Key details
A new grassroots political movement named "Por Mi Pueblo" has been officially established in Manilva, emphasizing municipalism and close citizen engagement. The party held its inaugural meeting where local secretary Daniel Muñoz highlighted the need for a "fresh air" in local politics. María Leonor Muñiz, the national secretary general, stressed that the party aims to focus on real municipal needs. Juan Merino, mayor of Ojén and provincial secretary, promoted political independence from traditional parties by advocating municipalism as an effective alternative. Founder Abdeslam Lucena clarified that "Por Mi Pueblo" does not intend to become a professional political party nor participate in regional or national elections but focuses solely on benefiting the local community.
Concurrently, in Cádiz, the female chirigota "La Camorra" delivered a politically charged performance at COAC 2026 condemning Juan Manuel Moreno Bonilla, president of the Junta de Andalucía, for his management of breast cancer screenings. Led by Marta Ortiz, their lyrics accused Moreno Bonilla of neglect and incompetence, labeling his handling of healthcare as "state terrorism". They demanded his resignation, criticizing the abandonment of women's health services and highlighting lives lost due to missed medical appointments. The chirigota argued that healthcare should not be treated as a business and castigated what they perceive as the right-wing's characteristic politic of neglect.
These developments reflect the growing voice of alternative local political expressions in Spain in early 2026, with new movements striving for closer citizen connection, alongside cultural protests criticizing established political leaders and policies.
