The PP offensive continues on all fronts against the Government and is extended to the organizations that, without being part of the executive branch, are intertwined with it, as is the case of the State Attorney General’s Office, a body of constitutional relevance integrated with functional autonomy in the judicial branch and which is currently chaired by Álvaro García Ortiz.

Thus, the deputy secretary of institutional affairs of the PP, Esteban González Pons, has attacked the attorney general after having been corrected by the Supreme Court, which has agreed with Ignacio Stampa, Madrid prosecutor and former anti-corruption prosecutor, in his claim for that he be given a full copy of the proceedings of an inspection opened against him between 2012 and 2016 following a complaint for “disrespectful attitude.”

“Never before has a state attorney general been convicted by the Supreme Court and now we break the record because he is convicted for the second time,” González Pons exclaimed from Brussels, recalling that the Third Chamber of the High Court had already assessed on one occasion previous “diversion of power in the state attorney general.”

“I believe that there are sufficient reasons for him to assume his responsibility and resign. Professional competence must be demanded from a State Attorney General, but also dignity and respect from his professional colleagues,” argued González Pons, who is the one negotiating for part of the PP the renewal of the General Council of the Judiciary (CGPJ) in Brussels, with the supervision of the Commissioner of Justice, Didier Reynders, and the Minister of the Presidency, Justice and Relations with the Courts, Félix Bolaños, sitting on the other side of table.

“Today no prosecutor feels represented by the State Attorney General, which is the clear confirmation of what sanchismo is in justice: intervention, lack of independence, lack of professionalism and abuse of power,” González Pons stated. .

In another order of things, González Pons himself has announced that the PP will appeal the decision of the Office of Conflicts of Interest (OCI) to archive the complaint filed due to the participation of the wife of the President of the Government, Begoña Gómez, in conversations with directors of Air Europa shortly before its rescue by the Pedro Sánchez Executive.

For the popular leader, the president uses the OCI, dependent on the Secretary of State for Public Function, “to protect those around him and himself,” according to González Pons, who added that the PP has presented a document to this office, which elucidates the incompatibilities of senior officials, requesting the file.

“We believe that this file does not exist; because there has not been time in 24 hours to process it, and because all the procedures that we asked them to carry out it is impossible for them to have been carried out. In addition, it draws our attention that the PSOE knew one day before that they notify us what the resolution was going to be and that it reproduces the arguments in their press releases,” he noted.

In this sense, he has argued that the OIC “did not even” inform in its brief response which court should be appealed to. “Instead of being an office that monitors the conflicts of interest of the members of the Government, it is an office that has itself incurred a conflict of interest because it has confused the interest of Pedro Sánchez with that of the Government of Spain, the cleanliness and transparency”.
