Vox will file a complaint against Sánchez and ask the Supreme Court to suspend the investiture

The leader of Vox, Santiago Abascal, announced this Monday that his party will go to the Supreme Court this Tuesday to present a complaint against the acting president of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, for three alleged crimes in the amnesty law that has been agreed with Junts. . For this reason, and as a precautionary measure, he will ask the court to "suspend the investiture debate."

This is how the leader of the party, Santiago Abascal, described it in a press conference, after the president of Congress, Francina Armengol, has set a date for the call for the investiture debate for this Wednesday and Thursday.

Abascal has not detailed the crimes that Vox attributes to the president, but a week ago he did mention an alleged crime of bribery when promoting the amnesty law in exchange for his inauguration.

Likewise, the leader of Vox has defended the legality of the general strike called by Solidaridad, his related union, for next November 24, and has justified that in addition to a political motivation, the strike includes a labor motivation, two aspects "extremely united in the Sánchez pacts, because, among other things, the debt will only be condemned to a part of Spain, affecting the rest of the workers in our country and because the single Social Security fund will be put an end to.

"Vox is not going to accept this new normality. Vox is going to act in the streets, in the courts and, of course, in the governments that depend on us," said Abascal, who plans to "continue encouraging and supporting the demonstrations against the headquarters of the coup party", in reference to the PSOE.

Vox has also demanded that the PP call for institutional mobilizations in autonomous communities, councils and city councils, and have asked the party led by Alberto Núñez Feijóo to use its majority in the Senate to prevent the proposed amnesty law, and have insisted that the Congress Board should not give way to the amnesty law because it is "unconstitutional."
