Partners in Bilbao: "Despite the final verdict, we do not accept your intrigue"

The Bilbao Partners have learned "from the beginning" that there was "nothing illegal" in the selection of the chupinera 2013. After the Superior Court of the Basque Country found out that the parties had been "right", those who "constantly ruin the party" were told "we do not want you" by several parties during the apparition in Plaza Arriaga.

The Administrative Department of the Superior Court of the Basque Country informed the Federation yesterday that the Bilbao Council has annulled its decision on the election of the chupinera of 2013, since "it has not found anything illegal in it".

The Comparsas have learned "from the beginning" that there was no illegality in the selection of the Jone Artola partner of the Txori Barrote Comparsa. And although "they have given us their reason", the comparsas have confirmed again today in Plaza Arriaga what they said from the beginning of the process: "Despite the final verdict, we do not accept your intrigue." In fact, according to Selector Oihana Pascual, "for us this resolution has no value or interest, because it is not up to the room that has issued the resolution to make a decision on this issue."Once again, they wanted to reiterate that the Semana Grande and the attack against the festive model "will not violate the idyll towards the party that unites all Bilbao".

The government representative Carlos Urkijo, who opposed Jone Artola’s election in 2013, and the state attorney who filed the complaint have been indirectly referred to in the hearing. The members accuse them of "constantly spoiling the party" and clearly say "we don't want you". "Fortunately," they add, "the festive model of Bilbao was born armored to withstand the stupidities of the slogans."

The "dark intentions" that have lasted for three years will be transformed by the Bilbao Comparsas into "colors", because "we are colors", they say when they take off the black t-shirt that says "defending the Big Week" they wore and show the colored t-shirts they wore underneath. "Eleven are our colors; and we, the Compartians, will unite these eleven colors and continue with a force working and fighting for the festive model that is the basis of the Great Week."
