Feijóo in Barcelona: "Sánchez only cares about him"

The leader of the Popular Party, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, has proposed to open a "constitutionalist and Catalan space" in Catalonia so that the national center-right can once again be decisive.

Feijoo has intervened this Saturday at the closing of the 14 Provincial Congress of the PP in Barcelona where the only candidate who presented himself, Manu Reyes, has obtained 93.81% of the votes.

The president has taken advantage of the act to criticize the policy of the government of Pedro Sánchez -of which he has said that "he only cares about him"- and of the pro-independence formations that he has accused of not caring about the "real problems" of the citizenship.

Feijóo has been given a small bath of crowds this Saturday afternoon in the auditorium of the World Trade Center in Barcelona.

The leaders of the party in Catalonia and several dozen militants were waiting for him while he entered – the PP anthem has not been heard – with the tune

(Can't Stop This We Started) by Bryan Adams.

The president of the PP party began his speech by charging Sánchez and his government: “It is serious that Spain is the worst country in the European Union, incapable of recovering the wealth indices it had before the pandemic.”

Feijóo has criticized the policies of the central government team and then focused on the rival party: “The PSOE has dropped its number two, the spokesmen for the chambers, ministers, heads of cabinet and their key people.

If you change everything several times, except for the general secretary, and the party still doesn't work, perhaps the problem is the general secretary (Pedro Sánchez).

The secretary general and the president of the government fail and there are very rational indications that the culprit is the same person.”

After criticizing Sánchez, he has charged against the presidency of the Generalitat: "With all the problems that Catalan families have when Sánchez and Aragonés meet, they talk about dejudicializing politics. Is that what worries families?"

The president of the PP has concluded that the work of the militants of his party should be to modernize Catalonia: "Let's build the most important airport in the world, build a fourth ring road and reconnect Barcelona with the rest of the world."

Feijóo has defended that Spanish be spoken in the classrooms and has asked his militants: “Don't be afraid to put up tents, don't be afraid to shake hands with those who think differently.

It's not worth stopping talking.

Together with Feijóo, the president of the PP in Catalonia, Alejandro Fernández, closed the congress, who concluded: "When the PP has governed in Spain and the PP in Catalonia has been decisive, Catalonia has done very well. That is the way, we must recover the government of Spain and a solid, strong and decisive party”.
