“Feijóo solemnly declared at a PP event that he did not come to lie and told those present: ‘if I lie, expel me from the party’. Well, the time has come to expel him,” Patxi López, PSOE spokesperson in Congress, said on Friday. After last December 24, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, leader of the Popular Party, sent Judge Dana only the “WhatsApps” sent by Carlos Mazón on October 29, 2024 and not his own, the PSOE accuses Feijóo of having “lied to the Spaniards for more than a year to save Mazón”. In addition, they demand that he “transmit all the messages and all the conversations he had” with the former president, something the party leader himself announced last Thursday.
The spokesperson pointed the finger at the PP for having “diverted responsibility from the President” by accusing the government and Feijóo of having “added pain to the tragedy of the victims”, as indicated in the socialists’ statements. “For this reason, he should leave or they should fire him. But they won’t do it, because they are not in politics to have an alternative to the problems and needs of citizens. The only alternative the PP has is the one proposed by Vox,” he added.
In addition, Patxi López took the opportunity to praise his “social shield”, mentioning the latest decree-law approved by the Council of Ministers “which contains, for example, the increase in non-contributory pensions between seven and eleven percent”, among other measures, and which he has already predicted that the Popular Party would reject when trying to approve it in the Congress of Deputies. “The government will talk with the rest of the political parties to find a majority to approve this decree in the Congress of Deputies. However, we already know what the right of this country will do,” he assured, adding that “retirees, workers, the middle classes and women do not count on the PP at all.”
The socialists claim that the “obsession” of the popular people is to “destroy Pedro Sánchez, the progressive government and the PSOE” and emphasize that the only “objective” of their political agenda is “that the privileged have even more privileges”, “like those who benefit from private health care”, added López with a wink to the president of the Community of Madrid, Isabel Díaz Ayuso.
