This initiative, which contains a specific action Decalogue for future public office, shall be signed tomorrow in the federal seat of an important and significant number of candidates municipal and regional. Izquierda Unida
held at its headquarters in a major federal political act, framed by the fundraising the next municipal and regional elections of 22-M, which should reflect the public signing of the document 'Ethical Commitment by the Democratic Regeneration. " This document sets out a specific action Decalogue by him / as candidates for this training undertake a number of commitments to his constituents ahead of his public activity.
to IU, "the trickle of irregularities in different public and the accumulation of serious corruption scandals damaged the credibility of institutions and policy, undermine the public trust, undermine the very foundations of the democratic system, cause distrust from citizens and give ammunition to the unfair statement that "all are equal", paving the ground for populism. "
This training makes clear his opinion that "the majority of English politicians are honest. The 8,115 municipalities are composed of more than 65,000 elected councilors, of which 80% have no income, "but" in the last decade, cases of corruption have multiplied throughout the country, especially on the Mediterranean coast and other areas who have experienced exorbitant urban development. "
"When I committed the crime of corruption-is she says, elected officials or government responsibilities in contempt for democratic principles of honesty, transparency, accountability and public vocation that legitimize the delegation of sovereignty which the people give them. "
The paper assesses that "corruption in Spain has been and is inseparable from the ravings of a production model, economic and financial that has fueled speculation and criminal practices, especially in urban and in the field of construction, with an explosive growth of housing stock, which since 2001 has grown by more than 20%, in a process of urbanization unprecedented in the last fifteen years and unparalleled in Europe. "
It adds that "tax evasion and persistence of the shadow economy is also a breeding ground for corruption. To this is added to the inadequate regulation and supervision of financial markets, coupled with a loss of moral and ethical values \u200b\u200bin a culture that has been enthroned as absolute money. There is no corrupted without corrupting and no charge if someone does not pay. For this to be so hard on the corrupter and the corrupted. "
In 'ethical commitments Democratic Regeneration' UI makes a special mention the problem of municipal funding gap "has led to excessive dependence on revenue from planning, driving the housing bubble and sowing a breeding ground for corruption. The failure of successive governments committed to reform local funding has led many municipalities to an unsustainable economic and financial situation. The basket of expenditure and revenue is very unbalanced in favor of the State, which accounts for 50% and the Autonomous Communities, 37%, while municipalities receive only 13%. "
"Corruption in Spain, believes IU has been well-fed by the lack of an unfair electoral law and a law on party funding purely instrumental and opaque, designed both to promote bipartisanship and increase spending for campaigns. The so-called "Pact against turncoat" signed between the political forces has proved of little use since its conclusion in 1998, due to the cynical use several yardsticks as offenders are an adverse party or his own. "
