MADRID, 4 Oct. (EUROPA PRESS) –
The parliamentary spokesperson for the PP, Cuca Gamarra, lamented this Tuesday in Congress that the new General State Budgets for 2023 agreed by PSOE and United We Can are not in line with the “rebellion of the barons” of the PSOE to lower taxes, has urged “sanchismo” to unite.
Thus, he said at a press conference that “not even the socialist barons believe in Pedro Sánchez” and “they seek to distance themselves from their fiscal policy”, since if last week the president of the Valencian Community, Ximo Puig, announced reductions in Personal income tax, this week has been the one from Castilla-La Mancha, Emiliano García-Page, who has supported “that rebellion of barons”.
Gamarra has said that the PP “would have liked to speak” with the government before the agreement “to draw up the accounts and adapt them to the moment in which Spaniards live”, with “measures to contain inflation and the crisis”.
“From that dialogue we would have proposed fiscal measures that would have reached the middle classes,” said Gamarra, citing the deflation of personal income tax and the reduction of VAT on basic products in the shopping basket, and to apply them immediately and not from the next January 1
Asked about the fact that the coalition government has been presenting public accounts for three years in a row to have them approved on January 1, after years without Budgets or approved in the middle of the year due to lack of support from the last Rajoy Government, Gamarra It has been asked “in exchange for what” these accounts have been approved.
Thus, he has stated that these projects were approved to “guarantee” the continuity of Pedro Sánchez in Moncloa and “at very high prices”, since they consider that the accounts for 2021 and 2022 have been those of “prisoners for Budgets” –recalling the motto with which they defined the accounts of previous years, in reference to the subsequent release from prison of the Catalan independence leaders and prisoners of ETA– and that for this exercise from EH-Bildu has said that there are “pending issues” to fulfill.
