The government entrusts it to the economy

The beginning of the new year is not as cold economically as anticipated by national and international institutions.

The strategy of the candidate to govern in the next legislature has to follow other paths, waiting for possible changes for the worse in the evolution of employment, growth and inflation.

The arguments are based on complaints and serious and far-reaching lawsuits: illegitimacy of the Government for its work, and for what it plans to do;

by the laws that it tries to impose on other powers of the State and, above all, by assignments to the independentistas.

The magnifying glass of the popular will not rise from the agreements between La Moncloa and the Generalitat of Catalonia.

One year ahead for the popular to demand the President of the Government to leave,

as happened between 1993 and 1996 with another leader of the PP and another socialist president.

A historical line links those times with the current ones.

A plan for "democratic regeneration" is already on the table of the president of the PP, Alberto Núñez Feijóo.

The vicissitudes around the blockade of the PP of the General Council of the Judiciary and the struggle in the Constitutional Court, this already in the process of normalization, give wings to the popular ones to place at the center of the debate the presentation of new regulations against "the occupation ” of the institutions.

In the first electoral stop in five months, municipal and regional elections, the PP aspires for its message that the Government harms Spain to fall above the work of regional presidents and socialist mayors.

Faced with the plans of the PP leadership, the Executive will oppose its daily management and the care not to get into unnecessary puddles.

The projects that they promote will be those that have their parliamentary support and do not grate in the ears of a social majority, according to government interlocutors.

All the ministers know this, which does not exclude that United We Can, including the second vice president, Yolanda Díaz, maintain the bar of their demands at the level that it already has at this time in different laws, such as the postponed Housing law.

The discrepancies within the coalition remain, but they do not want to add new ones, the sources consulted assure.

An optimism that is not entirely justified leads the Government to think that the actions in favor of those convicted and prosecuted for the independence challenge in Catalonia - the pardons of June 2021, the suppression of the crime of sedition and the reduction of the sentence in embezzlement nonprofit—will have an understanding of the potential socialist constituency.

What done is done.

Yes, but over and over again the president, the socialist ministers and the leaders of that party will be heard assuring that there will be no self-determination referendum in Catalonia.

Alberto Núñez Feijóo and the leadership of the PP invoke the Christmas speech of Pere Aragonès, president of the Generalitat.

His words revived the debate on self-determination to the disgust of the PSOE and some regional presidents.

The literalness of his words, however, provoked disdain and reaffirmation in the pro-independence circles, of course in Junts, that the Republicans are not going to fight for the referendum.

The Catalan president announced the promotion in 2023 of "a debate, a great conversation with the whole of society".

The objective is "to shape and visualize when Catalonia should be able to exercise the right to decide again, on what conditions it should vote again so that this time all parties feel included and everyone accepts the result."

This is nothing for the most radical independence movement.

Between now and the elections, those in May and those in December, evocations of the political Spain of 1993 will be inevitable.

The "go away, Mr. González" of October of that year by the then president of the PP, José María Aznar, has its parallelism in Feijóo's demands to Pedro Sánchez to advance the elections and leave La Moncloa.

This is how Aznar expressed himself: "Go away, Mr. González, you are responsible for the political, economic, and institutional degradation and the generalized climate of corruption in Spain."

His “Catalan partners”, from Convergència, contributed to this degradation.

"One propped up the other," Aznar maintained.

The battle against Felipe González was on all fronts.

There was "tension and tension", the popular leader acknowledged, but there was only one cause and one cause: "The obsession to remain in power at any price...".

"Mr. Sánchez, call elections, you want to satisfy your partners, you want to impose your personal interest."

This recrimination of Alberto Núñez Feijóo is permanent.

"Aznar was about to screw up the negotiation in Edinburgh," Felipe González exclaimed with the vehemence and lack of inhibition typical of a meeting environment.

He was in Valladolid in June 1994, on the eve of a European election.

González was referring to the European summit held in December 1992 in the Scottish capital in which he obtained funds for Spain of a historic amount, even in pesetas.

The funds were received in 1994. Aznar assured that with a government headed by him, the interests of Spain would be well defended and not as with González, who goes to Europe, he said, as a "beggar".

The parallelism of both periods also has Europe in mind.

The threat of denunciation before the European instances for actions of the Government, without specifying, are constant in the popular direction.

The historical common thread of the PP in its opposition strategies to the socialist governments unites stages and leaders.
