The PP has decided to go all out for the European elections on June 9, in which it plans to be the party with the most votes and hopes to do so with a great advantage over the PSOE, and to do so it will mobilize the streets at the very start of the campaign. , with a demonstration against the amnesty and “the suspicion of corruption” that hangs over the Government of Pedro Sánchez.
This was announced by the PP spokesperson, Borja Sémper, after the meeting of the steering committee, which he has set for May 26, two days after the start of the electoral campaign to elect the new European Parliament, a “civic act ” which is intended to be “transversal” and with which the popular people want to make a new show of force in the streets of Madrid.
After the “vaudeville that has embarrassed the Spaniards,” which is how Sémper has referred to Pedro Sánchez’s five-day reflection that a week ago culminated in his decision to continue leading the Government, the PP sees it as necessary for citizens to take the floor: “The Spaniards have gotten the hang of it,” said the popular leader, who described the president as an “egomaniac” and accused him of having lied and making decisions “aimed at his peace of mind.”
The PP considers that citizens are “exhausted” by this “policy of confrontation”, characterized by “bad education”, as Sémper has denounced. “We deserve a president who calls Spaniards to a common and shared project, not to build walls,” said the Basque deputy, who has accused Sánchez of diverting attention and being “incapable of governing,” because his partners do not they contribute to it.
Faced with this “objective description of reality”, the PP feels “embarrassed” and, in addition to questioning the politics of “playing with feelings”, in reference to the letter in which Sánchez announced his reflective withdrawal, it has announced that will defend “independent justice”, the “free press” and the “equality of Spaniards before the law”, areas compromised, in the opinion of the opposition, by the “democratic regeneration” of which the president spoke when deciding that he would continue in Moncloa.
To offer an “alternative to a president who reflects on himself” and who has promoted the “greatest act of inequality with the amnesty law”, in addition to being immersed in a “suspicion of corruption” that affects his government, his party and his family environment, the PP will promote a new demonstration on May 26 in Madrid, the fifth since Sánchez renewed his presidency.
It will be a “civic act” and, therefore, also “political,” Sémper acknowledged, in which the PP will seek to satisfy the “desire” of citizens to demonstrate and “collect the sentiment that exists in the street.” This mobilization against Sánchez, of which there are still no more details – the four previous ones were called in the Plaza de Felipe II, the Puerta del Sol, the Temple of Debod and the Plaza de España -, is addressed to “all those who are fed up and want another policy.”
