Gabriel Rufián has dreamed tonight. Like Martin Luther King's 'I have a dream'. Except that Ruffian's has been a nightmare. He has turned the American activist daydream on its head. He stated it this afternoon at an ERC campaign event in Lloret de Mar. "It's so bad because it's quite probable," the ERC number one has assured Congress. “The nightmare” included the following: “Pitingo, Minister of Culture; Desokupa, Ministry of Housing; Ortega-Smith, Minister of Justice, Abascal, Minister of the Interior; president, Feijóo; Bertín Osborne, presenter of the newscast; Pepe Reina, Minister of Sports; Arévalo and Vaquerizo, a special program every Saturday night”.
The Republican has ironized in this way the possibility that the PP and Vox will settle in Moncloa after the general elections on July 23. A possibility that outlines the survey published today by La Vanguardia.
To reverse this "nightmare" he has claimed the useful vote for ERC. In his opinion, it is not worth opting for the PSOE, "for the party of Felipe González" -who recently opted to let the list with the most votes be the one that governs-, "for the party of Pepe Zaragoza, Gracía-Page or of the president of Congress [Meritxell Batet, also head of the PSC list] who vetoes Catalan in Congress”. Nor would the possibility of voting for Sumar be valid, because. Here, the Republican has once again reproached Yolanda Díaz for leaving the leader of Podemos, Irene Montero, "thrown in the ditch."
His nightmare also included the outlawing of the pro-independence parties and entities, the repeal of the laws of consent, abortion, measures in favor of the LGTBIQ collective, the Housing law, in addition to the Democratic Memory law. "And nine people, nine politicians who worked and gave up literally years of their lives so that Catalonia could vote, go back to prison."
"ERC will fight against the current political, media and judicial fascism", Rufián assured in conclusion and after reviewing the 90-year history of Esquerra before demanding that the electorate go to the polls to prevent "the Spain that says that Txapote vote for you”.
Teresa Jordà, who forms a tandem with Rufián on the Esquerra list, also participated in the campaign event. He has insisted on the idea that in the face of a right wing that "runs wild" and a "neo-Francoism that threatens to rule our lives" it is necessary, in his opinion, to vote in favor of ERC and to avoid abstention "Abstention is an idea crazy!”, Josep Maria Terricabras, candidate for the Republican Senate, had denounced minutes before.
Montse Bassa, head of the ERC list in Girona, has not been left behind either. Without biting her tongue, she has described the PSOE as an "enemy". It is, in his opinion, because the Socialists do not admit an amnesty "that reduces repression" and does not recognize the right to self-determination. "They themselves have declared themselves enemies of the Catalan people, of the Catalan nation," Bassa has come to say.
With all this said, the candidate has justified the support given in January 2020 to the inauguration of Pedro Sánchez: “We gave an opportunity to dialogue with a coalition government in which Unida Podemos was, which recognized the right to self-determination; but now they have become Sumar, who does not recognize her”.
