The president of the Community of Madrid, Isabel Díaz Ayuso, has assured this Friday that the PP candidate for the Presidency of the Government, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, will push for a change in Spain “from the root from the beginning” if he manages to reach the Palacio de La Moncloa after the general elections on November 29, and that he will remove “activists from institutions.”
These statements were made by her in an interview on “Telecinco”, collected by Europa Press, in which she rejected that an attempt be made to compare Feijóo with previous stages of the party in which, as she has pointed out, “the opportunity of the absolute majority was not used for important reforms” and everything started to “go wrong” with the arrival of José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero.
Ayuso has said that “civil war mentality, historical memory, reaching an agreement with Bildu, with violent people, taking advantage of narco-states to do business, all of that started there, and there has to be a reform because reformist parties have to go to the root of the issues and get things back on track.”
She has also argued that during Pedro Sánchez’s time at the head of the Executive, a “fiscal voracity” has been consolidated and people have gained access to the institutions “to steal,” something, in her words, that has represented “the maximum decay.” Now, she has insisted, Feijóo will promote a “from the root” change and will remove “anyone who has even the slightest relation to a single plot,” as well as “party activists” who, in her view, have displaced technicians, experts and civil servants.
“All those people are going to go out into the street and all of this is going to be reformed. And it’s something that I talk to him about continuously,” Díaz Ayuso emphasized, who has highlighted that the ‘popular’ leader is “a committed man, who knows how to manage, who knows what’s going on and who is hurt by what is happening.”
Against the figure of the former Minister of Transport Óscar Puente, who resigned by defending that all politicians “are not the same,” Ayuso has stressed that, indeed, not all of them are because, otherwise, they would be “finished.”
In this context, she referred to a Government that, in her opinion, is “against work” and that aims “to equate to the face the minimum wage with the average wage” with the objective of “manufacturing poverty” and consolidating a country of “aggravated people earning a thousand euros a month.”
