The leader of Vox, Santiago Abascal, had no plans a few weeks ago to go to Ceuta during the electoral campaign, according to reports from the party. However, there has been a change of plans in the far-right formation, which is seen with the possibility of becoming the force with the most votes next Sunday, as happened in the last general elections. Thus, the president of Vox has challenged the leader of the Popular Party to comply with his proposal for the most voted list if the ultra party wins at the polls.
Before beginning the event held in a hotel in Ceuta, Abascal has traveled several streets of the autonomous city with the feeling, as he has expressed, "that he was in Beirut." "I know what fear is and Ceuta is a city with fear," said the leader of Vox, who was surprised by the large number of National Police officers who have escorted him on his visit to the city. “So much police presence makes you fear something; Hernani looked like ”, he commented.
This supposed problem of insecurity is one of the axes of the campaign of the extreme right, especially in Ceuta. The origin of this, according to the diagnosis made by Vox, is in "consensual" irregular immigration and the culprits of it are: the Government for "the lack of control" at the border and Morocco for the migratory pressure it exerts on Spain.
For this reason, he has made a call to combat the "Moroccanization" of Ceuta on Sunday at the polls. "Here there is no religious problem, there is a problem of territorial identity and national identity, which they have been destroying," he insisted.
The formula that Abascal says he has to combat insecurity is "not to call irregular immigration." And how can it materialize? Well, in his opinion, "not giving aid to those who arrive irregularly" and incorporating the Army "in defense of the borders."
The Vox leader has also referred to the controversy of the votes bought in Melilla, which he has compared to the announcements made by the Prime Minister, Pedro Sánchez, during this electoral campaign. "What difference is there between those who buy votes on street corners with a small envelope and those who buy votes at rallies giving movies to the elderly and the Interrail and a cultural voucher to the young?" he asked. "It's vote buying, It's the socialist model."
