After the public exchange of letters yesterday Sunday between the two candidates for the investiture, Pedro Sánchez and Alberto Núñez Feijóo, in which the acting president of the Government refused to hold a meeting with the president of the PP, both are fighting to settle their story and be in a position of advantage over his rival in the face of an investiture.
This is what the socialist candidate tried to do this Monday in a video posted on social networks, in which after verifying that "those who proposed the repeal and setback are not the majority", alluding to PP and Vox, Sánchez appeals to translate "a broad social majority", which he believes he could still expand, into a "parliamentary majority" to work for his investiture.
Completely ignoring the summons of the PP to rectify "the slam" that Sánchez gave yesterday to Feijóo's claims to meet with him to ensure "governance", the PSOE general secretary has claimed again to go to an investiture of the hand of his usual allies.
"I am convinced that there is a broad social majority to continue advancing," said the acting head of the Executive, for whom he has called for expanding this majority to incorporate people who, according to him, "distanced themselves from the progressive government for the fatigue of these hard years or as a consequence of the intense propaganda displayed by the duo PP and Vox"
"Now it is time to translate this social majority into a parliamentary majority in the Congress of Deputies and that is what we are going to do when the Cortes are constituted: work for an investiture that allows us to continue advancing for four more years", concluded Sánchez, who has used to value once again the results of the general elections of 23-J, which, in his opinion, would not have been possible without tens of thousands of militants and socialist sympathizers and 8 million Spaniards who placed their trust in the PSOE .
After recalling that the previous legislature was marked by the pandemic, the war in Ukraine and "other setbacks and calamities" that the Government faced to protect "companies, salaries and pensions", Sánchez assures that now a "different horizon" opens ". Thus, the leader of the PSOE is committed to consolidating economic growth, reindustrializing Spain, achieving full employment, advancing rights. For the acting President of the Government, "it is time to rebuild political, social and territorial cohesion" and to "leave sterile confrontation and political corruption behind".
