Abascal promises that he will count every Vox vote to repeal Sánchez's "ideological" laws

Vox has started the electoral pre-campaign showing off muscle. In front of an Ifema (Madrid) auditorium packed with more than a thousand supporters of the extreme right, the president of the formation, Santiago Abascal, has promised that he will assert each and every one of Vox's votes to try to repeal the "ideological" laws "approved by the Government of Pedro Sánchez: the yes is yes law, the Housing law, the Democratic Memory law, the Euthanasia law...

The message that the leader of the ultra formation wanted to convey today has been clear: the path his party wants to follow is that of pacts with the Popular Party, such as the one reached in the Valencian Community. The same one that has allowed Vox to enter more than a hundred town halls after reaching agreements with the popular ones. That is the "sensible" path and not the case of Extremadura, whose Popular Party leaders have been urged to "get off the donkey."

The pacts reached after the 28-M elections, which consolidated Vox as the third force on the political board, reduce its presence in the institutions to councils or councils with few powers or a scarce budget, but enough to wage their particular cultural war from within the institutions: eliminating areas of Equality or taking over those of Culture, Citizen Security or Rural Environment, from where they can fly their own electoral banners.

The objective is to try to transfer the same operation to the national level, at a time when the majority of polls give results close to the absolute majority of the Popular Party and Vox combined. If the governability of the country depends on their seats, the price they will put on them will be "changing the course of Spain" through the repeal of "all the ideological laws of the left."

Abascal, supported by the leadership of the party, has begun by naming the law of yes is yes, the star norm of the Ministry of Equality led by Irene Montero. A norm that, in his opinion, "attacks the safety of women." Also the Housing Law because in his opinion "attacks private property." Instead he has promised "a law so that all Spaniards can access a decent home."

The leader of the ultra formation has assured that the family will be "present" in the next legislature in which, if they are decisive in the new parliamentary arithmetic, "life, the protection of the most disadvantaged, will be put at the center. accompanying our elders". A possible reform of the abortion law, a scenario in which the Popular Party does not feel comfortable at all. And they know it.

Abascal has also referred to the Field, which will be very present in his electoral campaign, according to party sources. One of the measures that he has promised is the repeal of the Law on Animal Welfare, approved by the Ministry led by Ione Belarra in this legislature. In his opinion it is a norm "that prevents life in the countryside."
