The leader of the PP and candidate for the presidency of the Government, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, has assured this Saturday in an act held in Lleida that no one counts on him “to carry out centralist policies” or “to break the unity of the State”.
With this statement, Feijóo distances himself from both the positions opposed to the autonomous state of Vox and the pro-independence claims. “They will never hear a centralist speech from me. I am a peripheral politician, I am a politician from a community with its own language”. And he has warned: “Don’t count on me to make centralist policies. Do not count on me to break the unity of the State”.
In a clear allusion to the pro-independence positions, he has assured that “those who want to eat alone, want to eat more” and has promised that at this time “someone else is needed to preside over the Government and that is me” because “I will not be Pedro Sanchez”.
The leader of the PP has also mocked that the President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, said on Thursday in Brussels that the Spanish economy is going like a motorcycle, and has said that if it goes like a motorcycle it is “broken, without brakes, without wheels and no gasoline.”
In addition, he also referred to the message that Sánchez sent this Saturday from Kyiv of commitment to Ukraine in the war, at the beginning of the semester of the Spanish presidency of the European Council, to indicate that they “take him as a joke” in the EU because ” part of his ministers” want to get out of NATO.
“He is a president who is not capable of silencing his government while he speaks,” he said in that sense, while also criticizing Sánchez for “accepting impositions” from the Catalan and Basque sovereignists.
The president of the Popular Party made these statements at the closing of a sector event on the food system and the rural world in Gimenells (Lleida), where he outlined his proposal to solve the country’s water problems and stated that “in Spain there are water for everybody”.
His project is based on the need to reach a national water pact between different territories and actors because a government “cannot say that it is a mess and do nothing.” He has added that the calculations of the PP indicate that the agreement would have to be endowed with 40,000 million euros in investments over six years and consider the national water network as a strategic sector that the Government and autonomous communities will be obliged to protect.
In addition, the plans of the Popular Party contemplate a deep modernization of infrastructures to avoid water losses due to the deterioration of the network, more water purification systems for irrigation and industrial uses and a modernization of industries and canals.
