New movements in the PP after knowing the imprisonment of Santos Cerdán. The president of the party, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, has commissioned his parliamentary spokesman, Miguel Tellado, to call the groups that currently support the Government to know if they maintain that support for the Executive after the imprisonment of what was 'number three' of the PSOE.
Feijóo has reported this change in strategy in a message on social networks. He points out that these groups are, currently, “the only obstacle for Spaniards to speak and we can repair so much decline.” The president of the PP, of course, avoids the words 'motion of censure', a parliamentary capacity that the opposition has and has avoided presenting despite bitter with it during the last weeks.
The PP has had in the record the option of a motion of censure since the judicial problems for the PSOE began to be known. However, parliamentary arithmetic makes it complicated, today, that it could get ahead. Last week Feijóo had a meeting at the Congress of Deputies with the leader of Vox, Santiago Abascal, who has repeatedly urged the PP to make that movement, since the extreme right does not have enough deputies to boost it.
To get ahead, the PP would inevitably specify any of the groups that supported the investiture of Pedro Sánchez. To date, groups such as PNV or Junts have ruled out participating in this movement.
In this context, the PP had limited itself to publicly demanding the call for elections. The last to claim it was this Monday Cuca Gamarra, Outgoing General Secretary of the Partyafter ensuring that “Sanchismo is in prison without bail.” “It's time to dissolve the courts,” he said, for the Spaniards to go to the polls. Sánchez, he said, “has to leave the Moncloa immediately.” However, without a motion of censure through, the call for elections depends solely on the president of the Government. And Gamarra ruled out again to present it, since they do not give the numbers. “I think it's time to know what all those who have supported this government think,” he emphasized.
The PP, against the partners
At the edge of the noon, the PP parliamentary spokesman has appeared, Miguel Tellado, who has lashed out at Pedro Sánchez's partners after the imprisonment of the former PSOE Organization Secretary, Santos Cerdán. “The partners must realize the damage they do to the country and the damage that they make themselves,” he said in a press conference in which he has assumed his impossibility to tie the necessary support for a motion of censure headed by his boss of rows
Before, Podemos and ERC had already said that they are not going to take the phone and Junts has claimed a meeting with Carles Puigdemont in Waterloo. Without denying this option expressly, Tellado has assured: “We are not going to do what we have criticized others. We are not like the PSOE. If we had as few scruples as the PSOE, Feijóo would have been presided after the 23J elections.” Then, the PP raised an pardon for Puigdemont.
“We believe that all corruption is delznable,” said the PP spokesman. “History will judge what each one has done,” he said. “The situation is unsustainable and unbearable,” he added. “They have to choose, or break with Sanchez or their corruption will break them,” he has settled.
