- The secretary general of the Andalusian Popular Party points out the “complicated situation” in which Pedro Sánchez finds himself after the statement by Víctor de Aldama: “Before he was singled out by the courts, now he is implicated”
- He claims that PSOE-A is “the poorest and most destructive opposition that Andalusia has had: it defends the indefensible, an independence quota that harms Andalusia”
- He argues that the Junta and the Popular Party are focused on what is important: “The people, those affected by the DANA, public services and the countryside”
The secretary general of the PP in Andalusia said on Thursday that "we are faced with a PSOE in decomposition, a party that is slowly falling apart and we can see this in various ways."
On the one hand, he points out how Juan Espadas “goes to Madrid, to the Senate, to defend the indefensible, to defend the Catalan quota, to defend what is weighing down Andalusia.” “That is what Juan Espadas defends,” he stresses, “because he systematically defends the management of a president like Pedro Sánchez, who is tied up by his partners, who is incapable of governing and who has never looked at us in a good light, a president who has used hoaxes and lies to do politics in Andalusia.”
From his point of view, the PSOE-A “has a real embarrassment with the federal Congress that is also being held in Andalusia, in Seville”, because “the Socialist Party of Andalusia is incapable of proposing a single amendment in defence of the Andalusians, and in defence of their interests, because they have to defend those cuts caused by the Catalan quota and they are incapable of going against their leader, their top leader, Pedro Sánchez”.
Repullo stressed that “the PSOE of Andalusia is the poorest and most destructive opposition that Andalusia has ever had.” “They are not going to vote for the best person for Andalusia, they are going to vote for the person who can best lie and deceive the Andalusians. That is the reality,” he insisted.
He also stressed the “complicated situation” in which the PSOE finds itself, with a President of the Government “who was previously targeted by the courts, is now implicated”. He said this after learning of the first statements made by the commissioner in the 'Koldo case' in court.
“Just a few minutes ago we learned that Mr. Aldama, this gentleman, who we should not forget is Ábalos' partner, Koldo's partner, the friend of the Prime Minister, the confidant of Yolanda's Prime Minister, said that the President wanted to meet him, that he invited him to meet him because he was very interested not only in meeting him, but in thanking him for the services he had provided.”
“That is the reality that is being experienced right now in a court in the capital of Spain, where very serious crimes are being charged, not only important aspects of the government, but also everything that surrounds President Pedro Sánchez.” “Mr. Aldama is saying that both Ábalos and his lieutenant Koldo received commissions for performance and for contracts that were being carried out in the ministry that he headed, in the Ministry of Public Works and Transport.”
Spain needs to return to moderation and serious work, like Andalusia
Faced with this situation, the secretary of the PP in Andalusia has claimed that “Spain needs something else.”
“Spain needs to return to moderation, serious work and common effort,” he said, using Andalusia as an example. “A community that advances, that grows, that deeply respects its citizens and that believes in the politics of management, of fulfilled promises and of development.” “Without excuses and without nuances. Without useless battles and without social fractures,” he argued, concluding: “An Andalusia of the 21st century, of opportunities and of a future towards growth and innovation. An Andalusia with a single objective: to improve people’s lives.”
"Politics should focus on management and management only works with certainties," said Antonio Repullo, secretary general of the PP of Andalusia, on Thursday during a visit to the Almería municipality of El Ejido together with the mayor of the same, Francisco Góngora, and the provincial president of the party, Javier A. García.
As he explained, “the Popular Party is running in elections and is constantly working towards an objective that is not to govern for the sake of governing, but to manage, to try to overcome those challenges and concerns that the people of any part of our country have.” “And both Paco and Javier are two great examples of that management and of that generation of certainty, just like our president Juanma Moreno and the government of the Junta de Andalucía.”
After recalling that “Andalusia has lived for many years installed in promise. In expectation. In the desire for a future that never came”, Antonio Repulo has highlighted that “the Popular Party had to come, with Juanma Moreno at the head, to make the projects a reality and to lead our community to a new status of competitiveness, efficiency and progress”.
According to her, “Andalusia was fed up, tired of being deceived and tired of so many promises that were not kept and that did not make Andalusia the place that this land deserves and that all those who live in it deserve.” “Andalusia got tired of excuses and trusted, and continues to trust, in the Andalusian path of the PP and the government of Juanma Moreno and in their tireless task of defending Andalusia.”
Antonio Repullo has highlighted that “Juanma Moreno is a president who is involved in everyday life, in solving people's problems, but also when extraordinary issues occur, such as the Dana that has hit our region from end to end. Before, during and especially after, which is when a ruler is required to be on the side of those who have unfortunately been affected from a meteorological point of view and with the damage that the Dana has caused in this province.”
The good management of the PP is improving the lives of the residents of El Ejido
For his part, the president of the Partido Popular of Almería, Javier A. García, has underlined the good management that the mayor of El Ejido, Francisco Góngora, is carrying out in the municipality and has conveyed to him the full support of the PP at provincial and regional level. “The PP of Andalusia and Almería believe in the management that is carried out daily in El Ejido, a management that has transformed the town and has improved the quality of life of the Ejido residents,” he said.
Finally, the mayor, Francisco Góngora, thanked the secretary general of the Andalusian PP for his visit to El Ejido on a working day to analyse issues and projects of interest to the municipality. “Antonio Repullo is perfectly familiar with the current situation of all the municipalities in Andalusia and, among other matters, today we were able to review the management of the PP in El Ejido and the current economic-financial situation of the Town Hall, which has allowed us to pay 66% of the enormous debt inherited in 2011.”
He highlighted “the commitment of the PP governments to our municipality with projects from the Provincial Council, such as the Ejido Norte Pavilion or the Almerimar Sports Complex, and from the Andalusian Government, such as the Almerimar IES or the Ejido Nordeste Health Centre. On the other hand, Pedro Sánchez's Government has a long list of pending projects, such as the A7 links, Balerma Beach or the second desalination plant for the Poniente”.
Góngora has taken the opportunity to demand more aid from the Central Government for those affected by the Dana, as the damage in El Ejido exceeds 191 million.
