In less than 24 hours, the national leadership of the PP has heeded José María Aznar’s call for a civic and institutional mobilization against the amnesty and the right to self-determination, which in his opinion means ending the Constitution, and the national leadership of the PP announces a public event, in Madrid, on the weekend of September 23, so that Spaniards can speak out against the amnesty that Pedro Sánchez is supposedly negotiating with Junts, for the investiture of the socialist candidate.
The announcement was made this morning by the general secretary of the PP, Cuca Gamarra, during an interview on the Espejo Público program on Antena 3, where she stressed that it will be a “great event” and if time permits “it will be open so that society can participate”.
The number two of the PP stressed that the PP “will promote a great act so that society can participate in the rejection of any instrument that, outside the law, Sánchez can promote to obtain a series of votes in exchange for power.”
Gamarra considers that “it is necessary for those of us who do not agree with the amnesty, the self-determination referendum and the rupture of equality between Spaniards, which is outside our constitutional framework, to mobilize and demonstrate.”
The general secretary of the PP emphasizes that not only Aznar has spoken of mobilization, Feijóo also “was very clear, ensuring that the PP would respond to the amnesty “from the political but also from the social sphere.” Within this mobilization, that the former president of the PP called Civic and institutional, Gamarra frames the initiatives that the party will present in all democratic institutions and citizen mobilizations.
The PP, Cuca Gamarra also assured, supports the demonstration called by Catalan Civil Society for next October 8 so that citizens can freely say “not in my name”, because, he emphasizes, “there is an alternative to the amnesty promoted by Sánchez.” and it is, as Alberto Núñez Feijóo has been saying, “a minority government of the PP, which won the elections”, with an approach of State pacts “so that this country is not conditioned by politicians who want to break the equality of the Spaniards “.
For the popular leader, “an amnesty would be agreeing with those who promoted a coup against the State,” which is why she reproaches the Sánchez Government for “being silent in the face of this.” At the same time, Cuca Gamarra demanded that the acting spokesperson minister, Isabel Rodríguez, “rectify her attacks on former President Aznar” and criticized her for “seeking a hyper performance to generate smoke screens and thus not assume responsibilities.
The number two of the PP criticized “the exercise of moral perversion of the acting Government, which signals to the Democrats that we say that we do not agree with the amnesty and the referendum, but does not have a single word about Puigdemont, a fugitive from the justice, and about the meeting that Vice President Díaz had with him.
For Gamarra, it is logical that the Spanish assume that Sánchez is negotiating the amnesty with Puigdemont, because he has not come out to say that the amnesty is non-negotiable, as Alberto Núñez Feijóo has done from minute one, who minutes after The former president of the Generalitat came out publicly to say that under these conditions he would not negotiate, and that “neither amnesty, nor referendum, nor rupture of the equality of Spaniards.”
He recalled that Alberto Núñez Feijóo could be president of Spain if he accepted Puigdemont’s conditions as the general secretary of the PSOE does, but the president of the PP “has principles that he will not break due to the desire for power.” He asked Sánchez to do what himself, because “no one who wants to serve Spain should be willing to pay the price that Puigdemont sets.”
