Sánchez highlights the growth of Spain before the speech of the PP

"The best Spain is the one that grows and creates employment", proclaims Pedro Sánchez to the four winds. The President of the Central Government, and a good part of the PSOE ministers, went out yesterday in a block to oppose the good figures and forecasts that Spain is registering, in terms of economic growth and job creation, to the "catastrophist" speech of Alberto Núñez Feijóo . Sánchez presented "data and realities", to confront them with "the malastrucs of the apocalypse".

Pedro Sánchez and the ministers Félix Bolaños, María Jesús Montero, José Luis Escrivá and Pilar Alegría, among others, wielded the data of international bodies such as the OECD and Eurostat, which certify the strength of the growth of the economy, the good rate of job creation and the reduction of inflation in Spain, while the PP leader warned of economic stagnation.

"Feijóo has once again shown that he is an undocumented catastrophist, he has lied to international investors because he has assured that the Spanish economy is in decline and stagnant", replied the Minister of Finance and Deputy General Secretary of the PSOE, María Jesús Montero. "The only thing that is stagnant and in decline is its credibility", he denounced.

The Minister of the Presidency, Félix Bolaños, warned at the same time that even if Feijóo "questions" the figures of these international organizations, "this is the reality of our country, with a very solid and very powerful economic growth that is generating jobs work with rights".

"And in front of us we have a PP that has no economic project, that has no proposals and that does not even have a person to defend its economic model", criticized Bolaños.

The Socialists are looking forward to a first televised debate between Sánchez and Feijóo, but they also want a face-to-face meeting on economic policy, in which Vice President Nadia Calviño could compete with... Whoever appoints the leader of the pp.

"What is the economic project of the PP? What will it repeal, the recovery plan, the indefinite contracts, the almost 21 million members we have in the Social Security?”, demanded Bolaños. "The PP finds it difficult to talk about the economy and employment, and it is obvious that it is not interested in this debate at all, because the economy and employment in Spain are doing very well", he pointed out. And he regretted that this is why the PP will resort to "toxic campaigns" to cover up the good economic management of the Spanish Government.

Sánchez, on the other hand, will place the head of his cabinet in La Moncloa on the PSOE lists for 23- J. Yesterday the candidacy proposal for Madrid was completed, in which Óscar López, chief of staff of the presidency of the Central government, joins the number seven place. The director of his cabinet, Pilar Sánchez Acera, is also joining the Madrid candidacy, while his deputy, Antonio Hernando, heads the list for Almeria.
