A change like that of 1982. It is the goal that the president of the PP has set for himself, but not because of the number of deputies obtained. Felipe González got 202 seats, something unthinkable today in Spain, no matter how many efforts Feijóo makes, but he does want a change like the one in 1982, in what it means. "Let the change of 2023 be like the change of 1982 was."
In Galicia, before 12,000 people who filled the bullring in Pontevedra, in the presence of the former Prime Minister, Mariano Rajoy, his successor at the head of the Xunta, Alfonso Rueda, and his political mentor, the former minister and former president of the Council of State, José Manuel Romay Beccaría, the leader of the PP compared the two changes.
He explained that in his tour of Spain, he has noticed a common feeling in the majority of Spaniards "we no longer trust the Government" and the change that he proposes for 23-j is "to be able to trust the next government". For this reason, he stressed, if Felipe González explained in 1982 that the change meant "that Spain works", he affirms that in 2023 "the change means that we can trust the Government again, that is the change of 2023, as was the change of the 82".
Trusting the Government means, for Alberto Núñez Feijóo, "not being in the queue for economic positions", trusting the Government's position on the Sahara "and that it does not change overnight", or that it does not "play at ambiguity", criticizing defense spending "and sticking out his chest for military spending".
According to the popular leader, to be able to trust the Government is for the executive to have "stability" which is to have "legal security, that it does not lurch, that companies trust Spain, and that those that are not there can come." He also means "not to insult anyone", because, he stressed, "taxes are paid here but no one is insulted", alluding to the insults of a part of the Government to certain businessmen.
For the president of the PP, trusting the government is being able to trust the institutions again, which translates into "not wondering how many unemployed there are for real or how many are hidden in the lists." The change means going back to "trusting the CIS and not taking it as a joke", recovering the separation of powers unequivocally, with a promise, if any of its deputies or ministers say that the judges are "faces in robes ", "He leaves, from the parliamentary group or leaves the Government".
For Feijóo, the change "is trust in young people" and not "pecking their future" with a debt like the existing one, and "not cheating with false checks or false free ones", in response to aid such as the cultural bonus that has launched by the Government, or announcements such as that the University will be free for those who pass the first time.
The popular leader stressed that the change is "confidence in the given word" and that is what he is committed to, and for this reason, Alberto Núñez Feijóo also wants "to be president of the Government of Spain so that when my term ends the Spaniards say, you have not deceived us, we have trusted you, we will have liked you more or less, but you have been an honest, coherent president and you have not been a lying president. I will not be what they say I have never been. I will not be Pedro Sánchez" .
In order to be that president, Feijóo asks for the vote, to "break the blocks that have been built in the citizenship and the political blocks that sanchismo has built." A vote to change the alliances against, for state pacts ", as he says he has done in Galicia, attracting all political signs, to build that majority that allows him to govern" with a one-piece government ".
He wants it to happen as in Galicia, he stressed, that they voted for him, "voters who did not vote for us in the municipal elections, who abstained in the general ones, voters of the PSOE, of Cs, of Vox, new voters", and that all of them managed to their absolute majorities were 48% percent of the voters.
He assures that this "is what I am pursuing now", and he is convinced that "it is possible", because the Spanish, he affirmed, "prefer understanding to confrontation, firmness in principles to intransigence in extremes, good management to taxes and more taxes to try to buy wills; public service to arrogance; commitment and general interest to sanchismo, and he prefers change because he believes that this country is better than what it has become in these years". He empowers the vote, in short, to those who "trust their country, trust in the pacts, in the reforms, and in Spain."
Mariano Rajoy, in the only act in which he will coincide with Núñez Feijóo, although he will campaign more -on Wednesday he will coincide in Murcia with José María Aznar- expressed his full support for the popular candidate, with whom he showed great harmony: "he is a great ruler and he has shown it, because four absolute majorities are not won by being a bad ruler".
A candidate, stressed the former president of the Government, which is "a guarantee that all Spaniards will be governed", and to conclude that "Spain needs a president like Feijóo. A president who brings calm and efficiency", because the Spaniards, he stressed, "They are fed up with division and confrontation", which makes it necessary "a change of government so that there is another way of governing, and a different style of doing politics."
Mariano Rajoy does not doubt the victory of Feijóo, because that is how, he said, the Spanish express it, and that is how they said it in the elections of 28-M, which supposed, he stressed, "an amendment to the entire Frankenstein government", and in the elections of 23-j what is chosen is "between Alberto Núñez Feijóo and the PP, or the Frankenstein Government".
