Sánchez stands up to the PP: "How few good people there are in his country and how powerful they are"

Already in the middle of the electoral campaign of 28-M, Pedro Sánchez is willing to extract oil from the demand of Alberto Núñez Feijóo so that he stops bothering "good people" with the legislation that he promotes in favor of the new civil rights. "How few good people there are in your country and how powerful they are," the head of the Executive reproached, this Wednesday, the spokesperson for the Popular Party, Cuca Gamarra, during the government control session in Congress.

Sánchez has once again denounced that the main opposition party "does not lend a hand in anything." And so he has warned that when the PP votes against the increase in the interprofessional minimum wage it must be because it interprets that its beneficiaries are not "good people". Neither are retirees, who have seen their pensions revalued according to the CPI despite the opposition of the PP. "And when they vote against the tax on large energy companies and financial institutions, it will be because they consider that these people are good," he pointed out, defending his policies for the social majority of the country against the "elitist and powerful minority" to which that makes sure you serve it right.

Gamarra has insisted, as Feijóo did the day before in the Senate, in blaming Sánchez for the resignations that have occurred in the face of the fiasco of the trains designed for Cantabria and Asturias, the largest tunnels through which they had to circulate, while in The Government has not turned heads after the effects of the application of the law of the only yes is yes, which has recalled that it has already caused 544 sex offenders to have their sentences reduced, and another 50 have been released.

"Why are there resignations with the trains and not with the women victims of sexual assault?", the PP spokesperson required the Prime Minister. "Ridicule and electoral panic have defeated the minister who does not know about infrastructure, but who has ended up dismissing the Secretary of State and the friend who was placed in charge of Renfe," Gamarra denounced. “What are you waiting for to dismiss Minister Irene Montero? The trains do but the sex offenders don't?" Sánchez has summoned.

The leader of the PSOE, just as he did the day before with Javier Maroto, has ironized the support that Gamarra expressed a year ago, before his fall, to the then leader of the PP, Pablo Casado, to immediately take sides with Alberto Núñez Feijóo. “There are people who unfairly say that you change your jacket. I believe that this is not the case, what changes is the head of the PP but you continue to do the same, which is to venerate the head of the PP ”, he underlined.

An eye for an eye, the PP spokeswoman replied that "the biggest change of jacket that has occurred in the last stage is his, because he promised his voters that he would not govern with Podemos or agree with Bildu." "And those millions of voters are the ones he has betrayed during this legislature," she denounced. Already in the halls of Congress, Gamarra has assured that those who feel disappointed by Sánchez are "good people".

Gamarra, in turn, has indicated that Sánchez does not dismiss the Minister of Equality, Irene Montero, because he does not have control over his coalition partner in the Government, United We Can. “If you have to be in her government, it is much better to be a communist than a socialist. Because of the 40 ministers that you lead, you have not dared to touch any of Podemos. And look, they are working on it!”, the PP spokesperson has incited.
