MADRID, 21 Mar. (EUROPA PRESS) –
The President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, today accused Vox of spreading hatred in the country and providing a “plus of brutality” to the PP, being the “glutamate” of the right, after qualifying the motion of no confidence against the Executive, that has been debated since this morning in Parliament, as “delusional”. Likewise, he considers that the abstention of the ‘popular’ is a “deferred payment”.
The head of the Executive has intervened to respond to Santiago Abascal, after he has presented the candidate Ramón Tamames after attacking the Government and requesting the support of the PP for his motion and early elections. However, Pedro Sánchez has not mentioned the name of the candidate throughout his speech, limiting himself to accusing Abascal of hiding behind him.
For Sánchez, it is a “bizarre” and “delusional” motion, but one that he believes shows that the “abstention” of the PP –in contrast to the “no” of this party in the first motion it presented– is a ” deferred payment, a cash advance, as is done at home, going from not decent to indecent abstention”. In addition, he has warned that “the extreme right is going to demand a second payment” from those of Feijóo.
But although he has disqualified the motion, he has not wanted to despise it because he considers that it gives him the opportunity to “closely observe” its promoters and reflect on their usefulness, that is, to find out what the extreme right has contributed to Spain and to know “what is VOX for”.
In his opinion, the motion is presented by someone who enjoys appearing to be the “prophet” announcing the apocalypse but who, after announcing a social emergency, took a 100-day layoff to end up putting on “this parliamentary show.”
Having said this, Pedro Sánchez has gone on to explain what, in his opinion, is the “brief but intense” parliamentary legacy of Abascal’s party. In this sense, he has indicated that he has not contributed a single measure in favor of coexistence between Spaniards and has summarized his actions by assuring: “In the streets, agitation, in the stands, anger, insults, in Parliament, two sterile motions and in all parts, hate.”
It has also affected the similarity that exists, as he has said, with the PP. “Like two peas in a pod”, he said before pointing out that both parties promote regressive policies and vote against all progressive government measures even in difficult times such as the pandemic and war.
However, he has pointed out that the “only difference” between the PP and Vox is that the latter party provides a “plus of brutality” and they only know how to point out “false culprits” and “direct hatred and frustration” against those who suffer from problems .
In this sense, he has blurted out that Vox is to Spanish politics like ultra-processed food is to the Mediterranean diet, with a discourse of “harmful messages” and turned into the “glutamate of the right”, thus alluding to an ingredient that is used to enhance the flavor of food.
Having said this, he has gone on to explain that VOX has not presented the motion neither for the unity of Spain, nor for the Constitution –by the way accusing the PP of being the only one to fail to comply with it for not renewing the CGPJ–, nor for Catalonia, Not for the economy.
The real reasons, he said, are that this government is taking to the BOE everything for which this country mobilized against the neoliberal response during the financial crisis and has taken the opportunity to mention the issues approved by his government such as the increase in pensions , scholarships, the Minimum Interprofessional Salary or the improvement in dependency or the increase in health contracts.
