The PP uses the “black week of sanchismo” to rethink its idea of ​​“change of cycle”

Although it is still Wednesday, the PP is already talking about the "black week of sanchismo" to recover the idea of ​​a "change of cycle" that was glimpsed in a kind of demoscopic consensus before the last general elections but that, with the result of the ballot boxes in hand, it did not occur. The polls failed.

Ten months after 23-J, in which Alberto Núñez Feijóo was four seats away from gaining an absolute majority with Vox, the general secretary of the PP, Cuca Gamarra, has indicated that the “three pillars” on which it stands are shaky. the majority of Pedro Sánchez, who presides over a Government “exhausted by cases of corruption, nepotism and the occupation of institutions.”

In this sense, he has referred to the situation of the State Attorney General, whose dismissal he has once again demanded after the “Black Tuesday” that Álvaro García Ortiz experienced yesterday, the day in which the Supreme Court annulled the appointment of Dolores Delgado as prosecutor of Democratic Memory Chamber and the Superior Court of Justice of Madrid opened an investigation for revelation of secrets following the complaint filed by the boyfriend of Isabel Díaz Ayuso, the president of the Community, who is accused of tax fraud.

Furthermore, Gamarra has denounced that the president of the Center for Sociological Research (CIS), José Félix Tezanos, a “disciplined socialist militant” who, as he has stated, has put the public body he presides “at the service” of Pedro Sánchez, has been filed by the Central Electoral Board (JEC) for a survey that has “broken the rules of the game” and has had an impact on the Catalan campaign.

Likewise, the interim president of RTVE, Concepción Cascajosa, according to the popular leader, should not continue “not one more minute” at the head of the public entity after having been reprimanded, also by the JEC, for not respecting the impartiality of information to the public. offer an interview to the President of the Government in the middle of the electoral process, for which the other parties must be compensated. "How's gonna get done? The campaign ends on Friday,” Gamarra asked himself.

And finally, the Secretary General of Genoa has referred to the appointment of a “personal friend” of Pedro Sánchez as director of Telefónica, Carlos Ocaña Orbis, who will be proposed by the State Society of Industrial Participations (SEPI), to argue that the Government It is a “buddy placement agency.” A designation, furthermore, that does not respect, as Gamarra has proclaimed, the law of parity.

"This is not regeneration but democratic degeneration, this is sanchismo: the appointment of people from Pedro Sánchez's orbit, in this case in a private entity in which the Government has intervened," said the popular leader, who added that when “it comes to placing the president's friend there is no longer feminism.”

These approaches have led Gamarra to question the sincerity of the President of the Government's call after his five-day reflection and to describe that announcement as a "farce" and a "numerito", which today is seen, as he described, as part of a "strategy". electoral if anyone had doubts."

Asked about the controversy arising from the alleged link between immigration and crime, in the area of ​​housing occupation, which Feijóo hinted at yesterday in a statement in Catalonia and which today the PP spokesperson, Borja Sémper, reiterated in an interview, Gamarra has differentiated between immigrants who arrive in Spain legally, "who come to contribute", and those who do so illegally, victims of "mafias" against whom "we must be firm", he has defended.

“In Catalonia there is an obvious, real problem of insecurity. Nobody has invented it: it is the data. And there is a problem of housing occupation, which is above the Spanish average,” said the general secretary of the PP, who has referred to the parliamentary measures proposed by her party to fight against occupation and recidivism.

“The other parties are not willing to fight against these two problems, which are caused by people in many cases who are illegally in our country. We do not look the other way, we have answers and solutions. It is what the Spanish expect, in this case the Catalans, who do not want an insecure Catalonia and where the occupiers have free reign,” he reiterated.

In any case, in Genoa they deny that the exposure of this thorny issue in the electoral campaign is the result of the close competition with Vox in Catalonia, where the far-right party is holding up in the polls more than was expected at the beginning of the campaign. “Our objective has nothing to do with other political forces, it goes much further. “We want to be a decisive force for the process to end,” he concluded, distancing himself from those who “promoted” it (ERC and Junts) and those who “resurrected” it (PSC), according to his analysis.
