Dedicated to promoting initiatives from civil society like España Mejor, with the goal of influencing public policies based on democratic regeneration, she has finally decided to run in the November 29th elections with a new political party: Democracy 21. The group, which was presented last Saturday in Madrid, aims to make a mark in the upcoming elections as a centrist option, despite having expected general elections next year and not immediately. At the same time, parties like Citizens have become involved in the form of a coalition with the hope of reviving the reformist space. Be that as it may, how does Miriam González plan to stand out in a context of maximum polarization between the right and the left? </p>]]></description>

In any case, he is committed to maintaining the pro-independence unity formula, which includes the CUP (within Guanyem Girona), Junts, and ERC, and even to expanding it.</p>]]></description>
