Almeida predicts a "dirty" and "hateful" electoral campaign after the warning from Más Madrid that "there will be no peace in the streets"

The mayor of Madrid, José Luis Martínez-Almeida, has predicted that a "dirty" and "hateful" electoral campaign is looming from the left, which he has reproached for focusing on "confrontation and pointing fingers" after Más Madrid warned that "there will be no peace in the streets" of the capital following the eviction and subsequent death of Maricarmen.

"They are going to run a campaign of hate, of confrontation, of pointing fingers. They have already said: 'There will be no peace in the streets of Madrid,'" Almeida stated at a pre-campaign event of the PP held at Ifema, where he was accompanied by the president of the 'populars', Alberto Núñez Feijóo, and the president of the Community of Madrid, Isabel Díaz Ayuso.

In this scenario, the Madrid mayor has urged supporters of the Popular Party to get involved during the electoral campaign. "They are not going to drive us out of the streets nor are they going to win the elections," he emphasized, assuming that the socialists are going to "use La Moncloa for their rallies."

Almeida has announced that the PP plans to tour the 21 districts and all the neighborhoods of the city to convey their message to the residents and defend the need for political change. "We cannot lose a single second. Not one," he stressed, calling for "tireless" work until election day.

"THERE IS ONLY ONE PARTY CAPABLE OF UNITING A SOCIAL MAJORITY"

In his speech, the mayor expressed his support for Feijóo as the ideal alternative to lead the country and claimed the PP as the party "capable of uniting the social majority" and providing institutional stability. In this line, he argued that the upcoming elections represent a "historical responsibility" and appealed to those who wish to "think differently but live together."

Furthermore, Almeida criticized the central government's housing policy, joking that "they gave a house" to a couple of former minister José Luis Ábalos before giving one to the elderly Maricarmen, who was evicted from her apartment in the Retiro district a few weeks ago, a case that has generated social outrage amid a housing crisis.

To conclude, the mayor claimed that the PP embodies a Spain that defends the constitutional framework of 1978, the strengthening of institutions, and economic growth. He closed his speech assuring that the 'populars' will prevail at the polls because they are "better," quoting the late national football coach Luis Aragonés.
