claimed that the organization should not be afraid to distance itself from “the pro-independence establishment” in the face of the Llach team’s bid to rebuild bridges with parties and organizations.
In the same interview, Costa lamented the unwillingness of the new leadership to include any former secretary or candidate who does not advocate only mobilization as a tool of struggle. “They saw themselves as having enough power to occupy all the positions and they had no interest in reaching any agreement,” he lamented. And it is that the will of the critics until now was to cover all the positions of the management to avoid divergences. “All or nothing”, said members of this reformist sector at the gates of the secretariat elections. The results confirm it. Beyond the four organic positions that were elected last Saturday with Llach as president and Noemí Zafra as vice president, the other nine coordinators are secretaries who took a position against the civic list.
Beyond Pinyol, the hard core of the leadership is made up of personalities or ex-secretaries who signed the manifesto to prevent the Assembly from promoting a grouping of voters. This is the case of former vice-president Jordi Pesarrodona, who folded for the impulse of the civic list, which will coordinate the actions in the territory, or also former vice-president Josep Cruanyes, who will be the most responsible for the area of Legal Management and Security . Also the historic trade unionist Carles Sastre or the activist Elisenda Romeu, until now spokesperson for the Reprisaled Persons section of the Assembly.
