• Repullo denounces the intentions of the Sánchez Government and recalls that Andalusia will defend its regional powers even in court if necessary
• Ensures that Montero's "supposed commission of experts" "does not meet the need for an efficient tax policy" because it does not have the CCAA, local entities, autonomous or representatives of society
The general coordinator of the Popular Party of Andalusia, Antonio Repullo, has urged the "candidate designated by Sánchez" for this community, Juan Espadas Cejas, to clarify "if he agrees with crunching Andalusians with more taxes, subtracting autonomy and losing a golden opportunity” that the Government of Juanma Moreno is offering to Andalusians by “lowering taxes” to generate more opportunities in this land.
In a regional meeting of the PP in Vega del Guadalquivir (Córdoba), which took place in the municipality of Palma del Río, Repullo recalled the axes of the government of change based on simplification "to make things easier for everyone ”, co-governance “with city councils and citizens who know the problems first-hand”, and with lower taxes “that is being put at risk by the Government of Sánchez, an insensitive government that wants to crack Andalusians with taxes in the but moment”, after the effects of the covid crisis and the current international scenario, “and reduce autonomy to Andalusia”.
In this regard, he has criticized the attitude of the Government of Sánchez, "which sent Minister Montero to represent him in the events of Andalusia Day and three days later we are presented with a program to increase taxation" with which the Socialists want " to put the wedge in the powers of the autonomous community that all Andalusians have earned in the last 40 years ”, which is why the popular ones even go to court before it.
The general coordinator, in addition, has criticized that these tax increases and attacks on Andalusian fiscal autonomy that the Sánchez Executive intends "try to shield him in a supposed commission in which we do not know who they are, but we do know who is not: the CCAA, local entities, the self-employed and representatives of society”. For this reason, "it is not an adequate commission of experts nor does it attend to the need or the direction required by an efficient fiscal policy that helps society", he pointed out.
For Repullo, "Andalusia is an example of what an adequate fiscal policy has to be that, by lowering taxes, has achieved an increase of 240.000 taxpayers in the last three years and an increase in collection of more than 850 million", and for that reason reason denounces that formations such as the PSOE "want us to pay inheritance and donation taxes again, pay more taxes on our income, remove deductions for people with disabilities and young people who wish to acquire a home in a small population center, and make it difficult with more taxes to those who want to access to create an activity”.
