SANTA CRUZ DE TENERIFE, March 12. (EUROPE PRESS) –
The president of the Xunta de Galicia and sole candidate for the presidency of the PP, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, has defended this Saturday a party that will once again be majority with a project for Spain based on calm management and reformism.
This has been revealed during an act in Tenerife with militants and supporters together with the president of the PP of the Canary Islands, Manuel Domínguez, and the island president, Emilio Navarro, to present his project for the party.
“Spanish politics must return to centrality. I know that with this PSOE government, which is a sum of leftists and populism, together with its pro-independence partners, it is very difficult to achieve but I know what I believe in,” he observed.
Here, he explained that when politics in Spain was in the sphere of centrality “we were doing well”. “I’m very far from ‘it’s not no’ and ‘either you give me what I ask for or there are early elections’. I don’t like either of them,” he asserted.
On the reason why he has taken the step to preside over the PP, he indicated that after hearing so much noise and so much frivolity, he had to do it because “a new political time is needed in Spain and a new project that brings together the majority of citizens Spanish people”.
UNITE THE MAJORITY OF SPANIARDS
Likewise, he placed special emphasis on the fact that the country needs a project capable of uniting the majority of Spaniards. “Many problems in Spain could be resolved if we are capable of the PP once again achieving a majority party. We have had it with President Aznar and with President Rajoy,” he explained.
Regarding his model, he assured that it is a PP of majorities, a PSOE without leadership capacity, a nationalism in the opposition and that there is no representation either to the left of the PSOE or to the right of the PP.
All in all, Feijóo commented that his project is to offer Spain a better government than the one it has, “which is not difficult”, providing serenity, experience and certainties, “certainties that are so important in life that we all seek them”.
Here, he has pointed out that after so many years accumulating certainties, they are the ones that help him make decisions. “I believe in a management policy. To manage is to decide and to decide is to govern”, to remember that money is a scarce good susceptible to alternative uses. “And the management of citizens’ money is a priority in my policies,” she added.
Similarly, the Galician has prioritized public service in his project; a policy that favors growth and employment; an administration that facilitates problems; and a contained tax policy.
“WE DO NOT HAVE TO END WEALTH, BUT WITH POVERTY”
In this regard, he said that “we must not end with wealth, but with poverty. We cannot think that the problem is that money is earned, the problem is that people do not have jobs for a decent life.”
He has also stated that in the Conference of Presidents this Sunday in La Palma they can talk about lowering taxes on electricity, gas, gasoline or diesel. “That is governing – he added – and the rest is collecting.”
Finally, he opted for a calm reformism based on maintaining the institutional architecture of Spain, “the one we have created for forty years”, understanding that “surely it has some fault but that one thing is to rehabilitate a house that has to go down in history and another is to destroy the house every time Spain changes its government”.
“That is why I believe in calm reformism, which is what interests Spaniards,” he concluded.
