The vice-president of the Government of Aragon, Mar Vaquero, expressed the “total disbelief” of the Executive regarding the offer and the disposition of Pilar Alegría, secretary general of the PSOE, to negotiate and support the spending ceiling presented by the Popular Party. Furthermore, he indicated that this position responds to the “fear and panic” of socialists regarding the elections.
This Monday, December 8, Pilar Alegría confirmed during an appearance that will support the spending cap in the Cortes and negotiate the budget with the President of AragonJorge Azcón, to propose an alternative to the far right of Vox.
The reaction of the autonomous government was not long in coming and Vice President Mar Vaquero spoke of “total disbelief and inconsistency” and considers that “it responds to the lie that surrounds the Socialist Party and Alegría every day”.
Furthermore, the Executive understands that This is due to the Socialist Party’s “fear of democratic elections”, as well as Alegría “panicked because it would mean having to leave the Council of Ministers, stop being minister and spokesperson of the Government and face all the Aragonese”.
Thus, they assure that the current minister of Sánchez “seeks to take refuge in lies and look for time” and Mar Vaquero emphasizes that it is “a joke for the Aragonese”. So he asks you not to use citizens or something as important as budgets. to “save time” and “try to hide the main problems that Alegría and the Socialist Party encountered” of Pedro Sánchez linked to corruption and machismo.
“The Popular Party will not go there, it will not whitewash the PSOE of Sánchez y Alegría, which He is the most anti-feminist, the most sexist and the most corrupt in history of democracy,” he analyzed.
Inconsistency
Thus, for the vice-president, the position is incoherent and lacks credibility, since by facilitating the capping of expenditure, the PSOE supports a fiscal policy (lowering taxes, eliminating inheritance taxes) which Alegría “blocked and voted against it throughout the legislature.”
“The only thing we heard about his tax treatment of the Aragonese was the announcement a few days ago of a tax on technological development in Aragon. This is totally incompatible with the model of prosperity and growth that we have been carrying out since the Government of Aragon,” Vaquero reflected.
Likewise, the budgets presented last Friday envisage the coordination of the baccalaureate, another measure that the PSOE rejected and that This adds to the People’s Party’s vision of “incongruity.”
In short, he summarized that Alegría, through the PSOEhas always voted against growth policies for Aragon, such as fair financing (supporting single financing for Catalonia) or measures to combat depopulation. He also did not talk about the Pyrenees Plan, the replacement of the emergency ambulance service in rural areas.
In this regard, Vaquero also criticized the Secretary General for continuing did not give explanations about his conversation with Paco Salazarnor what happened at the Teruel parador with Ábalos.
On the other hand, the Minister of the Presidency stressed that the Government of Aragon is receptive to Vox’s proposalswhich already supported the 2024 budgets.
