SANTA CRUZ DE TENERIFE, March 12. (EUROPE PRESS) –
The president of the Xunta de Galicia and sole candidate for the presidency of the Popular Party (PP), Alberto Núñez Feijóo, has asked why he has to talk about pacts with other parties — in relation to the criticism received by the pact with Vox in Castilla y León– if what you want is a “broad pact” with the citizens.
This was revealed this Saturday 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.
“Why do I have to talk about pacts with other parties if what I want is a broad pact with citizens? Why do I have to talk about establishing vetoes if what matters to me is getting votes? Why do I have to choose between ‘it’s not no’ or ‘or with me or without anyone’?”, he questioned.
Feijó made special emphasis that he aspires to a different policy inspired by yesterday and thought of tomorrow, understanding that what has been called “new policy” is a “terrible policy”.
“And why do I have to say with whom ‘no’, if what it is about is with whom ‘yes’, which is with the majority of citizens? Those are the questions,” he asserted.
HE AFFIRMS THAT THE LEFT ALREADY HAS “THE BLAME OF EVERYTHING”
On the other hand, he understood that before being appointed as president of the PP, from the left they already blame him “for everything that has happened in Spain” in the last ten days.
However, Feijóo said that it is something he is used to, recalling that when he arrived at the Xunta in 2009 “they made a preventive demonstration”. “And it seems to be – he continued – that before being president of the PP of Spain I already have hundreds of preventive demonstrations in the country as a whole. It’s not bad, we started well”.
“They have said that I am a far-right and pro-communist, that I am a nationalist and a centralist… man, all that is a bit exaggerated. Now, having the ability to say it on the same day is already frankly exaggerated. It doesn’t strain, nobody believes it “, he exposed.
All in all, he has been convinced that Spain needs a “better” government and that a “much better” policy can be made than the one Spain currently “suffers from”.
“What have I done to the PSOE – he concluded -, in addition to always beating them, so that they insult me before taking office. Those of the PSOE in Galicia want me to leave there as soon as possible after 13 years beating them, I can understand it; and those of the national PSOE want him not even to take office as president, lest we beat them again”.
