The PP will appeal the amnesty law before the courts “with all the legal instruments at our disposal.” He will also “ask for protection from the European Union, and we will surely get it,” and when he reaches the Senate “we will give a voice to all those who have tried to remain silent” and “we will democratically rescue our country from the moral misery to which it is being condemned.”
The president of the PP, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, ended with this announcement his intervention during the debate on the amnesty law in Congress, in a harsh speech against the president of the Government, who he sees “with assisted breathing” and immersed in “a humiliation constant” on the part of the independentistas.
A law, Feijóo said, that “is a payment” to the independence movement for supporting his inauguration, although the magazine of “generosity and coexistence”, where there is only “parliamentary need.”
And despite this, the president of the PP sees the Government subjected “to constant humiliation” and has turned “every vote into an ordeal”, because the independence movement – he said – has taken the measure” and Sánchez “has decided to be a hostage “.
For Feijóo, the amnesty law “has been infamous from minute one,” but every day, he stressed, “it has become a greater obscenity” until turning it, he said, into a “Russian matryoshka,” words with which he was trying to allude to the connections of the independence movement with Russia that a judge from Barcelona is investigating.
And, according to the president of the PP, “his work in recent weeks has consisted of setting successive traps” to prevent the judges from doing their work, believing, as the deputy of En Comú Podem, Gerardo Pisarello, said, “that the legislative power has no limits”, because it considers that “this is not a legal state”, or hearing the Junts spokesperson say that
Feijóo reproached Sánchez for his changes of opinion and those of the PSOE, now stating that “there is light terrorism, which is not that bad either,” but warned him that “there is no form of terrorism that does not violate human rights.” He reminded the President of the Government that he previously maintained that what happened in Catalonia in 2017 was not a sedition, “but a rebellion; that the amnesty was clearly unconstitutional; that the police had suffered unforgivable violence, that they could not be left alone the constitutionalist Catalans, and that Junts was the xenophobic right”.
Taking up the words that the President of the Government spoke on Sunday in an interview in the newspaper La Vanguardia, Alberto Núñez Feijóo asked himself “at what point in the ‘fachosphere’ was Mr. Sánchez then?” Feijóo’s conclusion is that “history will not give you amnesty.” The reality, according to Feijóo, is that “they maintain the office thanks to former President Puigdemont. His salary and his office are owed to him”, when during the campaign what he promised was that “he would put Puigdemont before Justice.”
He also reproached him for listening without flinching to tell the Junts spokesperson, Miriam Nogueras, “that there is judicial repression, that the judicial leadership is corrupt, that there are prevaricating judges.” “And what has the Government done,” the PP leader asked himself, with a question that he himself answered: “Shut up and leave.” But already this afternoon, according to Feijóo, because “Junts has portrayed Sánchez and the entire PSOE”
Feijóo questioned the Bildu spokesperson to reproach him for wanting to give lessons on what is or is not terrorism. “Was it yours?” he said, and asked if “it’s worth what you want,” which in his opinion is “to have a good precedent for the sentences that you want to amnesty,” in reference to the ETA terrorists. .
He also questioned the Junts spokesperson, Miriam Nogueras, to whom he asked if “they give up on declaring independence again or Mrs. Borrás Borras is right” and not give up on going to independence unilaterally.
