Why crisis management in Orihuela Council?

The three Councillors leading the parties making up the Orihuela Town Council tripartite government would appear to be well educated people. I believe one is a solicitor and the other two are teachers by profession.

So how come they don't seem to have the abilities to make their parties act as an effective government for the municipality, for the benefit of the inhabitants?

Why do they act as if their policies are based on crisis management rather than forward looking objective management, which would lead to a better future for their constituents?

They remind me of fairground dodgems going round and round in circles until they bump into something (problem) and then change to a new random, unplanned, direction.

Who is responsible?

Theory of Spain's political class.

This is a link to a very interesting article by César Molinas. It is an extract from his forthcoming work entitled ¿Qué hacer con España? (or, What to do with Spain?) due for publishig in 2013. Here he analyzes some of the causes at the root of the country's current problems.

His conclusions and portrayal of the political elite of Spain I find very compatible with my own experience and views of local and national politics in Spain.
