The president of the Valencian Council, Pérez Llorca, started the political season with a visit to the areas affected by fires in the province of Castelló. The columnist acknowledges that the decision was timely, but considers it equally disappointing and useless. The visit happened after the fires had been controlled.
The mayors of the affected areas expected that the president's visit would come with money, measures and resources to deal with the consequences of the fires. What they received, according to the author, were only empty announcements.
The article mentions that Pérez Llorca is the political heir of Mazón, possibly referring to a political or administrative continuity. The expectation of the municipalities was for concrete support, but the president's photo opportunity was not accompanied by real actions.
The title of the article, "Fum per combatre el foc", which means "Smoke to fight the fire", reflects the author's criticism that the visit was more a matter of appearance than of effective help to those affected by the fires.
