The leader of People’s PartyAlberto Núñez Feijóo, considers that the President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, is “lost” and “disconnected” from reality for comparing the pro-independence protest in Barcelona last Thursday with the constitutionalist demonstration that took place this Saturday in Madrid against the policies of the Government. Furthermore, he has claimed that The PP supported the concentration in Madrid but “has not appropriated it”referring to Vox.
This has been pronounced upon his arrival at the presentation ceremony of the candidates for the PP province mayoralties that is held in Madrid, when asked about the words of Sánchez, once again equating these two mobilizations already accuse the protesters of the Madrid convocation of defend a “uniform and exclusive Spain“.
contact with reality
In statements to the media, Feijóo has said, after those words by Sánchez, that he has the feeling that the chief executive is “a bit disconnected from reality” because “comparing once again to a demonstration in favor of the Constitution with a demonstration against the Constitution is to be a little lost.”
Having said this, the leader of the opposition – who attended this event accompanied by the Madrid president, Isabel Díaz Ayuso, and the mayor of the capital, José Luis Martínez-Almeida – has advised Pedro Sánchez “to have a little more contact with reality“.
When asked why he preferred not to attend that demonstration in Madrid, which was attended by the leader of Vox, Santiago Abascal, Feijóo has indicated that It was not a mobilization that the PP had called but that its formation supported it. “They are two different things,” she added.
Having said this, he has indicated that a civil society demonstration “what it wants is for citizens to go, not for politicians to appropriate it.” “For that reason, we have supported it but we have not appropriated it. The people who wanted to go out on the streets came out and PP leaders did too but it is a manifestation of the citizens”, has declared.
