Murcia was a mandatory stop for Alberto Núñez Feijóo, after Vox blocked the inauguration of the new government due to the refusal of Fernando López Miras to include councilors from this party in his Council of Government, which has led to two failed votes . The still acting president of Murcia was two votes short of an absolute majority, after obtaining 43% of the votes, and only needs the abstention of those from Abascal, which is why he assures that he is not prepared to share the seats .
From Murcia, the president of the PP believes that he can see himself in a similar situation after the elections of 23-J, and more so after Monday’s debate gave him wings and made him assume that he can achieve a sufficient majority. For this reason, he appealed to the useful vote to concentrate it on the popular ones without the need to resort to the extreme right.
Feijóo aspires to the results achieved in 2001 by José María Aznar, with whom he shared the podium yesterday, when he obtained 44.52% of the votes and 183 deputies.
The aim is to secure votes for Vox that result in more advantage over the PSOE, and for this reason the ultra party was the object of his criticism yesterday, to the point of placing it on the side of those who “don’t they want Sánchez to leave”.
That’s why Feijóo listed the “multiple voting options for Sánchez to stay”, starting with “voting for the Sanchez party”; Sumar, “which is a set of remnants of people who have engaged with Podemos”, ERC Bildu and Carles Puigdemont’s party. However, at the same level he placed “those who want the PP to govern, but who do not vote for the PP”, in a clear allusion to Vox. “They will all make it easier for Sánchez to stay in the Spanish government after losing,” the popular leader stressed. “If Sanchismo and Vox want to remain allies”. That is why he is calling for “an end to irresponsibility, let’s make the change that the citizens are asking for”, and for an end to “blackmail and clamps”.
In the same vein, the former president of the Spanish government, José María Aznar, sent several messages to Vox, Abascal and its voters, although at no time did he mention the far-right party. He assured that “if they continue to put sticks in the wheels, the sticks will fall and the bicycle will continue”; that “it is not time to put sticks in the wheels. That they are wrong”, and called on the voters of the far-right formation to join the great majority that Feijóo needs, “a solid and strong majority”, bigger than they expect, he predicted.
Despite the fact that he did not quote Santiago Abascal, whom he knows very well from his time in the PP, José María Aznar sent him a message to ask him to live up to it. For this reason, he turned to a prominent politician from the beginning of the 20th century, whose name he did not reveal, who said that if a statesman expects to be thanked when he leaves, he is not a great statesman. This, translated to the current situation and the current situation, was translated by Aznar as “a political leader who is not able to value the historical moment he lives in is not a good political leader”.
On the contrary, he considers that Feijóo “understands the moment” and “does not aspire to the government to be in the government, but to improve Spain”. “We want to win the elections to continue the history of Spain, to continue the history of transition, so that no one makes us go back or look back, because we agreed to look forward”, he proclaimed, to add that the Spaniards agreed “not to face each other again”, but “to do things together”.
In this sense, he emphasized that Spain “is not divided or divided” and the Constitution is “the guarantee of the coexistence of all Spaniards”, so that it is guaranteed that the law is complied with and applied “when it is challenged”. without receiving “any favorable treatment”.
