Social Sciences - Government / Politics / govt meeting
Spanish term or phrase: posiciones de partida
Sé distinguir perfectamente entre los límites de lo exigible y la realidad política pero hay unas ciertas posiciones de partida que creo que resultan irrenunciables para esta Cámara.

Since this concerns the situación presupestaria, I'm not sure if this person is making a pun which would need to be translated into a different English saying or if he is talking directly about the budget. From the transcript of a debate and therefore may contain typos. Thank you!
