Abascal presents November 29 as the "last opportunity" for Spaniards and promises "remigration" and national priority

The president of Vox, Santiago Abascal, has presented the general elections of the upcoming November 29 as the "last opportunity for an "immense majority of Spaniards", in an appearance in which he has outlined the main axes with which his party will face the electoral campaign.

Abascal has drawn a particularly negative balance of the legislature and has placed among his main criticisms of the current government corruption, the Ceuta crisis, housing, and the functioning of public services, especially healthcare and education. The leader of Vox has maintained that Spain is facing a "disastrous" panorama and has contrasted the increase in public revenue with what he considers a deterioration of the services offered by the State.

Accusations about the electoral process

Part of the appearance has been dedicated to questioning the guarantees with which, in Abascal's opinion, the electoral process can develop. The leader of Vox has accused the president of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, of being "capable of anything" and has warned about a possible manipulation of the elections, without specifying in this appearance how that supposed electoral fraud could be perpetrated.

In this context, Abascal has demanded "free, clean, and violence-free" elections and has raised the tone by warning about the actions of what he has called "militias," a term used by the Vox leader to refer to groups that, he claims, could intervene during the campaign.

"National priority," deregulation, and "remigration"

Abascal has also outlined three of the concepts on which Vox intends to build its electoral proposal: "national priority," deregulation, and "remigration". Under the first, the party proposes to give preference to Spaniards in certain public policies with the argument of preventing them from being "discriminated against in their own homeland."

The second axis involves reducing regulations, while the third again places immigration at the center of Vox's electoral strategy. Abascal has defended "remigration" as a way to reverse what he has termed a "migratory invasion," terminology characteristic of the party's discourse.

The president of Vox has also linked immigration with the pressure on public services and the difficulties of access to housing. This is a relationship that Abascal has presented as one of the central diagnoses of his formation in view of the 29-N.

In contrast to the assessment he makes of the legislature, Abascal has assured that Vox is "absolutely prepared" to offer its proposals to the country and has summarized its objectives in three concepts: "freedom, peace, and prosperity."

The 29-N as "the last opportunity"

The Vox leader has thus closed his first approach to the campaign by turning the early elections into a decisive appointment. "The last opportunity for an immense majority of Spaniards" is the phrase with which Abascal has defined the 29-N.
