The CUP municipal group met this Monday with the Compromís government team in La Seu d'Urgell to discuss the city's budget proposals for the current year.

The anti-capitalist party expressed 'low confidence' in the negotiations, citing the poor implementation of previous agreements. Key areas of concern include public housing, children's leisure, and local environmental audits near the Segre River.

"We reaffirm our will to continue working to build a budget with a marked social character."

While the local administration cites austerity as a necessity, the CUP argues that the current left-wing majority in the council should be used to advance transformative social policies and support local commerce.
