The PP is back on the streets and it will be shortly before the 45th anniversary of the Constitution. It will be the first weekend of December and the reason will again be to say no to the amnesty, on the eve of the processing of the law proposal, for which the PSOE and its partners in Congress have requested the declaration of urgency
The event will be convened exclusively by the PP. And he will do it without responding to Santiago Abascal’s call to meet to agree on a unitary action that the PP rejects.
Alberto Núñez Feijóo announced the new mobilization in an interview with Antena 3, in which he reiterated that his party will continue the crusade against criminal pardons for those responsible for the process, both on the street and in the institutions, in Congress, in the Senate, in European Parliament and the autonomous communities.
The PP will return to the streets “to defend equality and the Constitution”, he said.
The battle against the amnesty law is the main objective of the PP in this legislature, which in its opinion is not constitutional, but it is also not “moral or ethical”. It is, they say, “extreme leadership, which is not typical of a democratic country”.
For Feijóo, “it is not acceptable that in Spain the Royal House has sat in the dock, (with reference to Iñaki Urdangarin), has been convicted and gone to prison, and those who have committed crimes of prevarication go unpunished , corruption, embezzlement and have proclaimed the independence of Catalonia”.
Of the new government, Feijóo only saves Jordi Hereu, whom he assures that he knows well, and that he is “a hope”, because he is “a moderate person”, who will finally be able to deal with industrial policy, which in his opinion it has been abandoned in the previous legislature, and that it is “very necessary for Spain”.
Of the other ministers, he believes there are eight or nine left. He does not understand that what in the previous legislature were secretaries of State, such as housing and the urban agenda, have become ministries, or that the Youth Institute has become a ministry, or that Equality or social policies , which are powers transferred to the autonomous communities, remain ministries.
For Feijóo, it is an “activist, militant” government, with “two economic heads”, vice-presidents Calviño and Montero, and with Óscar Puente as minister, who does not consider it to be “a scourge of Feijóo”, but “a scourge on the intellect intelligence and parliamentarism, without the slightest style”.
Of all the ministers, Feijóo emphasizes that Justice has joined the Presidency, a fact which, in his judgment, represents the culmination of “the maximum politicization of justice”.
That’s why he doesn’t expect anything from Bolaños and sees it as difficult for him to renew the General Council of the Judiciary. Not that he considers it impossible, but he remembers that Minister Bolaños “lied to us” in the previous negotiation “and we have it documented”.
Feijóo referred to the last time that PP and PSOE negotiated this issue and the Minister of the Presidency assured that he had no intention of repealing the crime of sedition that he had already agreed with ERC.
Feijóo assured in this interview that “we want to renew it – he affirmed -, but as Europe says, let the judges elect the judges, and the jurists of recognized prestige be elected by the Congress and the Senate”. In other words, “if the independence of justice is sought, there will be renewal, but if justice is sought to be politicized, no”.
