Overview
- Junts said a delegation of mayors and councillors urged Carles Puigdemont to escalate pressure on the PSOE, accusing it of blocking legislation against illegal squatting and multirecidivism in Congress.
- Municipal representatives asked for a sharper strategy ahead of the 2027 local elections to address public concerns on security, housing and immigration in order to stem advances by Aliança Catalana.
- Party leaders characterized the Waterloo meeting as coordinated action rather than internal dissent, though recent weeks have seen unease among some mayors over direction and visibility.
- Junts has intensified efforts to hold Salvador Illa politically responsible for delays tied to the Brussels accord, arguing he is not pushing the PSOE hard enough on agreed measures.
- Some figures are weighing tactical options to regain momentum, with one report describing a studied but unconfirmed idea of an ‘instrumental’ no-confidence motion with the PP to force elections.
