Torrent Opposition Intensifies Talks To Unseat PP Mayor With No Motion Submitted

Negotiations hinge on ex‑Vox councillor Guillermo del Real following a razor‑thin Socialist leadership change.

Overview

  • Municipal sources report PSPV and Compromís have stepped up contacts with Guillermo del Real in recent days, yet no agreement has been finalized.
  • City officials confirmed that no no‑confidence motion had been registered on Tuesday morning.
  • The 25‑seat council stands tied at 12–12 between PP‑Vox and the left, leaving the non‑attached councillor’s vote decisive.
  • Del Real quit Vox in April but kept his seat after serving as the party’s local leader and first deputy mayor, depriving the PP‑Vox bloc of its majority.
  • If a motion were filed and approved, sources say former mayor Jesús Ros would be expected to return to the mayoralty.
